We’ll Ensure Your Child’s First Dental Visit Goes Well

To ensure your child has a positive association with the family dentist for years to come, we make the first dental visit fun. Before your little one’s first dental cleaning and exam, we recommend a fun tour with an older sibling. This allows your child to get comfortable with the setting of our office and meet Dr. Eccles and our friendly team. Your kiddos will enjoy:

  • A treasure tower with toys
  • Cool toothbrushes for your older children
  • Our quarterly drawing for stuffed animals

When it comes time for your child to sit in the patient chair, you can go in the exam room with them. We have found that most of the time, all your child needs is a little encouragement and familiarity. Together, we can ensure your child looks forward to seeing the family dentist!

If you’re ready to treat your loved ones to quality dental care, come see our family dentist in Plainfield. Call Rod Eccles, DDS at 317-682-0884 or schedule online.

Common Questions About Family Dentistry

What is family dentistry?

While every member of your family needs regular exams and cleanings to keep their teeth in great shape, some of them may need additional services, such as cosmetic treatments or restorative care. With our family dentistry, they can get them all in one place. Our team cares for smiles of all ages, from 3 and up.

Why go to a family dentist?

Your family calendar will be less crazy if everyone can visit the same dentist. Payment is easier too because we can handle all of your insurance claims for you. If you don’t have insurance, your family can join our Smile Care Club. You’ll make monthly payments to cover the costs of your routine dental care and receive a 10 percent discount on most other services.

What qualifications should I look for in a family dentist?

You’ll want to visit an office where every member of your family feels comfortable. Everyone enjoys the relaxing atmosphere at Rod Eccles, DDS with our beautiful wooded view. You may even see birds at our feeders while we care for your smiles! With more than 30 years in practice, Dr. Eccles puts patients of any age at ease. Members of our team are parents and especially enjoy working with kids.

When should a child first visit the dentist?

A child’s first dental appointment should happen around their first birthday or within six months of the eruption of their first baby tooth. Some dentists prefer to treat children who are at least 3 years old or older, while others have special training in pediatric care and can help parents soothe a teething child or offer help with thumbsucking. We see children starting around age 2.
