Your Smile Makeover: Smile More and Change Your Life!
Like most people around the world, you understand the powerful impact that a smile can have on someone’s life. When you’re feeling down or lost and confused, a smile from a loved one – or even a stranger – can sometimes be just what the doctor ordered to lift your spirits. But did you know that your own smile can have a big impact on you as well? That’s why it’s so important to enjoy full confidence in your smile, so that you’re not hesitant about showing it off to the world. A smile makeover can be just the thing you need to smile more and change your life!
What is A Smile Makeover?
A smile makeover involves a combination of dental procedures designed to correct minor imperfections, address aesthetic issues, and leave you with the straight, white teeth you deserve. Your dentist will whiten your teeth where necessary and can use several different techniques to cover up or repair minor chips, scratches, or other dental problems. The makeover can sometimes be done in a single session, but also may require several trips to the dentist. For the patients who choose this option, however, the result can be dramatic: cleaner, brighter, perfectly-aligned teeth that provide you with that perfect smile you’ve always dreamed of enjoying.
What Can Smiling Do for You?
Of course, that leaves us with the obvious question: is smiling really that big a deal? As it turns out, the answer is an unqualified “yes!” You see, we’re all born knowing how to smile – and there’s apparently a good reason for that innate ability. Research has revealed that smiling can have a powerful impact – and not just on your mood, either. Regular smiling promotes better health, greater happiness with life, and enhanced longevity.
You hear that right: learn how to smile regularly, and you may just live longer.
Studies show that people who routinely smile their way through life tend to have better reactions to stress. In tests, respondents who smiled recovered from stress at a much faster rate than those who remained stony-faced. That means less strain on the heart and could result in lower blood pressure and other effects that can leave you with a healthier heart and reduced risk for many stress-related diseases.
In addition, smiling can help you manage pain, will enhance your endurance, and makes you appear even younger than you already are. And did we mention your immune system? We should, since research suggests that smiling can help to improve your own body’s ability to recover from illness and disease. Laughter – and smiling – really are the best medicine.
Sadly, none of these benefits are likely to be experienced by those who are self-conscious about their smile. If that describes you, then it’s time to do something about your teeth and gums so that you can finally enjoy smiling’s many benefits. Call your dentist today to learn more about your smile makeover options, and how your smile can positively change your life.
