SATURDAY APPOINTMENTS AVAILABLE
Are you hiding your smile because you’re afraid people will judge your crooked teeth, or is the judgment you fear mostly coming straight from yourself? As it turns out, what happens in our Norman, OK, orthodontic office may have more to do with society’s beauty standards than some orthodontists realize.
Does Society Affect Perception?
When asked, most people can name at least a handful of celebrities who have drastically changed their smiles. For many stars, these changes alter their entire demeanor – they smile bigger, walk taller, and talk with renewed confidence – and fans clamor for similar results. The concern involved with comparing your “before” to Beyonce’s “after” is that you’re comparing your reality to her carefully constructed image. In addition to tons of time spent in their orthodontic office, celebrities like Beyonce also undergo regular teeth whitening sessions, wear makeup designed to set off their pearly whites, and – if all that isn’t enough – have their pictures subjected to the ultimate image-altering effect: airbrushing. Do you still think you’re giving your own real-world smile a fair chance?
Achieving Your Beautiful, Radiant Smile
When you first sit down with your Norman orthodontist, forget who you want to look like and banish the latest model-filled magazine covers from your mind. Instead, imagine the best version of your own teeth and describe to your doctor what that smile looks like. There is no one else who can be you, so it’s up to you to decide exactly what “being you” means. After all, you’re 100 percent unique and you deserve a smile to match.
The next time you see the blinding white of a celebrity’s manufactured smile beaming down at you from a billboard, remind yourself that what you see is just that – manufactured. Your own smile should reflect your unique personality. We encourage you to embrace your own ideal smile, and when you’re ready, our orthodontic office in Norman is here to help you do just that.
