Smiling is Also Good for Your Mental Health

While we don't profess to be psychologists—we're happy enough being a community dentist in Van Nuys, North Hollywood, and Northridge—the team here at Hamlin Dental Group believes that our work can boost the spirits of our patients.

For one, we know that low self-esteem coming from unhappiness with a person's smile can have a serious negative impact on a patient. Many who come into Hamlin Dental Group for a dentist in North Hollywood, Northridge, or Van Nuys don't feel fully confident in revealing their full smile. This can affect their feelings of self-worth and the way they interact with others. However, after a smile makeover from Hamlin Dental Group, these patients can leave happy, confident, and full of smiles.

Once our patients are out there and smiling more, their mental and physical health is bound to improve. One study published in Psychological Science showed that smiling (even faking it) reduces a person's stress level. We're confident that our patients who have a new-found pride in their smiles will begin leading a life with a little less stress.

So, please contact the Hamlin Dental team to schedule a meeting with a dentist in Northridge, North Hollywood, or Van Nuys.
