Meet Your Specialist
DDS, MS, FACP — Board-Certified Prosthodontist
A prosthodontist is a dental specialist with advanced training in restoring and replacing damaged or missing teeth to enhance patients' oral health and smile aesthetics.
While other dentists refer to us, you do not need a referral to see Dr. Andrus.
A Note From Dr. Andrus
“When I decided to become a dentist, I knew I wanted to work with the most extreme cases to make the biggest difference in the lives of my patients. That meant specializing in prosthodontics, just like my father.
After dental school, serving in the Air Force and completing my specialty training, my wife and I returned to Utah. My goal is to improve your dental health and give you a functional, attractive smile that meets your unique needs.
I'm proud that my training, skill and experience can make this possible for you.”

Thousands of implants successfully planned or placed — and the entire procedure can happen in one location with one specialist.
