Confident Smile

A sharp suit or fitted dress, new shoes, a haircut, meeting your personal or business goal, or a pat on the back. These are some of the things that give you confidence.

Your smile can be a confidence booster and also show your confidence. You can be wearing ripped jeans, an old T-shirt and have ‘bed-head’ and still have confidence when you have that smile.

When you learn to use the confident smile, it can go a long way for you. Get the date, job, raise, or simply feel good about yourself. The power of the confident smile can be a game changer. If you learn to harness the energy that goes with that smile, the world can be yours for the taking.

“A smile conveys confidence and professionalism,” says Lily T. Garcia, DDS, a past president of the American College of Prosthodontists. People who project a positive outlook are generally more open and flexible. They tend to cope better with challenges than people who are withdrawn and unsmiling.

Attaining a confident smile comes from within, however, being embarrassed about stained or crooked teeth can hinder that smile. There are teeth straightening and color correction practices such as an apparatus worn while you sleep to align your teeth, and then whitening or veneers to help with the color. Talk to your dentist about your options to get your smile-working for you.
