Corporate dental insurers Unum Dental carried out some research last year that revealed some interesting facts. According to a survey of more than 2,000 private sector employees, more than a fifth (24%) of British workers say that a fear of feeling pain or discomfort is the reason they avoid the dentist.
Women were found to be more afraid, with over a quarter (27%) declaring that they put off the recommended two dental health examinations a year out of fear of pain, compared to 22% of men.
Poor dental health risks
Poor dental health is linked to heart disease, bacterial lung infections, premature births, diabetes and strokes, meaning regular visits for dental health reviews are vital to maintaining good general health and dental wellbeing.
We know that it has been difficult to keep on top of regular dental visits over the past few months due to the government’s decision to close dental practices. Evolve Dentistry is delighted to have reopened and we have heavily invested in anti-virus protection, on top of our usual strict decontamination measures to help put your mind at rest.
Looking after anxious patients
Please don’t neglect your dental wellbeing because of dental phobia. At Evolve Dentistry we find that even with the most nervous of patients, all they need is time and kindness. Therefore, our principal dentist Dr Carol Somerville Roberts, ensures our appointments are calm, unhurried and welcoming.
If you are anxious about your dental or hygiene appointments, try contacting us first for a chat.
We encourage dentally phobic patients to pop in, meet our team and have a look around our Portishead dental practice before going anywhere near a dental chair.
The door to our Harbour Road dental practice is always open to new patients, so please feel free to contact us now for more information. We look forward to meeting you soon.

Can chipped teeth be fixed without braces? In this latest Two Thirty episode, Carol explains that the answer depends on why the tooth chipped in the first place.
Sometimes teeth chip because of the way they meet or their position. In these cases, orthodontic treatment may be recommended to move the teeth into a healthier position and help prevent further damage.
For many chips, a simple and effective option is composite bonding - carefully adding tooth-coloured material to rebuild the shape and restore your smile.

Your future smile could start this month.
Our clear aligner teeth straightening promotion includes free consultation appointments over the next four weeks, rather than just one day - making it easier to find a time that suits you.
Only 6 appointments available.


Bleeding gums are never something to ignore. In this latest Two Thirty episode, Richard explains how gum disease often starts as gingivitis - where the gums become swollen and may bleed - but with the right care, this early stage can often be reversed.
If left untreated, gum disease can progress and may lead to bone loss around the teeth. The good news is that regular hygiene visits and good home care can make a real difference.
Watch the video to learn the signs to look out for and how we can help you maintain a healthy smile.

Lottie told us she never used to show her teeth when she smiled.
After completing her Invisalign treatment with Yasmin, she now loves smiling with confidence and showing her teeth.
We’re so pleased to have been part of her journey - and grateful for her lovely recommendation of Evolve Dentistry.
If you’ve been hiding your smile, we’d love to help. Message us to book a consultation.

A lovely evening spent together outside the practice. Last night the Evolve team enjoyed a delicious meal at Aqua in Portishead - a chance to relax, catch up and celebrate the people who make Evolve such a special place to work and visit.
We’re proud of the warm, caring team culture we’ve built, and evenings like this are a great reminder that behind every appointment is a team who genuinely enjoy working together.
Thank you to Aqua for a wonderful evening and fantastic food.

Can cosmetic dentistry improve your confidence?
In this video, Carol answers a question we hear often - and for many patients, the answer is yes.
Feeling confident in your smile can have a real impact on how you feel day to day. Cosmetic dentistry can help improve concerns such as tooth colour, shape, spacing or worn edges, while keeping results natural and suited to you.
Every smile is different, which is why treatment always starts with understanding your goals and recommending the most appropriate options.
If you’ve been thinking about improving your smile, our team at Evolve would be happy to help.
