Thanks to the coronavirus, summer 2020 was rather . . . boring. You worked from home, avoided being close to people in the flesh, and wore a mask everywhere you went. But things are finally, slowly starting to return to normal, just in time for summer. As a result of covering your face for so long, you might not have thought about how your teeth look in quite a while, but now, during the summer, is the perfect time to brighten your smile through teeth whitening. Read on to learn why!
Confidence to Smile
Your smile says a lot about you. It obviously communicates that you’re happy, but it can also impact how others perceive you. Many studies have shown that people who smile often are considered to be more successful, more attractive, more confident, and more trustworthy. These perceptions can help you both in social and professional situations, not just express your joy while you’re on vacation this summer. Having a confident smile can allow you to stop worrying about what you look like and focus more on the fun you’re having!
Tons of Memories, Tons of Photos
Especially to make up for last year’s lackluster summer, you’re likely planning on making tons of fun memories. Whether you’re sightseeing or reuniting with family you haven’t seen in a long time, you’ll want to have photos of your fun experiences to remember later on. Do you want to hide your smile in your photos or be distracted by your yellow teeth when you look at them later? Absolutely not! Your attention should be on enjoying yourself and showing a genuine, wide smile.
Fast In-Office Treatment
Are your summer adventures fast approaching but you have yellow teeth? It doesn’t need to take long to achieve your dream smile. You may not have time for a lengthy treatment process at home, which is why you can take advantage of in-office whitening. In only about an hour, your dentist can take away up to eight shades of discoloration.
Convenient At-Home Treatment
If you would prefer to whiten your teeth from the comfort of your home, you can choose to go with take-home whitening kits from your dentist. Unlike the store-bought brands, the trays are completely customized to fit only your teeth, which ensures that the solution is evenly distributed. After two weeks of treatment, you can get the same results you can get in the dental office—all on your own time and at your convenience!
In the end, you deserve to have a stress-free, fun summer to help make up for lost time. Instead of fretting about your discolored teeth, when you whiten your smile, you can let loose and have a summer worth remembering for years to come!
