Does a space have dimension at most 1 if it contains no plane?

Let $X$ be a separable metric space. Suppose that $X$ contains no subspace homeomorphic to the plane. Is it necessarily true that the dimension of $X$ is $\leq 1$?

No, there are totally disconnected separable metric spaces of any dimension $n$ (even $\infty$). And totally disconnected spaces do not contain any connected subspace except singletons...
