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.

Brushing your teeth is important… but it’s only part of the story 🦷

In this video, Richard explains why cleaning between your teeth matters too - and the different ways you can do it, including:
✔ Floss
✔ TePe brushes
✔ Water flossers

Your toothbrush can’t always reach the tight spaces between your teeth, which means plaque and food can build up in these areas over time.

Cleaning between your teeth daily can help reduce:
✨ Gum problems
✨ Bad breath
✨ Tooth decay between teeth

Not sure which option is best for you? There’s no one-size-fits-all approach, and our team can help you find what works best for your smile and lifestyle.

Do you wake up with jaw pain, headaches or tension in your face? You could be clenching or grinding your teeth without even realising it.

In this video, Yasmin discusses how neurotoxin injections may help relieve symptoms associated with TMJ problems and teeth grinding.

For some patients, treatment can help to:
✨ Relax overactive jaw muscles
✨ Reduce clenching and grinding
✨ Ease tension and discomfort
✨ Help with headaches linked to jaw strain

Many people grind their teeth during sleep or clench during stressful periods, often without knowing they’re doing it.

If you’ve been experiencing symptoms such as:
• Jaw ache
• Facial tension
• Headaches
• Worn teeth
• Clicking or tightness in the jaw

…it may be worth exploring your options.

✨ A little update from us at Evolve Dentistry ✨

As many of our patients know, our practice is currently closed this week while essential repair work is being carried out.

While everything is being completed, we’d just like to gently remind everyone not to leave any dental concerns until the last minute where possible. If something doesn’t feel quite right, please get in touch with us sooner rather than later so we can help arrange the most appropriate care for you.

Thank you so much for your patience, kindness and understanding while the work takes place - we’re looking forward to welcoming everyone back very soon. 💙

Did you know? 👀

One of the simplest ways to improve your oral health is cleaning between your teeth every day.

Your toothbrush cleans the front, back and biting surfaces of your teeth - but it can’t always reach the tight spaces in between, where plaque and food can build up.

Using interdental brushes or floss daily can help:
✨ Reduce gum problems
✨ Freshen breath
✨ Lower the risk of decay between teeth

Not sure which products are best for you? Our team would always be happy to help guide you.

Small habits really do make a big difference 💙

✨ “I can’t stop smiling.” ✨

We love hearing how much confidence patients gain from their new smile 🤍

In this video, one of our patients shares her experience after having veneers fitted at Evolve Dentistry and talks about how pleased she is with the results.

Every smile makeover is personal, and our aim is always to create natural, beautiful results that help patients feel more confident every day.

If you’ve been thinking about improving your smile, veneers may be one of the options available to you.
