Dr. Michael Chilton

Just off Bountiful’s 500 West, between the quiet residential blocks and the hum of downtown, sits a dental practice that serves the area’s routine checkups and more complex needs alike. Dr. Michael Chilton operates from 24 S 500 W Suite D, a spot that’s easy to miss if you’re not looking for it—though regulars know it by the unassuming signage and the steady flow of patients coming and going. This isn’t the kind of place that advertises with flashy banners or social media campaigns. Instead, it relies on the kind of word-of-mouth that comes from filling cavities, fitting crowns, and handling the occasional emergency extraction without fanfare. For those who prefer to call ahead rather than walk in, the number is (801) 296-1606—useful for scheduling cleanings or asking about same-day availability when a toothache strikes at an inconvenient hour.

The building itself is part of a small professional complex, the kind that houses a mix of medical offices and quiet businesses catering to locals rather than tourists. Dentistry, by nature, isn’t a service people seek out for pleasure, but it’s one of those necessities that keeps a neighborhood running smoothly—like a well-maintained sidewalk or a reliable postal route. Whether it’s a child’s first filling or an adult’s long-overdue wisdom tooth removal, the work done here covers the spectrum of oral care without specialization in any single niche. The map confirms what locals already know: it’s a short drive from the freeway, tucked into a stretch of Bountiful that’s more functional than flashy. No surprises, no gimmicks—just the steady rhythm of a practice that’s been part of the community long enough to feel permanent.
