bad breath

How do I get rid of bad breath?

How do I get rid of bad breath?

There are a number of ways that you can help reduce or prevent bad breath:

  1. Brush your teeth after you eat
  2. Floss or use interdental brushes at least once a day
  3. Ensure you brush your tongue daily
  4. Regularly clean dentures or dental appliances
  5. Drink water throughout the day
  6. Replace your toothbrush every 3 months
  7. Have regular Health Mouth Reviews
  8. Visit your Hygienist regularly

What causes smelly breath even after brushing?

Mouth infections are a common cause for bad breath, however, if your dentist has carried out a full examination and ruled this out, your bad breath could be due to other issues, such as a sinus condition, gastric reflux, diabetes, liver or kidney disease.

Does bad breath go away naturally?

You can usually improve bad breath by improving your dental hygiene routine. By brushing for at least 2 minutes twice a day and flossing / using interdental brushes, your breath should improve. If it doesn’t, then speak to your dentist at your next appointment.

How can I tell if my breath is bad?

If you don’t want to ask a friend or relative about your breath, you could try licking your wrist and then blowing on it. You should then be able to tell what your breath smells like.

How can I have a nice breath?

There are a few simple things you can do to help ensure your breath remains fresh, including:

  • Brush your teeth and gums at least twice a day
  • Gently clean your tongue regularly with a tongue scraper or cleaner
  • Use interdental brushes or floss daily
  • Visit your dentist regularly for a check-up
  • Keep your dentures and dental appliances regularly

We love seeing our team grow ✨

Hannah, our Hygienist, attending an implant training course to expand her skills and knowledge—so our patients benefit from the very latest in dental care.
Behind every great patient experience is a well-trained, passionate team 🦷✨

Yesterday was all about learning, growing and investing in our skills—because our patients deserve the very best.
Dear patients and friends,

Evolve Dentistry will be closed today as our team takes part in a full day of training. 📚

🦷 We believe that continually developing our skills is essential to providing you with the highest level of care and the best possible experience every time you visit.

If you have an emergency please call 01275 842 550.
🦷 Grinding your teeth can take a toll over the years. Jason’s worn and chipped teeth have now been beautifully restored with composite bonding at Evolve Dentistry!

He’s thrilled with the results, we love seeing our patients regain their confidence and smile. 😁

We’re excited to invite you to a special event we’re hosting at Evolve Dentistry on Monday 15th December, and we’d love for you to be part of it.

From 10am to 3pm, we’ll be running a Cyclathon at the practice to help raise funds for Bridge2Aid, a charity providing vital emergency dental care and training in communities that need it most.

This year, our very own Carol Somerville Roberts is taking on the incredible Peaks to Plains Safari Cycle Challenge in Tanzania, and this event is part of her fundraising efforts.

How you can get involved:

🚴‍♂️ Hop on a bike – join us for a few minutes (or more!) and help us cover as many miles as possible.

💙 Come along to cheer us on – your support means so much.

📱 Make a donation on the day – we’ll have SumUp, cash collection, and QR code donation options available.

If the weather is kind, we’ll be cycling outside Evolve; if not, we’ll set up indoors, so the event will go ahead either way.

Whether you’re keen to pedal or just pop by to show your support, we’d absolutely love to see you there. Every mile and every pound makes a real difference to the communities Bridge2Aid supports.

Thank you in advance for your kindness and encouragement — it means the world to us and to Carol.

✨ What is amalgam removal — and when do we use the SMART protocol?

In this video, Carol Somerville Roberts explains what amalgam removal involves and the different options available to patients.

Some patients choose to have their amalgam fillings replaced for cosmetic reasons, while others request that the removal is carried out using the SMART protocol. 

For those who request the SMART protocol, it provides an enhanced approach designed to minimise exposure during the procedure, with additional safety measures for both patients and our team.

If you’re considering having your amalgam fillings replaced — with or without the SMART protocol — our team is here to guide you through your options. 💙
