Why Are More American Adults Looking to Have Straighter Teeth?

April 29, 2014
cosmetic dental work

According to a recent study by the American Association of Orthodontics, the number of American adults who are looking to have their teeth straightened with cosmetic dental work is going through the roof. Between 2010 and 2012, adults seeking orthodontic work from their cosmetic dental clinic rose by 14%. In 2014, some cosmetic and family dentists have even found that the majority of their orthodontic patients are adults. In a recent interview with The Naperville Sun, Dr. Jacqueline Zimmer, a dentist in the Western New York town of Oswego, said that 75% of patients looking for corrective cosmetic dental work in her practice are adults. What’s behind this sudden interest by American adults?

A Beautiful Smile is the Key to Finding Social Success

For many, correcting their smiles is all about finding success in love and friendship. Consider, according to a study by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, a whopping 96% of Americans believe that having a great looking smile is the key to attracting a mate. Americans realize that by seeking out a cosmetic family dentistry professional, their chances at finding social success dramatically increase.

Crooked Teeth Could Kill Your Career

Of course, making the decision to seek out cosmetic dental work for straighter teeth isn’t just about finding love. Would you be surprised to hear that a less-than-perfect smile can actually harm your chances at succeeding in your professional life? As statistics from Dental Plans show, 72% of people believe that an unattractive smile can hurt your chances at professional success. Further, 5% believe they have been actively discriminated against because of their crooked teeth.

Given that cosmetic dental work offers so many advantages, both in our professional and personal lives, is it any wonder that more and more American adults are looking to tweak their smiles? If you’re tired of being made fun of or passed over for that promotion because of your smile, you need to realize that there are professionals ready to help you.

I’m the type of person that is scared of the dentist have been my whole life. I scheduled consultation with Dr Ron and he answered all my questions and more. He and his staff are great they made me feel comfortable the whole time. They used sedation for my implant procedure and it was the best decision I have ever made!! I had zero pain whatsoever. The best thing is that they have gave me the ability to smile again and to be happy. Thank you to everyone at New Albany Implants. I recommend them to anyone needing dental implants.

Amazing experience. If anyone is anxious about seeing a dentist I can assure you don’t have to be with Dr. Receveur. My only regret is not having it done sooner. His staff is pretty awesome too.

I recently had implants put in by Dr. Receveur. I was scheduled to have sedation that morning, but wasn't able to due to my sugar issues from diabetes. He assured me he would keep me comfortable so I agreed to go ahead with the procedure. He did just that, he kept me comfortable as promised and I didn't feel a thing. During the procedure he also talked to me the whole time explaining what he was doing, which also helped ease my anxiety. The entire staff there are so nice and informative, they can answer any questions you may have. All I can say is to anyone that is hesitant to have this procedure done, I honestly wish I would have had this done a long time ago! Dr. Receveur and his staff are AMAZING, and I would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat!
