The value of a beautiful smile from your dentist in Arden, NC

An attractive smile is frequently referred to as a winning smile, for some very good reasons. It is common knowledge that the “beautiful people” are afforded a number of advantages in today’s society. Numerous studies have demonstrated that people’s appearance influences how others perceive and treat them. Social psychologists have found that most people have formed an initial impression of you within 30 seconds of the first meeting. Perceptions of your education, career, success, sophistication, social standing, trustworthiness, and personality are formed, based on your appearance, on your appearance before you have spoken a word!

A study conducted by Beall Research of Chicago found that people with great smiles were perceived to be more intelligent, successful, attractive, popular, successful, friendly, and interesting. A scientific poll conducted by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry found that the things people noticed first about someone’s smile were the straightness, whiteness, and cleanliness of the teeth, as well as whether any teeth were missing. When the same respondents were asked what makes a smile unattractive the most common responses were teeth that were discolored, missing, crooked, decaying, or gapped.
