At Dentistry on 7th, we love helping our clients improve their smiles for a variety of reasons. Studies suggest that people who smile more appear more attractive, approachable, trustworthy, and confident. Smiling also generates chemicals such as neuropeptides, endorphins, dopamine, and serotonin, which make you happier. It can trick your brain into lifting your mood, lowering your anxiety, and boosting your immune system.
Some studies show that those who smile more often are less likely to develop cardiovascular diseases. They can also have healthier heart rates and a better stress recovery rate. People who smile more may also live longer. The best part is that smiling can be infectious. People are more likely to smile when they see someone else smiling.
Unfortunately, many people hesitate to smile because they lack the confidence to do so. If you’re in Hamilton, cosmetic dentistry services at Dentistry on 7th can help you optimize your smile in a variety of ways. Here are a few reasons why we’re a great option for clients interesting in improving their smile:
#1 Professional Advice
One of the best ways to improve your smile is to take care of your oral hygiene. This means avoiding tobacco, sweets, and sodas. Such items can hurt your oral health in a variety of ways. For example, sugary foods such as candies promote the growth of bacteria in your mouth, which can affect your smile. Likewise, acidic drinks can be bad for your teeth and gums.
Instead of eating unhealthy foods, consume more root vegetables, leafy greens, fruit, cheese, and water to improve your oral hygiene. You should also brush your teeth twice a day, floss regularly, and use mouthwash.
Of course, it’s important to brush your teeth at the correct angle with the right toothbrush for your mouth and use fluoridated toothpaste. When you come for a checkup at Dentistry on 7th, you can ask us more about how to maintain your oral hygiene at home to help improve your smile.
#2 Dental Checkups
There are many good reasons you should visit your dentist at Dentistry on 7th periodically. Not only can we help you keep your oral care on track, but our professional cleaning can improve your smile.
Even if you brush and floss your teeth diligently, some food can be left behind in difficult-to-access areas of your mouth. Eventually, plaque can form in such areas. This is an unsightly yellow film of germs that can ruin any smile.
Left unchecked, plaque can harden into tartar, which can damage your smile by causing gum inflammation, gum recession, tooth decay, and tooth loss. It may even increase the gap between your teeth. Tartar is usually difficult to remove at home and can only be cleaned by a dentist.
#3 Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a fast and effective way to improve your smile. Our team of experienced professionals can help you brighten your teeth and achieve beautiful and natural-looking results
Please always use professional and trusted services if you’re interested in teeth whitening. Many over the counter teeth whitening products can be problematic.
- They may cause more discomfort than necessary. Some people feel extra pain in their gums due to inflammation because of low-cost products.
- The results can be uneven. Some of your teeth may look whiter while others may appear discoloured.
- The results may not be long-lasting. Some over the counter products only offer temporary benefits.
- Low-cost over the counter products may chemicals that damage your tooth enamel.
Likewise, avoid going to a beautician or someone from the classifieds for teeth whitening services. Such practitioners may leave you with oral health issues. Instead, visit a reputable professional dental clinic.
#4 An Artistic Eye

Aside from teeth whitening, there are several other treatment options such as veneers, crowns and bridges. For customers interested in the gold standard for tooth replacement, dental implants are an exceptional option. Not only do they look and feel like natural teeth, but they can last a lifetime with the right care. Like many cosmetic dentistry options, they offer aesthetic and health benefits. Not only do you look great with our dental implants, but you chew and speak more effectively. Dental implants can also alleviate the pain and stress on your joints and facial muscles.
