Have a good dental routine

Having a picture perfect smiles starts with a good dental routine. If you don’t take care of your teeth, you are less likely to smile as much as you should. So if you don’t’ have a good routine in place now is the time to implement one. This means regular brushing morning and night. Also, it is recommended to brush your teeth after eating something sugary or acidic, to protect your teeth. While I appreciate this may not always be the case sticking with a morning and night routine should suffice. You may also want to look into flossing and using a good mouthwash to enhance your dental routine.

Get regular checks to keep good dental health

As much as having a good routine in place is essential, it doesn’t just stop there. You need to keep your teeth in regular checks with your dentist. This is where any underlying problems can be highlighted and resolved before any major issues happen. This is why considering a dental plan is a good way to keep on top of these things.

If you are not so comfortable smiling then try and look at the reasons why that may be. Perhaps you are disheartened with the color of your teeth. If that is the case, there are things you can do to get more confidence. You could consider teeth whitening. This is a non-surgical procedure that can improve the way your teeth look. Often you can buy home kits or head to a dentist where they can do it for you. There are however also teeth whitening toothpaste that you can buy. They state they can improve the color of your teeth and make them up to three shades whiter.

Don’t pose and fake it

The last thing you shouldn’t do is pose or fake it. It is very obvious on any picture when someone is not smiling naturally. You can look forced, and not show any teeth. Even though you are happy and excited to be in that moment, it won’t come across when it is captured. What you want to do is to be natural and smile. Showing your true feelings.

I hope these tips help you achieve your picture perfect smile. The best advice is just to be yourself. It’s so important to experience life and enjoy the moment. Life is too short for you to feel uncomfortable, especially in front of the camera. So embrace your smile.
