9 Benefits of Teeth Whitening
Everywhere you look, from your Instagram feed to all the images in magazines to the posters at your local dentist’s office, the importance of having whiter teeth is everywhere around you. Perhaps you’re on the fence about it. You’re wondering what all the hype is about and if it’s the right decision for you. Can it really have a big impact on your life? The truth is, teeth whitening is a completely safe, life-enhancing process that can have positive a effect on both your physical appearance and your psychological health.
1. IT ENHANCES YOUR APPEARANCE
You might have the healthiest teeth and straightest smile but you’re not immune to the damage that everyone faces. Dark liquids like coffees, teas and sodas stain our teeth over time. It’s possible to whiten your teeth in photos with the perfect filter. But why settle for a post-editing effect when you can have the real thing? The first time you see your new ultra-white smile in a photo, you’ll instantly notice the difference. A whiter smile makes your look stronger than it ever was before.2. IT BOOSTS YOUR SELF-CONFIDENCE
You won’t just notice the effect on your photos. Your self-confidence will shoot through the roof. Whether you’re on a date, giving a big presentation at work or just walking down the street, you’ll want to show off your new pearly whites to anyone who’s willing to look.3. IT MINIMIZES THE LOOK OF WRINKLES
A whiter smile shifts the focus on your face. Once your teeth are visible, people will naturally zero in on your smile. This will lessen the appearance of any surrounding wrinkles like frown lines. Even if this concern isn’t top of mind for you, it’s an added bonus.4. IT DOESN’T BREAK THE BANK
Teeth whitening positively alters your appearance but this isn’t like resorting to plastic surgery. You can make a huge update to your look without spending a wad of cash.5. IT MAKES YOU MORE ATTRACTIVE
Whiter teeth make you feel more confident, minimize wrinkles and adjust your look for the better. You won’t be the only one that reaps the benefits of this. You’ll have new potential partners knocking on your door in no time. According to Huffington Post, whiter teeth are an indication that you take care of yourself. Potential love interests will find this attractive.6. IT HELPS YOU LET DOWN YOUR GUARD
Because you’re feeling so confident now, you’ll feel less guarded in social interactions. You’ll have a desire to smile and laugh to really show off your smile. The more you smile, the less self-conscious you become in conversation. It’s no secret that friends and partners are attracted to people who can enjoy themselves. Teeth whitening won’t just make you look better. It will exponentially increase your dating pool.7. IT MAKES YOU SEEM FRIENDLIER
You’re probably thinking, “Duh, of course smiling makes you seem friendlier.” But the impact of smiling is strong, especially when you’re giving presentations or attending important meetings. Smiling and showing off those pearly whites releases endorphins that help ease your nerves. Smiling also makes you seem trustworthy, and other people in the room will catch on. Your whiter teeth enable you to smile more, and in the process, tip the emotional scale in your favor in the workplace.8. YOU CAN THRIVE IN PROFESSIONAL SITUATIONS
If you’ve got a big interview coming up, a whiter smile can work in your favor. People who enter into interviews with whiter smiles like to show them off. This charms the interviewer and creates a warmer atmosphere. Plus, smiling makes you feel more prepared and in turn makes the interviewer believe that you’re more prepared. Aside from nailing big interviews, you can also bring that same energy to everything from salary negotiations to brainstorming sessions.9. IT GIVES YOU A POSITIVE OUTLOOK ON LIFE
In general, teeth whitening gives you more reasons to smile. Even when you aren’t truly happy, smiling tricks your body into believing that you are. It instantly changes your mood. Because you’ll want to show off your whiter teeth all the time, that means you’ll be smiling more. You’ll have a more positive outlook on life because you’ll have a lot more reasons to smile than frown.Call our office at (812) 372–8590 or visit our website at www.pawlusdental.com to find out more about teeth whitening and how to boost to your physical appearance and your psychological well-being.
