Dentistry
At Evolve Dentistry in Portishead, Bristol, we understand that anxiety about attending dental appointments is a very real problem for many people. As a practice, we have an ethos of doing all that we can to put you at ease from the moment you start your journey with us. That’s why we always encourage patients to speak to us about their concerns so that we can look for real solutions that are more tailored to your needs.
With that in mind, we’d like to tell you about a drug-free solution for our nervous dental patients, that we find can work very well. Hypnosis, or hypno-relaxation, needs to be understood properly in order to see the merits and the first thing to be aware of is that it’s nothing like the displays you see on the stage or television! Under responsible, professional hypnosis you will not lose control or do anything embarrassing. It is impossible to hypnotise someone against his or her will, so a patient who isn’t fully comfortable with the concept would not be a suitable candidate for this type of treatment.
The first stage of hypnosis in the dental setting is to create a mutual trust between the patient and the dentist, which is aided by a series of initial questions that help to achieve a trance-like state. Patients are often surprised by the length of time they have been hypnotised for because it feels much shorter in comparison to real time. We find that hypno-relaxation is particularly good for those who are concerned about longer treatments, while those with a fear of the dentist can also benefit as it will make healthy mouth reviews seem very quick!
Jonathan Sproson carries out hypnosis at Evolve Dentistry, he has used this technique with many patients and is qualified and experienced in this area. The huge benefit is that it is completely drug free, so it is a much more cost-effective solution to sedation techniques and also means patients can carry on with their normal daily activities much more quickly, and can even drive after their appointment!
If you’d like to discover more about hypno-relaxation and how it could benefit you, get in touch with us on 01275 842550.
✨ “I can’t stop smiling.” ✨
We love hearing how much confidence patients gain from their new smile 🤍
In this video, one of our patients shares her experience after having veneers fitted at Evolve Dentistry and talks about how pleased she is with the results.
Every smile makeover is personal, and our aim is always to create natural, beautiful results that help patients feel more confident every day.
If you’ve been thinking about improving your smile, veneers may be one of the options available to you.

✨ What is composite bonding… and is it right for you? ✨
Composite bonding is one of the most popular cosmetic dental treatments we offer at Evolve Dentistry - but many people still aren’t completely sure what it actually involves.

This morning, our Clinical Director, Carol Somerville Roberts, was featured on BBC Radio Bristol discussing something we are incredibly passionate about – the connection between oral health and your overall wellbeing. 🦷✨
Many people don’t realise that your oral health can have an impact on the rest of your body, with links between gum health and conditions such as heart disease, diabetes and dementia.
During the interview, Carol shared practical advice on maintaining good oral hygiene and why looking after your mouth is about so much more than just your smile.
We’re so proud to see Carol helping to raise awareness of the importance of preventive dental care across our local community. 💙

It’s officially Smile Month! 🎉
This year is extra special, as Smile Month celebrates its 50th anniversary - five decades of encouraging healthy smiles and better oral health across the UK.
Over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing simple tips, advice and reminders to help you care for your smile at home and understand how small habits can make a big difference.
This year’s message is simple:

Just with a little extra recognition behind it.
A big moment for Carol - and a proud one for all of us at Evolve.
