'Dr. Dixon and his staff are first class. I 'm very confident that I 'm getting the best dental care possible. I 've been a patient since 1988 and have always been super impressed with Dr. Dixon 's technical skills. He 's performed several procedures on my teeth (crowns, etc.) and I 've never has any issues. I also know that Dr. Dixon makes the extra effort to regularly attend continuing education seminars to stay current. He regularly updates his equipment, maintaining a state of the art practice. I 'm a huge fan!'

Hello, I am Dr. Brad Dixon. Welcome to our dental office. In 1984, I set out to develop a practice dedicated to providing an atmosphere where compassion, professionalism, and service merge seamlessly. I have put together a dental team that shares that philosophy. Together we make excellence in dentistry a reality for patients of all ages.

We provide a comprehensive range of dentistryservices combining technology with a warm, family feel, and good humor. We value each patient, know you by name, and really care about your health and happiness.

In our office, you'll find patient comfort to be a top priority. We've made the investment in training, equipment, and furnishings to ensure that you have the gentlest, most pleasant dental experience possible. You may not take particular notice of the inviting chairs, blankets, warm towels, exam room televisions, chair-side computers, or complimentary lip balm and samples, but you'll be imbued with an overall sense of assurance in our care.

Our focus is on preventive care. We would rather help you maintain a healthy mouth than treat problems after you have had inconvenience, discomfort, and additional expense as they advance. This belief is illustrated in our commitment to patient education and state-of-the-art diagnostic technologies.

When restorative care is needed, you can count on us for the gentlest, least-invasive techniques available. We treat you as a person, not just your teeth, with services extending far beyond fillings and extractions to dental implants, gum care, anti-snoring appliances, and treatment for headaches and jaw pain.

With our extensive training and experience in modern cosmetic dentistry, you can attain the smile of your dreams. Whitening, porcelain veneers, tooth-colored fillings, and dentures keep your smile functional and truly appealing. You'll enjoy natural confidence in all of your business and social interactions that comes from knowing you look terrific.

Brad Dixon, DMD - General dentist in Gainesville, GA

You've probably seen the initials DMD, FAGD, and MAGD but have you ever really thought about what they mean? Dr. Dixon has dedicated his working career to becoming a true Doctor of Dental Medicine and earning the distinction of Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry (which requires an additional 1,100 hours of continuing education). Why? Because he believes that each patient deserves that level of expertise. He then went on to become a Master in the Academy of General Dentistry.

Dr. Dixon knows Georgia and the people who live here he is a native of Gainesville and has raised his own family in this area. He graduated from Oxford College, and obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in chemistry from Emory in 1980. The Medical College of Georgia School of Dentistry granted his Doctorate of Dental Medicine in 1984, and he moved directly into private practice.

But Dr. Dixon believes that education isn 't 'once and done.' His commitment to continuing education includes the L. D. Pankey Institute for Advanced Dental Education (Continuums I-IV); a comprehensive series from Creating Restorative Excellence, Inc.; Anesthesia and Pain Control from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York; the Esthetic Dentistry Continuum from Louisiana State University School of Dentistry; Institute for Advanced Laser Dentistry continuum in LANAP technique; the Georgia AGD MasterTrack course; attendance at BioRESEARCH Associates, Inc; BioPAK certification in Electrognathic Studies and the list continues to grow.

Dr. Dixon received the American Academy of Oral Medicine Certificate of Merit and Senior Clinic Honor Student award from the Medical College of Georgia School of Dentistry in 1984; and the American Cancer Society's Certificate of Merit in 1985. His FAGD followed in 1995, along with the post of President for the Hall County Dental Society that same year. He earned Fellowship in the Academy of Comprehensive Esthetics in 2006 and in the Institute for Advanced Laser Dentistry in 2008. He has held the distinction of Master in the Academy of General Dentistry since 2009.

Dr. Dixon's involvement in the Gainesville community doesn't end with his patients' teeth. He has served on the Board of Directors for the Gainesville Jaycees, and as a Trustee for Gainesville First United Methodist Church. He was also in the Gainesville Booster Club where he served as President. He is a former player and a lifetime football enthusiast, currently acting as an unofficial photographer for the Gainesville High School Red Elephants.

