New AACD Research: The Smile Most Attractive At Any Age (2)

More Good News: A Great Smile is the Key to Aging Well.

Here's something else to share with your patients...if they want to look youthful, they should invest in their teeth!

According to our survey respondents, nearly half (45%) think a person’s smile can defy the effects of aging while eyes come in a distant second (34%).

In comparison, fewer adults find the following features likely to age well:

• Body shape (10%)

• Hair (6%)

• Legs (5%)

 

Perhaps speaking from experience, 54% of the U.S. population 50+ can attest that a smile is the feature that can overcome decades of birthdays most attractively.

This is far more than 39% of younger counterparts who feel the same!

 

 

And, a Great Smile is More Appealing to the Opposite Sex!

This may seem like a no-brainer, but more than one-third of respondents said they view people with a flawed smile to be less attractive (37%) and less confident than those with perfect teeth.

More women than men (40% vs. 35%) agree that an imperfect smile makes someone less appealing than a person with a perfect smile.

It’s no secret we only have one chance to make a lasting first impression, which can often shape how we are perceived and remembered in both our social and professional lives.

 

A new study by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD) finds that a great smile can be our greatest asset – a feature that remains attractive even as we age and goes a long way in nailing an incredible first impression. Use this research to promote your work and help your patients achieve the smile of their dreams!

What Kind of First Impression Do Your Patients Want to Make?

Chances are, they want to make a good one. Luckily, more people are willing to invest in their teeth than other self-improvements...including weight loss!

According to our research, a whopping 80 percent admit they would spend money to maintain a youthful appearance.

More women than men (84% vs. 75%) are willing to make this investment. And since many believe that turning 30 gives you plenty to dread, it’s not surprising that those, ages 30-39, are more likely than any other age groups (88% vs. 78%) to consider shelling out money for their looks.
