Dr Victoria Dixon is a highly experienced orthodontist and partner at Orchard Dental Practice. After qualifying as a dentist, she undertook specialist training and has worked in the orthodontic department at Eastbourne District General Hospital as well as in private practice.
She is passionate about providing the highest level of orthodontic care to patients of all ages, combining technical expertise with a warm and approachable manner.
A specialist orthodontist is a qualified dentist who has completed an additional three years of postgraduate training solely in orthodontics — the field focused on diagnosing, preventing, and correcting misaligned teeth and jaws. This advanced training leads to a recognised qualification (such as an MSc in Orthodontics) and specialist registration with the General Dental Council (GDC).
Our own specialist, Dr Victoria Dixon (BDS FDS MSc M Orth RCS Eng), completed her dental degree in 1992 and pursued extensive postgraduate orthodontic training at Manchester University. With decades of experience in both hospital and private practice settings, Victoria brings advanced expertise to every case she treats.
While general dentists are highly skilled and often offer orthodontic treatments like Invisalign or braces, they do not have the same depth of specialist training as an orthodontist.
