The Smile: Number One Most Important Physical Trait

A national survey from the ADA, Crest, and Oral B discovered that the smile is what most folks find most engaging in others. The smile outranked eyes, hair, and the body as the most fascinating physical feature in others. Though males and females both ranked the smile as the most appealing feature in others, the genders differed when it came to looking after their teeth and gums. Of the representative sample surveyed, 86% of women vs. only 66% men said that they brush their teeth twice or more daily while only 49% of those surveyed declared they floss their teeth once every day or more. "We need to constantly get the word out how crucial it is to keep on top of your oral health," announces Ada Cooper, DDS, an ADA consumer advocate and practicing dentist.

Its really interesting reading your blog. Exactly i agree! Maintaining a beautiful and healthy smile often requires a lot of work, a person needs to maintain good health habits. A whiter, brighter smile is one of the first things that people notice about your appearance. It’s no mystery that whiter teeth make us look better: younger, more attractive, more confident. This is why men and women of all ages are now opting for teeth whitening systems to improve their smile.

I am a dentist in renton and totally agree with you. This is one hundred times true. A smile can also reveal one's health habits. So keeping a healthy set of teeth is of utmost importance. Love your blog!

A great smile is not only a physical characteristic but a form of communication. I totally agree with this post and appreciate the info!

A smile could mean a lot of things (happy smile, thoughtful smile, naughty smile, deceiving smile, confident smile, etc.). Whatever type of smile you'd like to express, you can only express it properly if you have complete pearly white teeth. Thus I agree with you that taking care of ones teeth is important. It only takes a few minutes to brush and floss anyway, right? :-D

Some of our patients still get good results from using interdental brushes (or picks) in lieu of one of the daily flossings recommended by the ADA. I suppose it works because they actually do it – it can be done discretely in situations (like driving to or from work) whereas flossing would be too difficult (or even dangerous).

I definitely agree. A smile can make a difference. That's why it's important to take care of your teeth. This makes a great impression. It speaks a lot. Great smile and great teeth can mean a lot of things, cleanliness, discipline and sincerity among others. Love your articles. Keep it up.
