Our Family Caring for Yours: The Story of Dr. Dixon’s Cali KiDDS Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics

Welcome to Dr. Dixon’s Cali KiDDS! We are a small group of specialty trained pediatric dentists and orthodontists led by a husband-and-wife team dedicated to providing 5-star pediatric dentistry and orthodontics for families in Del Mar, Carmel Valley, and Pacific Highlands Ranch.

When you walk through our doors, you aren't just a patient—you’re our neighbor. Unlike the growing number of corporate dental chains, we are 100% family-owned and operated. We believe every child deserves to be treated with the same gentleness, patience, and expertise we would want for our own two boys

Generations of Care

Our roots in San Diego run deep. The practice was originally founded by Dr. Eric’s father, Dr. Howard Dixon, who has served the San Diego community for over 50 years. Dr. Dixon built a reputation for kindness and integrity that we are proud to carry forward today. His love for his patients still shines through as he continues to care for patients to this day.

While our values remain traditional, our office is brand new. In 2025, we realized our dream of building a "forever home" for our practice in the heart of Pacific Highlands Ranch (92130). Our new state-of-the-art facility was designed from the ground up to be a modern, fun, and anxiety-free space where kids actually want to visit..

Whether you are looking for your baby’s first dental home or Invisalign for your teenager, we are honored to serve you. Come visit us at our new office on Village Way—we can’t wait to meet you!


Our Promise…

We promise to treat your children with the same compassion and conservative approach we use for our own kids. All of our doctors provide the highest quality, honest, expert care for your growing family.
