4 IDEAL REASONS TO CONSIDER WHITENING YOUR TEETH

We all know the importance of good oral hygiene but did you know that as well as cosmetic, there are also loads of potential psychological and health benefits when it comes to looking after your teeth and having a whiter smile? Having a teeth whitening treatment and going that extra mile to take care of your teeth can potentially make a big impact on your well-being. With this in mind, here are 4 IDEAL reasons to consider a teeth whitening treatment.

A YOUNGER APPEARANCE

It’s a natural part of growing older; as the years pass by, we are exposed to a number of factors that contribute towards the eventual yellowing of the teeth. That coffee you drink every morning, that glass of red wine you have with your Sunday roast are just some of the factors that discolour your enamel, making you look older. Wondering how to reverse those years? Well, having whiter teeth can make you look years younger. Enter teeth whitening procedures.

While regular check-ups with the dentist and hygienist we’ll remove the stubborn deposits brushing alone can’t get rid, whitening procedures can lighten your teeth by multiple shades, taking them back to their natural colour before built up staining occurred. Book an appointment with a dental surgery to see if the experts can perform any procedures that will knock off the years, giving you a younger and healthier appearance.

Of course, dentistry provision via health insurance or the NHS differs hugely from country to country. The cost of dental implants in Melbourne, for instance, will be starkly different to that in Manchester. Do your research thoroughly before deciding when and where to see a dental profesisonal.

BOOST YOUR CONFIDENCE

According to research, the state of our teeth has a huge impact on our confidence. If we’re not happy with the appearance of our teeth, it can have a negative effect on our self assurance. Many of us also worry that the state of our teeth can hurt our chances of finding a new job and a partner. However, people with whiter teeth feel more capable and confident. Enough said.

EXPERIENCE AN ENDORPHIN RUSH

If you’re happy with your teeth, you’re more likely to smile. The act of smiling releases endorphins, so each time you smile you’re ‘throwing a little feel-good party in your brain’.  Moreover, when you flash a dazzling white smile at someone else, their brain is hard-wired to smile back – so you’re giving someone else a shot of feel-good endorphins too.

ONGOING GOOD ORAL HYGIENE

Bad oral hygiene has been linked to heart disease, clogged arteries, stroke and even dementia. Investing time in caring for your teeth (through teeth whitening procedures) can potentially keep the importance of good oral health at the forefront of your mind – hopefully helping to prevent future health problems.
