Smiling can be a therapy that improves our lives in many ways and Dr. Steven Ghim can help you figure out what would improve your smile so you can live a better and more fulfilling life.
Here are some of the effects smiling therapy can have on your life and your body.

Improved Dental Health

Perhaps the most obvious health benefit of having a nice smile, a better smile can also mean better dental health. Having a dental professional take a look at your teeth will not only make your smile more attractive, but improve your overall dental health.
In addition to cosmetic dentistry services, dental professionals can give you a general cleaning and give you advice on how to better care for your teeth. From fluoride treatments to custom made night guards, you’ll have everything you need to maintain your new pearly whites!

Boosts Immune System

Smiling in stressful situations tricks our bodies into relaxing, leading to a lower heart rate and blood pressure. This is because the act of smiling releases the hormone serotonin. In the long-term, smiling relaxes our bodies so much, our bodies become better equipped to handle sickness.
Since one of the best health benefits of smiling is allowing our bodies to better fight off disease, it’s worth your while to fix your smile!
