Here at Evolve Dentistry we have a specialist orthodontist, Lisa Hichens, who has undertaken specialist training and has gained years of experience in treating our orthodontic patients. Carol Somerville Roberts, our clinical director, is also experienced in braces. We are often asked “ How quickly will my teeth move?”
People are often surprised to hear that adult teeth move as quickly as children’s teeth, and that there is no upper age limit on orthodontic treatment. In fact, a lot of our patients are adults who have children of their own.
There are a huge range of braces available, each with different benefits. At Evolve, we can help you choose the most appropriate option for you, depending on how much you want your teeth to move, how quickly, your budget and also your teeth. We have a Treatment Co-ordinator, Julie, who meets with all new patients to discuss all of the options to ensure that they have all the information they need to help them decide on the best possible option for them.
With some of our options, results can start to be seen within as little as 4 weeks. If you don’t need to have any teeth removed or large gaps closed, treatment can be finished in as little as 10-12 weeks. However, average treatment time is 9-12 months, metal braces can achieve results quicker than ceramic braces. It’s always worth remembering, if teeth can straighten quickly, they can also move back quickly, so retainers are an absolute necessity after all orthodontic treatment.
If your teeth ache whilst you are wearing your brace, it means that they are moving, so see it as a good sign. If you do need to take a painkiller, paracetamol is a better to take than ibuprofen, as ibuprofen can affect speed of the movement of teeth.

Healthy smiles aren’t just about teeth - your lips matter too.
In this quick smile hack, Kate shares why keeping your lips well hydrated can make a real difference. Dry, cracked lips can be uncomfortable and can make your smile feel less confident, especially in colder weather.
Using a good lip balm and keeping your lips moisturised helps them stay soft, comfortable and healthy.

Thinking about facial aesthetics but not sure if it’s right for you?
At Evolve, everything starts with a conversation.
During your consultation, Yasmin will take the time to understand:
• what you’d like to improve
• how you want to look and feel
• whether treatment is the right option for you
For some patients, treatment is the right next step.
For others, it might be something for the future - or not needed at all.
Our approach is always honest, supportive and centred around you.
If you’re curious about facial aesthetics, we’re here to help you explore your options with confidence.

What is digital dentistry?
In this video, Richard explains how modern digital technology has changed the way we plan and deliver dental treatment.
Using digital scanners, we can create precise 3D images of your teeth without the need for traditional impressions. This makes the process more comfortable for patients and helps us plan treatment with a high level of accuracy.
It’s just one of the ways we use modern dentistry at Evolve to improve the patient experience.

If you’re thinking about whitening your teeth, professional whitening is designed to be both safe and tailored to your smile.
At Evolve we offer express whitening, which involves an initial appointment for impressions and a gum and teeth check, followed by a hygienist visit where your teeth are cleaned, your trays are fitted and you receive your whitening gel.
If you’re interested in brightening your smile, our team would be happy to talk you through the options.
