Dentistry
I’d always been self-conscious of my teeth, so as it got closer to the deadline to submit my entry, I thought why not enter. What did I have to loose?
I was so excited to win! I met with Dr Jonathan Sproson and Julie, the Treatment Co-ordinator, who explained all of my options and the benefits of each one. For me, the best option was to have braces.
Before treatment, most people would have said my smile was ok. I am fortunate to have fairly white Natural teeth. But in my mind I hated my teeth. I was very aware of them as I spoke to people. I felt that people were staring at my ugly teeth as I was talking to them. I am generally a smiley person but I would try to smile with my mouth closed. I was reluctant to have photos taken whilst I was smiling and always checked the photos afterwards to see if my teeth looked horrible. I was very very self-conscious of them in general.
I was apprehensive about the treatment as I’ve never been a fan of going to the dentist. My teeth are sensitive, so I thought the treatment would be very uncomfortable. But I was wrong. Yes the initial fitting of the brace meant I was unable to eat probably for the first few days. And my teeth felt tender but having the fitting was no problem at all. Jonathan talked me through exactly what he was doing. Explaining what every step was going to do for my new smile.
Wearing the braces overall wasn’t that much of a nuisance, as I kept thinking about the end result. The longer I had the braces on the more they became part of me. I quickly got used to the routine of cleaning and caring for them. They were hardly noticeable and if I pointed them out to people they were surprised I had them on. They didn’t give me a funny lisp as I thought they would. And they weren’t particularly tender when I had the wires changed, another thing that I was pleasantly surprised about. My only grumble was not being able to eat spicy food as the spices can turn the bands bright yellow. But that was very small inconvenience!
When I first had the braces on, most people said that they thought I didn’t need braces. I assume they were just being polite, as you would never tell people they needed them. These are the same people that tell me now how amazing my teeth look. So they can see the big difference it’s made to my smile.
I think having the braces has given some of my friends and work colleagues the confidence to get themselves braces as well, as they’ve gone through to the whole brace journey with me and realise they aren’t as inconvenient as you think and the results are truly amazing.
You think you can judge how your teeth will look when you have the braces on but boy, the day you have them off really reveals your brand new smile. I was flabbergasted with the results. My teeth are AMAZING. I was constantly looking at them at every opportunity at first and I’m not a naturally vain person that always looks in a mirror!
I just feel so much prettier with my new smile. I love smiling and showing them off, I feel much happier when I meet new people and don’t have to feel self conscious.
Overall I am very grateful to Evolve for giving me the opportunity to have a perfect smile. I would say to anyone that is thinking about it but maybe cost is putting them off. It is worth every penny, a new smile is priceless!!

How Sedation Dentistry Can Help You Feel Relaxed
If dental appointments make you feel anxious or overwhelmed, you’re not alone. At Evolve Dentistry, we believe everyone deserves access to comfortable, stress-free dental care. That’s why we offer sedation dentistry in Portishead.
Sedation dentistry involves using medication to help you feel deeply relaxed during your treatment. While you’re still awake and able to respond, you’ll feel calm and often have little to no memory of the procedure afterwards.
Sedation can be an excellent option if:
- You experience severe dental anxiety
- You have a strong gag reflex
- You need a complex or lengthy treatment
- You’ve avoided the dentist for years due to fear
At Evolve Dentistry, our experienced team will carefully assess your needs and discuss the sedation options available to you. Your safety and comfort are always our top priorities, and we take the time to explain each step so you know exactly what to expect.
By choosing sedation dentistry in Portishead, you can finally receive the dental care you need without the fear or worry. Many of our patients tell us that after trying sedation, they no longer put off their appointments and feel much more confident about their oral health.
If you’ve been avoiding the dentist because of anxiety, we invite you to discover how gentle, compassionate care and sedation options can transform your experience. #sedation #sedationdentist #awardwinning #beyourbestself #Northsomerset #freeconsultation #multiawardwinning #patientsatisfaction #compositebonding #patientsfirst #newpatients #healthysmiles #naturalteeth #acceptingnewpatients #nailsea #portishead #clevedon #portisheadmarina #dentist #dentures

✨ Wondering when it’s the “right time” to start facial aesthetic treatments? You’re not alone!
At Evolve Dentistry, we believe confidence isn’t about chasing trends — it’s about feeling good in your own skin, at any age.
Here’s what you should know:
🔞 Under 18? It’s illegal in the UK to receive injectable treatments like fillers or wrinkle reduction — and for good reason.
⏳ Most people start in their late 20s+, when early signs of ageing (like fine lines or volume loss) begin to appear.
🧠 It’s not just about age — maturity, motivation, and understanding the process are key.
🧑⚕️ We focus on natural, subtle enhancements — no overdone results here.
💬 A thorough consultation is essential — we only recommend treatments that are right for you.
We’re here to support you with honest advice, professional care, and results that reflect you at your best — not a filter.
