Do you experience frequent jaw pain, headaches, or discomfort while chewing? These symptoms may be linked to TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders or an overactive masseter muscle. At Evolve Dentistry in Portishead, we offer a treatment approach designed to relieve jaw pain, reduce muscle tension, and improve both comfort and jawline appearance.

Personalised consultation and assessment
The journey begins with a detailed consultation with Dr. Yasmin Zeina to assess your symptoms, discuss any concerns, and identify treatment goals. During this consultation, Dr. Zeina will evaluate your jaw muscles, listen to your concerns, and help create a tailored treatment plan.
Treatment plan and care schedule
To start, most patients receive treatments every 3-4 months during the first year, allowing gradual improvement. Once initial goals are achieved, maintenance treatments are spaced every six months to support continued comfort and function.
Experience relief and improved comfort
Evolve Dentistry in Portishead is dedicated to providing effective, compassionate care for patients with TMJ and jaw muscle issues. Our team is here to help you find relief, enhance your comfort, and improve your quality of life.
