We all know that taking care of our oral health is necessary. Who is willing to live with tooth decay, gum problems and, above all, pain and discomfort?
Even so, the well-being of teeth and gums is too precious to only be addressed under these dire situations. In fact, having a functional mouth is only halfway to our well-being. We should still invest in our smile.
Yes, you have read correctly! Smiling with quality and self-assurance is much more than an aesthetic issue. It is a therapeutic attitude, which promotes our health. How so? Easy to explain!
Did you know that when we smile, we choose to be in charge of our mood?
The simple act of making a positive facial expression activates a set of reactions in our brain, which – guess what – will make us feel more satisfied, optimistic and relaxed.
The most interesting part, however, is yet to come: in addition to unleashing such positive energy, smiling lessens our vulnerability to diseases, while reducing symptoms of anxiety.
Investing in our smile is therefore so much more than a trick to create more empathy. It is a true investment in our well-being, personal fulfilment, immune system, and – of course – our happiness.