Dr. Brad Dixon is a dental specialist in Gainesville, Georgia who uses advanced dentistry techniques to provide his patients with the absolute best dental care available. At Dr. Dixons office, the basic concepts of dental treatment remain at the core of patient care. However, the advanced dental technologies and techniques his team uses to deliver dental care truly set him apart as one of Gainesvilles premier dentists.

Dr. Dixon and his team simply believe that patients deserve the best care available. They make it a reality through a tremendous investment in advanced equipment, training and skills. Here are a few examples of the level of technology in use every day at our practice:

  • DIAGNOdent This amazing laser device allow us to painlessly find tiny dental imperfections (such as minute cavities on the chewing surfaces of back teeth), long before they could be discovered with conventional examination methods. This small, portable unit gives an audible signal and numeric readout to identify the location and size of the cavity.
  • Digital x-rays and radiography This low-radiation option is faster and quite comfortable for you, and it provides instant, precise images for us. We view them together on the chairside computer monitor, so you fully understand the diagnosis.
  • Intra-oral camera This little camera about the shape and size of a dental mirror gives us a panoramic view of all that's going on in your mouth. We take a video tour of your oral cavity. The ability to zoom in on problem areas makes this an ideal educational tool.
  • Isolite This device allows your mouth to rest in an open position and pillows your tongue, making long procedures more relaxed. It also provides superior illumination to aid our dental team in working efficiently and effectively.
  • NTI-tss Night Guard This small, comfortable night guard which has been cleared by the FDA is a non-narcotic method of preventing migraines. We also fit patients with a number of other snore guards, night guards and mouth guards.
  • Sterilization Infection control is a vitally important part of your care, and it goes beyond masks and gloves at Brad Dixon, DMD. We clean instruments ultrasonically and rinse and sterilize them with steam before restoring them in sterile cassettes sealed in protective bags. Even our work surfaces are covered with a sanitary wrap to keep you safe and healthy.

    I have been seeing Dr. Dixon and his team for 17 years. I had a phobia of (Dentistry) prior to going to Smiles by Dixon. Dr. Dixon makes sure that I'm not in any pain and that I am relaxed and comfortable with the procedure i'm having done. I have completely gained my trust in dentistry because of Dr. Dixon and his wife Sherry. I'm confident when I smile now thanks to Dr. Dixon!

    The first thing I noticed upon entering was how spotless everything was and how neat. The staff was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Dr. Dixon did something which most doctors don't do anymore. He sat down with me in his office and took the time to get to know me. The examination was very thorough and he explained his findings. You couldn't ask for a more professional down-to earth doctor. I thoroughly enjoyed his knowledge, passion for what he does and sense of humor. I know this may sound strange, however I look forward to my next visit.

    I have been tired for 25 years. I have checked the box indicating "fatigue" on every health questionnaire I have ever completed. I have visited numerous doctors and dentists and not a single one has suggested that I might have sleep issues. At my first visit to Dr. Dixon's office I completed a health questionnaire and checked the box for fatigue. Dr. Dixon took the time to go over my health history and performed a thorough exam, including taking photos of my airway. He suggested that I might have sleep apnea and referred me to a sleep clinic. I was in fact diagnosed with sleep apnea. In addition to great dental work, my overall health stands to improve in countless ways because of that referral and I have Dr. Dixon to thank for that!

    Today was my first visit. I was made to feel comfortable and I believe I'm being well taken care of. I left feeling like I'm on a path to get some good answers about my health and good future care of my teeth and jaw.

    Dr Dixon is very rude towards his employees, he has a very short temper and he does not know how to communicate with his employees, he is also very disrespectful with his wife, he'll talk to her like if she's just his maid when in reality she's his partner so he should have more respect towards her, on the other hand Mrs Sherri is very sweet and kind and knows how to communicate with people. He is also very touchy on my shoulders when he talked to me and I very much hated that as a female I very much hated that.

    I have a big time fear of dental visits, but Dr Dixon, Sherry, and now Christine make my visits a fantastic experience. Dr Dixon and his staff really care about their patients. They go beyond to make them feel safe and comfortable. I HIGHLY recommend anyone who is looking for a dentist to schedule an appointment with Dr Dixon.

    From the moment I arrived, I was at ease with the warm and friendly atmosphere. My questions and concerns were addressed so that I left with confidence about how to care for my teeth and gums. This appointment was so informative and pleasant. I look forward to getting back to the regular cleanings I have missed for about five years.
