Your boss. Your boyfriend. Your sister. We care about people and want them to look their best. But teeth whitening can be a sensitive subject (no pun intended) and treatments\u00a0can vary in price and effectiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>Why should&nbsp;people want&nbsp;a fresh, gleaming smile? What\u2019s the best way to break the news?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Encourage teeth whitening with a subtle approach<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the American Dental Association, in the past 20 years, teeth whitening has become one of the most popular esthetic dental treatments. The industry has been inundated with at-home&nbsp;treatments\u2026 from pens, strips, or even at-home trays\u2026 lights included.&nbsp;Why?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few reasons why everyone (including your friend) should get rid of that antique-looking&nbsp;smile:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Look younger<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Do people with white teeth actually look younger? Well, according to a study conducted by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/femail\/article-2307430\/White-teeth-make-look-younger-employable-Holly-Willoughby-envied-smile-say-dentists.html#ixzz4EK2vBiyl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">OralB<\/a>, it\u2019s true! You can look <strong>five years younger and 20% more attractive<\/strong> with a whiter smile. Who doesn&#8217;t want those kind of results?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So try this with your friend:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>\u201cHey, I read this article that professionally whitening your teeth can make you look five years younger. Sign me up, right? Have you ever thought about doing it?\u201d<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Improve self-confidence<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Packaging sells. If your packaging looks good and you feel good in your skin, your confidence will translate to success. Not only your business life but also your personal life will improve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why not bait your friend with this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>\u201cMy dentist is offering an amazing whitening promotion this month! We have that big networking dinner coming up. If I look good, I\u2019ll feel super confident and make more contacts for sure! You want in?\u201d<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Make a statement<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First impressions are lasting impressions. Your smile is one of the first things people notice about you and whitening your teeth gives plenty of bang for your buck.&nbsp;After your first treatment,&nbsp;it&#8217;s much easier to stay on a schedule each year with your dentist to keep your pearly whites as white as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sell it this way:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>\u201cI need a change. I\u2019m going to get my teeth whitened and spruce up my look! What do you think? Have you ever thought about it?\u201d<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If your clever statements to encourage your friend to improve their smile are not working as fast or as well as you planned, don\u2019t give up. There is something more you can do!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is the BEST way to tell someone to&nbsp;brighten their smile?<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-10361\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.westgatedentalcare.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/woman-with-gleaming-white-smile-noticed-by-friend.jpg\" alt=\"Inspiring teeth whitening by showing off your gleaming white smile.\" class=\"wp-image-10361\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">If\u00a0you&#8217;ve got a gorgeous pearly white smile, others\u00a0will ask you how they can look as good as you!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Whiten YOUR&nbsp;teeth and&nbsp;inspire others<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We think the <strong>best way<\/strong> to inspire&nbsp;someone is not by what you say, but by <strong>your example<\/strong>.
