Menopause

Menopause and the impact on your oral health

Can your teeth hurt during menopause?

Women may experience unexplained pain in the mouth. Some women experience a burning sensation or pain in their teeth during menopause and even afterwards, with some experiencing changes in their sense of taste.

Do your teeth change during menopause?

As oestrogen levels fall during and after menopause, women are more likely to lose bone density. This can be indicated by receding gums, as this exposes more of your tooth, which makes your tooth more susceptible to decay.

Is a sore tongue a symptom of menopause?

Women experiencing menopause may experience dry mouth symptoms, frequent thirst, and hoarseness. Sometimes, the condition can lead to burning sensations in the mouth and tongue (known as burning mouth syndrome).

How can I protect my teeth as my hormone levels change?

Keeping your gums healthy requires brushing and flossing every day, as well as regular checkups with your dentist and hygienist to ensure any potential problems are identified early.

💋 Smile hack: keep your lips hydrated

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.

Watch Kate’s quick tip for an easy way to look after your smile.

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.
