Your Trusted Private Practice Dentist

Dedicated to providing compassionate, community-focused dental care.

Dr. Russell Staggs

About Dr. Staggs

Dr. Russell Staggs resides in New Palestine with his wife and two children. His father and wife are both dentists. Growing up in upstate New York, Dr. Staggs is a transplanted Hoosier. 

Education and Dental Legacy

His parents & grandparents were from Indiana. Therefore, attending Indiana University in Bloomington was a perfect fit, as was attending Indiana University School of Dentistry (DDS 1998). Indiana University was the alma mater of his father, Stephen D. Staggs, DDS 1962. So Dr. Staggs followed in his father's footsteps a mere 36 years later.

Early Career and Community Service

Early Career and Community Service

Following graduation from the IU School of Dentistry in 1998, Dr. Staggs spent a year in an inner-city clinic. The Citizens’ Health Center, located at 16th & College in Downtown Indianapolis, was a great resource for dental training and care. It was an opportunity to give back to the community and learn the essentials of patient care.

Private Practice Experience

Early Career and Community Service

The following years have been spent in private practice. Dr. Staggs operated a private practice in Greensburg, Indiana. The opportunity to practice in Greensburg imparted much more than Dr. Staggs can ever describe, including a loyal staff, patients, and relationships with local businesses, which are the cornerstone of any healthcare practice.
