✨Meet Mariah, our New Patient Coordinator✨

Originally from Las Vegas, Mariah made the move to North County in 2015 and quickly fell in love with the community and coastal lifestyle. Over the past four years in the dental field, I’ve had the opportunity to work alongside several amazing specialists, and I’ve discovered a true passion for periodontics. I love that every day brings new opportunities to learn, grow, and help patients feel more confident in their smiles.

My favorite part of what I do is building genuine connections with patients and making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and supported from the moment they walk through our doors. I believe everyone deserves to be treated like family, and I’m proud to be part of the Encinitas Perio team that shares that same patient-first approach to care.

Outside the office, I’m the oldest of five sisters, which has taught me a lot about patience, compassion, and leadership. In my free time, you can usually find me practicing yoga, baking something sweet, planning my next trip, or spending quality time with family and friends!

▪️Dr. Dan Roberts ▪️

I am a Southern California native who is passionate about my work.
Upon completing my post doctoral training in periodontics, I moved to Encinitas and have been taking care of patients in this area for the past 40 years. I am the founder of Encinitas Perio and am proud to still be part of this great team.

As my days in the office decrease, I am so happy to have such a skilled clinician as Dr. Chris Traxler to take over. We have worked happily together for 7 years and he has been my boss for the past 5 years. His leadership and our love for our patients assures our clients that they will always receive the level of care they expect.

During the past year, you may have been lucky enough to meet our latest clinician, Dr. Nick Wright. His presence in our practice is no accident. A highly respected colleague, told me Nick is the best perio resident she has trained, he is from North County, he’s a great guy, you have to hire him. She was so right, Nick has been a great asset to our team. I am confident my patients are well cared for when I am away from the office.

Patients who have known me for decades often ask me when I plan to retire. By practicing fewer days a month, I am so blessed to have more time to spend with my wife, Kathy, and both of my kids and my grandkids, who all live nearby. I have ample activities pulling me away from dentistry: surfing, skiing, foil boarding, mountain biking, diving, even golfing. Perhaps you have danced to Novocaine—the all dental band where I play the bass. I continue practicing because I love my patients, I love what I do, and I love our team. Every day I get to meet interesting new people. How can I retire and walk away from so many friends? I’m blessed to be living my best life.

✨Reintroducing Dr. Traxler ✨

Dr. Traxler is passionate about restoring periodontal health and helping patients maintain their natural smiles. His approach focuses on achieving outstanding esthetic and functional results through precise soft tissue management and implant placement; always with a patient centered, multidisciplinary philosophy rooted in integrity and open communication.

Originally from San Diego and raised in Phoenix, he earned his B.S. from Arizona State University before beginning his career with Boeing. He later followed his passion for dentistry, earning his D.D.S. from UCSF and completing his specialty training and M.S. in Periodontics at the University of Illinois at Chicago, with research in tissue engineering and biomimetics.

Dr. Traxler enjoys spending time with his wife Lisa and his two sons, Lucas and Miles. Outside the office, he enjoys music, sports, the outdoors, and volunteering. He looks forward to meeting more patients and helping you achieve a healthy, confident smile!
