After attending my recent update on core subjects for my Continued Professional Development (CPD) last week I wanted to share with Evolve patients what I had learned about oral cancers, I would like to make everyone aware of just how important it is to see your dentist regularly.
After attending my recent update on core subjects for my Continued Professional Development (CPD) last week I wanted to share with Evolve patients what I had learned about oral cancers, I would like to make everyone aware of just how important it is to see your dentist regularly.
Before we talk about facts and figures, I want you all to think about the last time you looked in your mouth to check for any abnormalities? Possibly never, as I don’t myself. The pictures and slides that I was shown of affected areas were in areas of the mouth that you would be hard pushed to see yourself, on the roof of the mouth where the soft palate meets the hard palate, and inside the cheek at the back of your mouth. Obviously the face and lips are places that you can see in the mirror, and would know if a mark or abnormality was to appear.
The hidden areas are the concern, and this is why it is so important to see your dentist regularly, so that these areas are checked for you.
Did you know that there are approximately 75,000 cases of Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) in the UK diagnosed each year, affecting both men and women? BCC is a type of skin cancer, a non-melanoma skin cancer, which is the most common type. While malignant these are unlikely to spread to other parts of the body, but could be disfiguring if not treated early.
Early presentation is associated with improved survival rates. Most oral cancers are Squamous Cell Carcinomas which are not painful, and without examination you are not going to know it is there, a frightening thought.
What should you be looking for:
During your Healthy Mouth Review at Evolve Dentistry, our experienced dentists will check for any of the symptoms above, and note any changes however small in your records. If this needs further attention you will be referred for the appropriate care immediately. If a small change is noted an ulcer or a bitten lip perhaps, this is noted in your records and will be checked six months later at your next appointment, you will also be told to keep and eye on the area and return if it doesn’t heal within 3 weeks.
At your Healthy Mouth Review your teeth are checked as well as your soft tissues including your tongue, cheeks and insides of your lips, these are the areas that you may find difficult to check yourself.What can you do to reduce the risks:
I hope that you found this information helpful, but if you do not remember a fact or figure that is fine, what I would really like you to remember is how important it is to see a dentist regularly.

How Sedation Dentistry Can Help You Feel Relaxed
If dental appointments make you feel anxious or overwhelmed, you’re not alone. At Evolve Dentistry, we believe everyone deserves access to comfortable, stress-free dental care. That’s why we offer sedation dentistry in Portishead.
Sedation dentistry involves using medication to help you feel deeply relaxed during your treatment. While you’re still awake and able to respond, you’ll feel calm and often have little to no memory of the procedure afterwards.
Sedation can be an excellent option if:
- You experience severe dental anxiety
- You have a strong gag reflex
- You need a complex or lengthy treatment
- You’ve avoided the dentist for years due to fear
At Evolve Dentistry, our experienced team will carefully assess your needs and discuss the sedation options available to you. Your safety and comfort are always our top priorities, and we take the time to explain each step so you know exactly what to expect.
By choosing sedation dentistry in Portishead, you can finally receive the dental care you need without the fear or worry. Many of our patients tell us that after trying sedation, they no longer put off their appointments and feel much more confident about their oral health.
If you’ve been avoiding the dentist because of anxiety, we invite you to discover how gentle, compassionate care and sedation options can transform your experience. #sedation #sedationdentist #awardwinning #beyourbestself #Northsomerset #freeconsultation #multiawardwinning #patientsatisfaction #compositebonding #patientsfirst #newpatients #healthysmiles #naturalteeth #acceptingnewpatients #nailsea #portishead #clevedon #portisheadmarina #dentist #dentures

✨ Wondering when it’s the “right time” to start facial aesthetic treatments? You’re not alone!
At Evolve Dentistry, we believe confidence isn’t about chasing trends — it’s about feeling good in your own skin, at any age.
Here’s what you should know:
🔞 Under 18? It’s illegal in the UK to receive injectable treatments like fillers or wrinkle reduction — and for good reason.
⏳ Most people start in their late 20s+, when early signs of ageing (like fine lines or volume loss) begin to appear.
🧠 It’s not just about age — maturity, motivation, and understanding the process are key.
🧑⚕️ We focus on natural, subtle enhancements — no overdone results here.
💬 A thorough consultation is essential — we only recommend treatments that are right for you.
We’re here to support you with honest advice, professional care, and results that reflect you at your best — not a filter.
