Mark L Pettit, DDS

Specialties

Great smile… healthy teeth! Our first priority is your overall dental health. You may just need a scheduled cleaning and an exam — or you might need an implant or a root canal. Either way, we will provide you with the best treatment available. You can feel confident that your smile will be healthy and look great!

Dr. Pettit uses the following technologies to keep your mouth the healthiest it can be:

— Digital x-​rays to minimize radiation exposure

— All-​ceramic crowns for exceptional beauty and strength, with no metal

— Custom-​designed implant restorations so your implant doesn’t look like a «lollipop on a stick»

— A select network of specialists (orthodontists, endodontists, oral surgeons and periodontists) to meet all your dental needs

— Laser dentistry for gum contouring or access for treatment

— Text and email communications for appointments

What you will be most impressed with is the attentive, un-​rushed care you will receive. Our patients are «raving fans» and you will be too. If you’re looking for an office who takes dentistry seriously, but likes to laugh and have a good time (yes, this is possible at a dental office) then give us a call. By the way, if you like oldies music (60s, 70s, 80s) be sure to schedule an appointment on a Thursday.

Business Owner

Dr. Pettit graduated from Brigham Young University with a degree in Zoology. He then graduated from Creighton University School of Dentistry with a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. He continues to serve in his profession as a past delegate to the Utah Dental Association and is a past president of a local dentists study club. He actively keeps up with changes in dentistry with many hours of continuing education each year.

Dr. Pettit grew up in Northern California and now resides in Salt Lake City with his wife Becky and their 3 sons. He enjoys cycling (mountain biking is great — but road is religion) and skiing (can’t ride all the time and need to do something in the winter).

His favorite new toy is a digital x-​ray system. He wishes it were a new bike, but the digital x-​ray system was for the greater good of all. His goal for the year is to drink less soda and more water (he is a dentist after all), and to ride his bike to work more often.
