\"\"YES, REAL RELATIONSHIPS DEVELOP<\/strong> over time. We all know that. But there are certain situations where an incredible first impression<\/strong> goes a long, long way. One of those times is when you\u2019re advancing your career and interviewing for jobs.<\/p>\n

50% Of Interviewers Will Remember Your Smile… 9% Will Remember What You Wore<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A recent study<\/strong><\/a> by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry suggests that half of adults absolutely remember other people\u2019s smiles after having been introduced to them. That\u2019s far more than the 9% who will remember a new acquaintance\u2019s clothing. Cool, lime green shirt (above)<\/em>… But your smile will impress even more!<\/p>\n

Brighter Smile = Higher Starting Salary?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Your smile can have a direct impact on your career opportunities. A 2007 study<\/a><\/strong> simulating job interviews showed that people were more likely to be offered jobs\u2014and offered higher starting salaries\u2014after they had whitened their teeth. Subjects were also perceived to be more professional and more confident<\/strong> after teeth whitening.<\/p>\n

What Will People Remember About YOUR Smile? <\/strong><\/h3>\n

It may not always seem fair, but people make assumptions based on one\u2019s smile. The beauty is that, armed with knowledge (and an awesome dentist), YOU can take charge<\/strong> of the way people perceive you in professional situations such as interviews.<\/p>\n

Make A Good Impression So They\u2019ll Get To Know You On The Inside<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Sometimes getting past first impressions with flying colors gives you the chance to let the \u201creal\u201d you come through. After all, that\u2019s the most important part. Here\u2019s some additional job hunting advice:<\/p>\n

It\u2019s Not About Perfection. It\u2019s About Confidence.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The most important aspect of a great smile isn\u2019t whether or not you have perfectly straight teeth or a perfect smile. It\u2019s all about the confidence your smile brings. If there\u2019s anything causing you to be self-conscious about your smile, talk with us<\/strong>. We can walk you through some ideas, and create a plan to fix the situation if you\u2019d like.<\/p>\n
