A disc brake for a utility vehicle includes a brake caliper that is in the form of a sliding caliper and overlaps a brake disc; two brake pads which are located in the brake caliper, can be moved in opposite directions in the direction of the brake disc, each have a pad backing plate and a friction lining fastened thereto, and are each located in a pad shaft of a vehicle-side brake carrier, which pad shaft is delimited in the direction of rotation of the brake disc by brake carrier horns; and at least one restoring device by which the brake pads can be restored after a braking-related movement and release of the brake. The restoring device has at least one restoring element which is attached to a brake pad, is located between the brake pad and a stationary component, and exerts a restoring force on the brake pad, the at least one restoring element being in the form of a leaf spring which is fastened on the rear side of the pad backing plate facing away from the friction lining and has a spring arm which extends in the peripheral direction of the brake disc and is supported against the brake carrier as a stationary component.
