Would You Like Some Good News?

I am not sure about the rest of you, but I have got to a point where I don’t really want to listen to the news or read the papers as it’s all bad news. If it’s not about the eurozone, it’s about the bad and unseasonable weather, if it’s not about the weather, it’a about some other disaster.

We all need a bit of good news in our lives so here’s a picture that I took recently, guess where the rainbow ends?

The answer isn’t Waitrose, but for those of you not lucky enough to have yet visited Evolve, we are situated just behind Waitrose on this picture, and that’s where the rainbow ends. Why have I posted this picture in relation to good news?

It’s very simple really, it you want to have a better life, smile more. Many studies have shown that people who smile are more likely to be trusted, to earn more, to find a life partner and be happy. However, this is easier said than done, in a recent BACD study 32% of respondents said that they didn’t like their smile or hid it in photos, not much smiling going on there.

There are some really simple ways to improve your smile:

  • Brush your teeth twice a day and floss once a day
  • See a dentist and a dental hygienist regularly
  • If you wear lipstick, wear pink rather than red, it makes you teeth appear whiter
  • Have old, discoloured fillings replaced
  • Consider having some minor reshaping done, rounded edges to teeth look younger than sharp corners
  • Have some bonding done to smooth out little chips
  • Talk to your dentist about tooth whitening, either home or in-surgery whitening, just make sure that home trays are included
  • Use one of the many rapid or invisible brace systems to move your teeth into the right position

There are many ways to improve your smile, you just need to talk to your dentist.

Start smiling today and notice the difference.

Our Gromits have become quite the local celebrities here at Evolve 🐾💛

So many of you pop into our patient lounge just to see the collection, and we love how much joy they bring to patients of all ages.

At the moment, two of our Gromits seem to have wandered off on an adventure! We’re hoping they simply need a little help finding their way home.

If you happen to spot them locally or see anything that looks like part of our collection being sold, we’d really appreciate you letting us know. You can message us privately or call the practice.

They’re part of what makes Evolve feel like Evolve — and we’d love to have the whole family back together again.

Thank you for always looking out for us 💛

😴 Can snoring affect your oral health?

In our latest Two Thirty video, Maggie answers a question many people don’t think to ask — can snoring impact your teeth and gums?

The short answer is yes, it can.

Snoring is often linked to breathing through your mouth at night, which can cause a dry mouth. Saliva plays an important role in protecting your teeth, so when your mouth is dry, you may be more prone to tooth decay and bad breath.

If you snore and have noticed dryness, increased decay or concerns about your breath, it’s worth mentioning at your next appointment.

Our reception team at Evolve Dentistry in Portishead will be happy to arrange a consultation if you’d like advice.
⏰ 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.

Watch the full video now and, if you have questions about braces, our reception team will be happy to help you book a consultation at Evolve Dentistry in Portishead.
Have you got an old filling on a front tooth that’s starting to discolour?

Andrea recently visited us to have a stained filling replaced by Richard — and she’s absolutely thrilled with the result.

In her video, she talks about how the old filling had become noticeable over time and how much fresher and more natural her smile looks now.

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.
Thinking about improving your smile but not sure what SmileFast actually involves?

Richard Ford has recorded a short video explaining how the SmileFast process works and the benefits of treatment.

From digital smile design through to the final result, SmileFast offers a minimally invasive way to enhance chipped, worn or uneven teeth — with predictable, natural-looking outcomes.

If you’ve been curious about composite bonding or want to understand your options, this is a great place to start.

Watch the full video on our YouTube channel and contact our reception team if you’d like to book a consultation.
