According to a recent study done by The
American Dental Association, the feature that others find most attractive is
not our hair, eyes, or body – it’s our smile!!
So don’t worry about trying to compete
with the latest supermodel or those impossible-to-beat images we see on every
billboard and magazine ad. Just flash
your pearly whites & smile!
But there’s more to it than that. Anti-aging expert, Dr. Mark Stibich, has come
up with some fantastic reasons to smile.
Here are just a few of them.
Smiling Changes Our Mood
Next time you are feeling down, try
putting on a smile. Smiling can trick
the body into helping you change your mood for the better.
Smiling Is Contagious
When someone is smiling they lighten up
the room & make things happier.
Smile lots & you will draw people to you.
Smiling Relieves Stress
Stress can really show up in our
faces. Smiling helps to prevent us from
looking tired, worn down, and overwhelmed.
When you are stressed, take time to put on a smile. The stress should be reduced & you’ll be
better able to take action.
Smiling Boosts Your Immune System
Smiling helps the immune system to work
better. When you smile, immune function
improves, possibly because you are more relaxed. Prevent the flu and colds by smiling.
Smiling Releases Endorphins, Natural
Pain Killers & Serotonin
Studies have shown that smiling releases
endorphins, natural pain killers, and serotonin, making us feel great. Smiling is a natural drug.
Smiling Lifts the Face & Makes You
Look Younger
The muscles we use to smile lift the
face, making a person appear younger. Don’t
go for a face-lift, just try smiling your way through the day – you’ll look
younger & feel better!
There is no doubt about it – smiling is
something we should be extremely thankful for.
At DeLand Smiles, it is our mission to give our patients something to
smile about!
