I’d like to share some valuable information on one of the world’s most ubiquitous signs of happiness, warmth, love, and greetings: A SMILE! If you are meeting someone for the first time, your smile is one of the most important aspects of a first impression. And, showing your teeth when you smile is even more effective at conveying those positive emotions. Did you know that:
- 63% – Percentage of people who say they look best in photos when they are showing their teeth.
- 99.7% – Percentage of adults who say an attractive smile is an important personal asset.
- 74% – Percentage of people who say that an unattractive smile can hurt a person’s chances for business or career success.
- 23% – Percentage of people who say they look the best with their mouth closed.
- Smiles are more attractive than makeup. A research study conducted by Orbit Complete discovered that 69% of people find women more attractive when they smile than when they are wearing makeup.
- If you are a woman, you will look more attractive to men when you are smiling. Studies have shown that men think women who are not wearing make-up but are smiling are more attractive than those with perfect make-up who were stone-faced.
So, show off your “pearly whites”- you will seem and feel happier, you will look more attractive to the opposite sex, and it can bring you more success. If you are uncomfortable, or unhappy with your smile, you know you can always turn to your dental professional, Richards Frankel Dentistry, for improvement in your smile!
Happy smiling, Best, Dr. Frankel
