Restore Your Smile With a Smile Makeover

When asking patients if they are happy with their smile, nine times out of 10, they indicate that there is something about their smile that they would like changed. The most common things mentioned in our dental office are straighter teeth and a whiter smile.

We all have those things that we are self-conscious about but do you need to live your whole life feeling self-conscious? The short answer is no! If you’re concerned with your smile, many things can be done to help your smile and, in turn, help you reclaim your self-confidence!

Would you say that you are happy and confident with your smile? If not, let us help you!

Benefits Of Smiling

Much research has been done on the benefits of smiling. While smiling can boost your mood and even your confidence, researchers have found that it does much more than that!

1. Smiling can make you look younger. Think of all the things that our society does to look more youthful. Expensive skin products, eating these foods and not those, and drinking our weight in water each day are a few things that claim we will look younger. Your smile is like a mini facelift. A facelift may cost $15,000 or more. Think of how much money you could save just by using your smile!

2. Smiling can make you look thinner. There was actually a study done on this by a student at UMKC. The experiment that was run showed random sad faces on a computer screen. These faces were judged to be heftier than the faces shown. What if you could replace your weight loss products with a smile?

3. Smiling can release cortisol and endorphins. Cortisol and endorphins provide numerous health benefits, including:

• Reduced blood pressure
• A stronger immune system
• Reduced stress
• Reduced pain

4. When you smile, you can improve your positivity. Did you know that your brain can be retrained by doing something repeatedly? So if you smile often, you can make positivity the new standard in your life.

5. Smiling may increase your productivity. Productivity is an essential component of work. If you aren’t feeling very productive, this can cause stress. Stress will probably lead to less productivity. As we have seen above, smiling can release cortisol and endorphins that help to lower stress. Smiling can help you remove any negative emotions that you may be experiencing and keep you moving forward in life.
