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.

✨ “I can’t stop smiling.” ✨
We love hearing how much confidence patients gain from their new smile 🤍

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.

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. 💙

Still feeling incredibly proud
A few months on, and we’re still celebrating Carol Somerville Roberts in her role as President of the British Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry.
It’s something we don’t take lightly - representing the profession at this level, while continuing to care for patients here at the practice, is no small thing.
What makes us most proud is that nothing changes for our patients. The same calm approach. The same honest advice. The same focus on doing what’s right for you.
Just with a little extra recognition behind it.
A big moment for Carol - and a proud one for all of us at Evolve.
