Healthy smile tips…

At Evolve, we help our patients to understand how they can maintain a healthy smile at home. We want to ensure that all of our patients have a healthy smile so our hygienists spend time with patients discussing oral health care tips to help patients look after their teeth and gums at home.

  1. Brush teeth twice a day with an adult toothpaste for 2 minutes. Only use a very small amount
    of toothpaste for young children.
  2. Toothbrushing should occur before breakfast and last thing at night.
  3. Children under the age of 8 should have an adult brush their teeth for them and under the age of 10 should have close adult supervision.
  4. Never leave anything other than water for a child to drink during the night.
  5. Continual sipping from a beaker or bottle should be avoided unless it is water.
  6. Fizzy drinks and lollipops should be avoided.
  7. If a child has sweets, have them after meals and eat them in one go. It is the frequency of sugar in the diet rather than the amount of sugar.
  8. Encourage your child to choose tooth friendly snacks such as crisps, cheese or nuts.
  9. Encourage your child to drink from a cup as soon as possible and if anything other than water is drunk, ensure it is diluted even fruit juice.
  10. Attend appointments with your dentist twice a year.

Maintaining a healthy mouth can impact your overall health, so we want to ensure that children from a young age develop the right habits to help them throughout their life. If you have any concerns regarding yours or your child’s teeth, please contact the practice to book an appointment.

⏰ Smile hack: When you brush matters

Did you know it’s not just how long you brush — but when you brush — that makes a difference? Maggie shares an important smile hack about timing your toothbrushing properly.

Brushing straight after eating — especially after acidic foods or drinks like fruit, juice or coffee — can actually do more harm than good. Your enamel is slightly softened, and brushing immediately can cause wear.

Maggie explains the best time to brush and why waiting can help protect your teeth long term.

It’s a small change that can make a big difference to your oral health.
How do braces actually work? 🤔

In the latest video from our Two Thirty series, Lisa explains exactly how braces move teeth — and why treatment takes time.

If you’ve ever wondered how gentle pressure can gradually straighten your smile, or what’s happening behind the scenes during orthodontic treatment, this short video breaks it down in a clear and easy-to-understand way.

Whether you’re considering braces for yourself or your child, understanding the process can make the journey feel much more reassuring.

Have you got an old filling on a front tooth that’s starting to discolour?

Sometimes it’s the small changes that make the biggest difference to your confidence.

If you’re unhappy with an old filling, contact our reception team to book a consultation and explore your options.
