What is meant by cosmetic dentistry?
The term ‘cosmetic dentistry’ is a generic term that refers to a wide range of treatment that focuses on improving the appearance of your smile. This includes treatments such as tooth whitening, dental bonding, veneers and braces. We offer all of these at our Portishead Dentist practice.
How much does it cost to have a dental makeover?
It’s not possible to give a cost for a dental makeover as there are so many variables. Here at Evolve in Portishead, tooth whitening costs just £360.
What is the best cosmetic treatment for teeth?
At Evolve, we believe that the best treatment is the most minimally invasive treatment that is right for you. This is something that will depend on your current oral health and also what you are trying to change about your smile. However, the following are common treatments that we offer here in our Portishead dental practice:
Why do people get cosmetic dentistry?
We speak to a lot of people who have low confidence due to their smile. Having stained, chipped, wonky or gappy teeth can have a big impact on how often people smile. Take a look at photographs of yourself, are you showing your teeth and smiling in them? If not, then you may benefit from some cosmetic dental treatment to give you the confidence to smile.
When should you consider cosmetic dentistry?
Cosmetic dental treatments are 100% elective, which means they are not necessary for the overall health of your teeth. This means that it’s completely down to the individual as to when they feel they would like to begin dental treatment to improve their smile. We see a lot of people that are looking to have a smile makeover before their wedding or a big birthday, but we also regularly see people that have decided now is the time to improve their confidence. Having an increase in confidence from a beautiful smile can be life changing.

🦷 Did you know your oral health affects your whole body?
Your mouth doesn’t exist in isolation. Gum health, inflammation and oral hygiene can all play a role in your wider wellbeing – from heart health to confidence and mental wellness.
We’ve just published a new blog exploring the link between oral health and overall wellness, and why looking after your teeth and gums is about much more than your smile.
If you’re interested in oral health and general health Portishead, this is a great read and a helpful reminder of how small daily habits can support long-term health.

When is root canal treatment needed?
It’s a question many patients ask — and in this video, Richard explains it clearly and simply.
Root canal treatment is usually needed when the nerve inside a tooth becomes inflamed or infected. This can happen because of deep decay, a crack in the tooth, repeated dental work, or sometimes after an injury.
You might experience symptoms like persistent toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers, pain when biting, or swelling around the gum. However, sometimes there are very few symptoms at all — which is why regular check-ups at the practice are so important.
The good news is that root canal treatment is designed to relieve pain, not cause it. It removes the infection, saves the natural tooth, and helps you avoid extraction.
Watch Richard’s video to understand the signs to look out for — and if you’re worried about a tooth, get in touch with our reception team for advice.

Love a sweet treat? Jane shares a simple swap that your teeth will thank you for.
Sticky sweets cling to your teeth and sit in the tiny grooves for longer, feeding the bacteria that cause decay. The longer they stick around, the more damage they can do.
Instead, try swapping them for crunchy veg or a handful of nuts. Foods like carrots, cucumber and peppers have a natural crunch that helps stimulate saliva, which protects your teeth. Nuts are also a lower-sugar option and far less likely to cling to enamel.
Small changes really do make a big difference over time.
