Teeth whitening treatments are amongst the most popular cosmetic dental procedures available today all around the world. Having a healthy-looking, bright white smile is near the top of the wish list for many people, and the latest treatments can bring about a remarkable physical transformation – fast and it won’t cost the Earth.
A person’s smile is the first impression they give to people they meet for the first time. Staining or discolouration of the teeth often takes away the intention to smile, or will inhibit the production of a natural broad smile or laugh. People who are conscious of their poor smile will likely hide their mouth behind their hand, supress a smile or turn away.
Having a healthy, white smile can provide a great boost to your confidence, and can make an impression on those around you.
What causes discoloured teeth?
Even if you adopt a regular dental care routine, there are still many factors that can lead to discolouration or staining of the teeth, most commonly:
- Drinking red wine
- Drinking tea and coffee
- Foods with excess artificial colouring
- Smoking
- Illness
- Medication
Boosting confidence and more with a whiter smile
Just knowing that your teeth look healthy, without stains or yellowing, can make a difference to your confidence immediately.
A recent study was conducted by Oral-B with 2,000 people participating. Amongst the most interesting responses were:
- Whiter teeth can reduce your age appearance by up to five years
- A whiter smile can make you 20% more attractive
- White teeth can increase your chances of success in a job interview
- Whiter smiles in the office can lead to better opportunities and pay
Although having a whiter smile won’t guarantee that you will get that job that you went for, find the partner or get you a pay rise, the increased confidence you feel after teeth whitening treatments always projects to those around you.
