Carol is very experienced in amalgam removal and follows strict clinical protocols to ensure the treatment is carried out safely and effectively.

After amalgam removal, we place a white filling, porcelain inlay or crown. This will be discussed with you during the initial consultation.

Activated charcoal is a powder that is mixed with water and you just drink it like any other drink.

Ever wondered what it’s really like to walk through the doors at Evolve Dentistry? 💚
We know that for many people, the unknown can be the most nerve-wracking part of visiting the dentist. That’s why we wanted to show you around.
From the moment you arrive and step into our Patient Lounge, everything is designed to help you feel calm, welcomed, and comfortable. No clinical feel. No rushing. Just a relaxed space where you’re treated as a person, not an appointment.
This walkthrough gives you a glimpse of what to expect — so when you do visit, it already feels familiar.
Because feeling comfortable matters just as much as the care itself. 🤍

Feeling nervous about visiting the dentist? You’re not alone 💚
For many people, dental visits come with worry, past experiences, or simply the fear of the unknown — and that’s something we truly understand.
In this video, Rachael talks honestly about what it’s like if you feel nervous about coming to the dentist, and how we support patients every step of the way. From taking things at your pace, to listening without judgement, and making sure you always feel comfortable and informed.
At Evolve Dentistry, there’s no pressure and no rushing — just a calm, supportive environment where you’re in control from the moment you arrive in our Patient Lounge.
If you’ve been putting off an appointment because of nerves, this one’s for you. 🤍
