Dr. Pallavi Patel Kavety, DDS

Top3Doctors.com selected Dr. Pallavi Kavety as a top pediatric dentist in Pasadena because of her specialty training, her board certification, and the practice she built from the ground up. She earned her DDS at the USC School of Dentistry and then completed her pediatric dentistry specialty program at NYU. In 2014, she became a Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry. Pasadena Magazine named her a Top Doctor in 2024, and she was named a Top Dentist by Pasadena Magazine and Los Angeles Magazine in 2025. That mix of training and local recognition gives parents confidence.

What we like most about Dr. Kavety is the way she has shaped her own practice around children. She opened Pasadena Children’s Dentistry & Orthodontics on East Colorado Boulevard in 2019, after nearly a decade caring for kids in the San Gabriel Valley. Her team includes other pediatric dentists and an orthodontist, so families can get checkups, fillings, sedation dentistry, braces, and Invisalign under one roof. She describes her style as conservative and child focused. She also owns Thrive Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics in Northridge. For these reasons, Top3Doctors.com proudly names Dr. Pallavi Kavety among the top three pediatric dentists in Pasadena.
