Dentistry 
I currently have a brace fitted on my upper teeth, I can’t believe how quickly my teeth have straightened already. In order to have my lower teeth straightened, I needed to have a tooth removed. I’m very fortunate to have been treated by Carol before and so I immediately knew I was in safe hands. The appointment was booked and I waited to take the next step towards straighter teeth.
During the appointment, both Carol and Gabi, her nurse, explained exactly what was going to happen. Carol really takes her time when injecting you to ensure that it’s as pain-free as possible so I can genuinely say it didn’t hurt at all. Once I was numb Carol tested to ensure that I didn’t feel anything and then it was time for the tooth to be removed.
I thought that there would be lots of pulling and pressure and that I would really feel it, but I can honestly say I didn’t. My head wasn’t pulled this way and that and I wasn’t held down in the chair to get the tooth out as I’d imagined would happen. Within less than a minute and with no pain at all the tooth was out and I was being given a homeopathic remedy to aid healing. Carol then went through detailed instructions on how to care for my mouth to ensure that everything healed without a problem. I was given a little goody box with all the instructions written down, everything I would need including some painkillers and a little treat for TLC.
Having at tooth extracted at Evolve was a calm and very gentle process. I can’t recommend them highly enough. I can’t wait to get my lower brace fitted now and achieve the smile I have always wanted to have.

Carol is heading to Zambia with SmileStar, a dental charity providing free dental care to communities with limited access to treatment.
In this video, Carol shares a little more about where she’s going, what she’ll be doing while she’s there and why she wanted to be part of the trip.
It’s going to be a very different couple of weeks away from the practice, and we’re incredibly proud to see Carol giving her time and skills to support SmileStar’s work.
We’ll be sharing a little more from her trip when we can, but for now, we’ll let Carol tell you all about it in her own words. 💚
Safe travels, Carol. We can’t wait to hear all about it when you’re home!

Do I have to replace a missing tooth?
If you`ve lost a tooth, do you have to replace it?
Not necessarily.
And that`s an important starting point.
What happens next depends on which tooth is missing, your mouth, how you bite, how you feel about the gap and what`s happening with the teeth around it.
Yasmin explains some of the things we consider when a tooth is missing.
The important thing isn`t assuming you need a particular treatment.
It`s understanding your options - including whether doing nothing could be a reasonable option for you.
Why have my teeth suddenly become sensitive?
That sudden zing when you drink something cold. 🥶
Sound familiar?
Sensitive teeth are common, but there isn`t just one possible cause.
Richard explains some of the reasons teeth can become sensitive and why it`s worth mentioning if you`ve noticed something new.
Sometimes a little sensitivity is exactly that.
But a change that persists is something we`d rather know about than have you quietly avoiding ice cream for the foreseeable future.
Having a tooth removed probably isn`t an appointment anyone particularly looks forward to.
Which is precisely why feedback like this means so much:
“Made getting a tooth extracted incredibly easy and straightforward.”
Good dental care isn`t only about the procedure itself.
It`s about knowing what`s going to happen, being able to ask questions, feeling listened to and being looked after throughout.
Thank you for trusting us with your care - and for taking the time to tell us about your experience.
