Your first visit to Evolve: what to expect

If you’re searching for a new patient dentist in Portishead, welcome — we’re so glad you’ve found us. At Evolve Dentistry, we understand that visiting a new dentist for the first time can feel a little overwhelming. That’s why we’ve designed our new patient journey to be as friendly, informative and stress-free as possible.

Here’s what you can expect on your first visit to Evolve Dentistry.

1. Easy, helpful booking

Your journey starts the moment you get in touch. Whether you call us or book online, our warm and professional reception team will guide you through the booking process and answer any initial questions. We’ll ask a few quick details to help us prepare for your visit and make sure everything runs smoothly.

2. A friendly welcome at reception

When you arrive at our beautiful practice, you’ll be greeted with a smile. Our reception area is modern, calm and comfortable — designed to help you feel relaxed from the moment you walk in. We’re proud to say many of our patients comment on how welcoming our practice feels. So many of our patients love looking at our Gromit collection!

3. Getting to know you

Before your consultation begins, we’ll spend some time talking about your dental history, any current concerns, and your goals for your smile. Whether you’re here for a routine check-up or looking for more complex treatment, we take the time to really understand what matters to you.

4. A comprehensive oral examination

At your new patient assessment at Evolve Dentistry, we believe in doing things properly from the start. Your first appointment includes a full oral examination — checking your teeth, gums, jaw, soft tissues, and bite. We’ll also take any necessary digital X-rays and carry out an oral cancer screening as part of our thorough assessment.

5. Your personalised treatment plan

Once your examination is complete, your dentist will clearly explain their findings and any treatment recommendations. We always use plain English — no confusing jargon — and never pressure you into making decisions. You’ll leave with a clear, personalised treatment plan and a real sense of what’s next. We believe in providing solutions to the problems that we are presented with. 

6. Ongoing support & care

Becoming an Evolve patient means more than just receiving treatment — it means becoming part of a practice that genuinely cares. From routine hygiene visits to advanced cosmetic work, we’ll be with you every step of the way, providing advice, encouragement and outstanding care tailored to your needs.

50km… and counting! 🚲💪

Our Clinical Director, Dr Carol Somerville Roberts, has just completed her longest training ride yet — an incredible 50 kilometres — as she prepares for a life-changing charity cycle from the base of Kilimanjaro to the Ngorongoro Crater in February 2026.

Carol is taking on this huge challenge to raise funds for Bridge2Aid, a charity providing vital emergency dental care and training in Tanzania. The money raised will help run an outreach and training programme where eight Dental Therapists will be trained and around 2,000 people will receive essential dental treatment.

For someone who hasn’t been on a bike in years, months of training in all weathers is no small feat — and we couldn’t be more proud of her determination.

If you’d like to support Carol and help make a genuine difference to communities with little or no access to dental care, you can donate here:

Every donation, big or small, will have an immense impact.
Thank you for cheering her on! 💜
You were expecting a big before-and-after reveal, weren’t you? 😁
Here’s the truth: the best way to save money at the dentist is simple — floss! 🦷
A few seconds a day can help prevent costly treatments later.

Claire used to feel really self-conscious about her stained teeth and often hid her smile. After having veneers at Evolve Dentistry, she now smiles confidently — and can’t stop! 💚

Her story is a wonderful reminder of how transforming your smile can transform how you feel, too.
