Face
Dentistry
At Evolve Dentistry in Portishead, Bristol, we speak to many patients who are experiencing symptoms such as unexplained facial or neck pain, clicking or locking jaws, regular headaches, or ringing in the ears.
Often, these patients have seen countless healthcare professionals to try to get to the bottom of the problem, seeking a solution or a way to ease the pain. Having to make appointments with countless therapists and never finding a solution can feel soul destroying and, in some cases, begin a spiral into depression and a feeling of helplessness.
In cases like these we often find that the problem is due to an unbalanced jaw or bite, something we callTMJ or occlusion issues, which means that the teeth don’t fit together in the way that they should do. This can lead to bruxism, which is the medical term for grinding the teeth (usually at night) and stress can make the problem worse and is often the trigger or underlying cause in the first instance. Added to that, tooth grinding can actually wear down or break the teeth over time, leading to problems like sensitivity or an unappealing smile due to shortened or broken teeth.
Jonathan Sproson has completed hundreds of hours of training on this subject and is a member of the British Society of Occlusal Studies. This is great news for patients because Jonathan’s vast experience in this area means that he understands what you’re going through and can offer tried and tested solutions that could help you in the same way as many of our existing patients. Not only that, he can also offer practical advice on how you can also ease the symptoms through reducing stress factors.
Don’t suffer in silence, if any of these or similar symptoms are affecting your daily life don’t hesitate to get in touch on 01275 842550 for an appointment with one of our friendly dentists who will only be too pleased to help.
One of the biggest reasons adults choose clear aligners? ✨
They fit seamlessly into everyday life.
Many people worry that teeth straightening will be obvious, but modern aligners are designed to be as discreet as possible. Made from clear plastic and custom-fitted to your teeth, they’re often barely noticeable when you’re talking, smiling or going about your day.
In fact, many of our patients tell us that friends, family and colleagues don’t realise they’re wearing aligners until they mention it!
If you’ve been putting off straightening your teeth because you’re concerned about how braces might look, clear aligners could be the solution you’ve been looking for.

🦷 Dental myth or dental fact? 🤔
One of the most common myths we hear is that teeth whitening is bad for your teeth.
In this video, Maggie explains why professionally prescribed teeth whitening is a safe and effective way to brighten your smile when carried out under the guidance of a dental professional.
Unfortunately, misinformation can stop people from exploring treatments that could help them feel more confident about their smile. That’s why we’re passionate about sharing trusted advice and helping patients make informed decisions about their oral health.

At Evolve, we’re incredibly proud of our team - not just for the care they provide to our patients, but for the difference they make beyond the practice too. 💜
On 30 July, our wonderful dental nurse, Kayse, and her brother will be taking on an incredible challenge by completing a charity skydive in support of Alzheimer’s Research UK.
They’re stepping well outside their comfort zones to raise money for a cause that means so much. Alzheimer’s and dementia affect millions of families, taking away precious memories and changing lives forever. By supporting Alzheimer’s Research UK, they’re helping to fund vital research into better treatments and, one day, a cure.
Their fundraising target is £650, and every donation, no matter how big or small, will make a real difference.
If you’d like to support Kayse and her brother, you can donate here:

Good luck with the jump Kayse - we know you’ll be amazing! ✈️💜

“How long will it take?” 🤔
It’s one of the first questions we hear from patients considering teeth straightening - and the honest answer is that every smile is different.
Some patients achieve their desired results in as little as six months, while more complex cases may take longer. The good news is that modern orthodontic treatment is carefully planned from the start, so you’ll have a clear idea of what to expect before treatment begins.
At Evolve Dentistry, we’ll assess your smile, discuss your goals and create a personalised treatment plan tailored to you.
Whether you’re looking to correct crowding, close gaps or improve the overall appearance of your smile, the journey may be shorter than you think.
