Quick Summary: Sugar City is a town of about 1,700 people, five miles up US-20 from our Rexburg office. We see the full range of the town’s needs, from a longtime homeowner’s checkup to a child’s first visit, without the drive to Idaho Falls.
Sugar City still works the way a small town should. The blocks around Sugar Ave and Center St carry most of the daily traffic. Neighbors wave. And when families here pick a dentist, they want one close enough that a cleaning does not eat a whole afternoon.
That is where we come in. Family First Dental in Rexburg sits five miles down US-20, and Dr. Craig Stout brings 20 years of experience to every visit. We treat kids ages 4 and up through grandparents, all in one office.
One appointment might be a retired farmer whose older dental work needs a fresh X-ray. The next might be a young family booking a first visit. We plan for both, and we can schedule a household back to back so one drive covers everyone.
The town’s past runs deep. Sugar City grew up around a sugar beet factory, which gave the town its name, and much of it was rebuilt after the Teton Dam flood in 1976. The full history of Sugar City is worth a read if you have never dug into it.
Longtime residents now live beside newer families, and that mix shows up in our schedule. Some patients bring decades of dental history, old crowns, and fillings that predate their kids. Others are just getting started and need a first exam on record.
Either way, every visit starts at the screen. AI-assisted X-rays and cone beam scans come up right in front of you. You see what we see, in plain language, before we talk about any treatment. Nervous patients can ask about nitrous oxide, which we offer to keep visits calm.
US-20 runs along the west edge of town, and Rexburg sits about five miles down the highway. Most Sugar City patients make the drive in about ten minutes. Our office is at 286 E Moody Rd, Suite F, with parking right outside the door.
We built our hours around that commute. Tuesday and Thursday run until 7 PM. Saturday runs 8 AM to 1 PM. Nobody has to skip a shift or pull a kid out of school for a cleaning.

Sugar City households often span generations. A grandparent with decades of dental history might live a few blocks from a kindergartner due for a checkup. We treat both ends of that spectrum.
For the youngest patients, our pediatric dental care starts at age 4. Visits stay gentle and unhurried, and sealants and fluoride help protect new teeth. Parents can book their own cleaning in the same block.
For adults and seniors, we handle fillings, crowns, dentures, and gum care. Dr. Stout walks every patient through their own images, whether you have seen a dentist every six months or skipped a few years. That habit builds trust fast.
Emergencies get their own lane. A bad toothache or a broken tooth cannot wait two weeks, so we hold time on the schedule for same-day visits. Call first thing and we will fit you in.
There is one perk worth repeating for a town this loyal. Every active patient gets free whitening for life. Keep up your regular cleanings and a brighter smile stays part of the deal, at no extra cost, year after year.
