Finding a dentist near you is essential for maintaining good oral health, whether it’s for routine check-ups, urgent dental care, or a specific treatment. At Evolve Dentistry, we understand the need for a reliable and accessible dental practice. Whether you’ve recently moved, or require specific treatment, here are some useful tips to help you find the right dentist in your area.
Use local search engines and directories
The quickest way to find a dentist near you is to use search engines like Google. A simple search for “find a dentist near me” will provide a list of dental practices in your area. Pay close attention to reviews and ratings from other patients, as these can provide valuable insights into the quality of care provided by each practice.
Check for professional accreditations
When choosing a dentist, it’s important to ensure they are registered with the General Dental Council (GDC) https://www.gdc-uk.org. At Evolve Dentistry, we are proud to be accredited by various professional organisations including Save Face, ensuring that you receive the highest standards of dental care in the UK. Our Clinical Director, Dr Carol Somerville Roberts is currently the Vice President of the BACD and will be the President next year.
Visit the Evolve Dentistry website
For those in our local area, Evolve Dentistry offers a wide range of dental services, from routine check-ups and hygiene appointments to advanced cosmetic treatments. We are committed to providing personalised care to each patient, ensuring a comfortable and positive experience every time you visit.
Ask for recommendations
Personal recommendations are often the best way to find a trusted dentist. Ask friends, family, or colleagues for suggestions, or check out the patient testimonials on our website or social media channels to see what others say about their experience with Evolve Dentistry. Positive feedback and word of mouth can be very reassuring when selecting a new dental practice.

Location and accessibility are key when choosing a dentist. Evolve Dentistry is conveniently located in the heart of our community, with easy access by car or public transport.

🦷 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.


Smile Hack 🍎🥕
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.


Are electric toothbrushes better than manual?
It’s a question we’re asked a lot at the practice – and in this video, Carol gives a clear, honest answer.
Electric toothbrushes can make it easier to clean effectively, especially if you struggle with technique, brushing for long enough, or reaching certain areas. Many people find they remove plaque more consistently, simply because they do most of the work for you.
That said, a manual toothbrush can still do a great job when used properly. It’s less about the brush itself and more about how you use it.
Watch Carol’s quick explanation to find out what we usually recommend – and how to make sure you’re getting the most from your brushing routine.
If you’re unsure whether your brushing technique is working for you, mention it at your next appointment and we’ll be happy to guide you. 🪥


Our Gromits have become quite the local celebrities here at Evolve 🐾💛
So many of you pop into our patient lounge just to see the collection, and we love how much joy they bring to patients of all ages.
At the moment, two of our Gromits seem to have wandered off on an adventure! We’re hoping they simply need a little help finding their way home.
If you happen to spot them locally or see anything that looks like part of our collection being sold, we’d really appreciate you letting us know. You can message us privately or call the practice.
They’re part of what makes Evolve feel like Evolve — and we’d love to have the whole family back together again.
Thank you for always looking out for us 💛
