Cosmetic dentistry has generally been associated with addressing and correcting the aesthetics of the mouth. Through technological breakthroughs that have emerged over the years, we are able to give patients brighter teeth, whiter and straighter smiles, add symmetry to their appearance, and provide them with a vast range of other oral enhancements.
And while it's true that treatments such as braces, gum and teeth shaping, veneers, whitening, and the myriad other ways that cosmetic dentistry can improve your physiological health, it can also work wonders for your mental health, confidence, and even your social life.
At Bloom Dental of Arlington, we’re dedicated to offering our patients with the peace of mind and assuredness that accompanies an improved smile and better oral health. Our cosmetic dentistry serving Ballston, Arlington, and the surrounding areas can not only help you achieve your desired look, but boost your self-esteem and positivity. Let’s take a look at some of the psychological and social benefits of cosmetic dentistry.
A New You, Outside and Inside
When we correct imperfect or damaged teeth for our patients, we don’t just improve their smile; we help to improve their outlook on life as well. In fact, through modern psychology, we’ve learned that our mental outlook on life is integrated with our physical self. Since our teeth are a part of our body image, then being unsatisfied with your smile can negatively affect your personal life. This can lead to an unwillingness to laugh or want to be photographed, and even shyness or avoidance of conversations with others. Clearly, this can be detrimental to our self-esteem.
With a newly-improved and attractive smile, it can have a significant positive impact on a patient’s life. Not only will they enjoy better overall oral health, but a boost in self-esteem as well. Teeth are an essential component of an individual’s looks and livelihood, and enhancing their smile through cosmetic dentistry gives patients a chance to regain their confidence, be happier with their appearance, and make their lives more enjoyable.
Smile With Confidence
Cosmetic dentistry can even enhance how you perform in social situations. Think about it — when you're confident in your appearance, you positively influence the way people perceive you. With a flawless, white and bright smile, you’ll be more outgoing in social exchanges, job interviews, and all types of other interactions, giving you an edge and allowing you to promote healthy relationships with others.
Cosmetic dentistry won’t just give you the perfect smile you’re dreaming of, but it can even change your life for the better and contribute to health, success, and happiness in your everyday life.
