Pride is a movement of love and acceptance that is sweeping the nation, and getting bigger every year. But outside of June, feeling that Pride can be difficult, especially when you’re not happy with your smile.
Acceptance is hard enough to find, and having a bad smile can lead to further judgement and isolation. So how can Brighter Image Lab help you feel proud of your smile?
Pride in Your Smile
Pride is most known for it’s colorful parades, but not many are aware that Pride started as a protest. Our ability to celebrate today is thanks to hard work by previous generations. While we can celebrate marriage equality and protections against workplace discrimination, there are still issues the LGBTQ community continues to face.
LGBTQ people are more likely to experience trouble with their mental health. This mostly stems from environmental factors, like family support and peer acceptance. With such high rates of depression, the LGBTQ community could benefit from the power of a smile.
Smiling is reported as more than a reaction to happiness. In fact, research tells us fake smiles can trick our brains into being happier. When we smile, our brain releases happiness endorphins like dopamine and serotonin. These chemicals are linked to reducing stress, lowering heart rates, and can help us process pain.
While there are many benefits to a good smile, a bad smile can become an obstacle to our lives. Many adults (74%) believe that a bad smile has a negative effect on job seekers, and romantic partners are more likely to avoid someone with a broken smile.
But getting a better smile can cost a fortune, with some dentists reported to be charging $1,000 per tooth. And most insurance won’t cover cosmetic work.
LGBTQ people face higher rates of poverty (22%) than their straight counter parts (16%). And the difference becomes larger for those who are transgender (29%) or non-white and LGBTQ (30%). With many in the community facing such a tight budget, it’s hard to find affordable ways to improve broken, missing, or misaligned teeth.
Thankfully, Brighter Image Lab has developed a smile solution for under $1,000. You’re not paying for the luxurious living of a cosmetic dentist, you’re paying for a better smile!
Each order of our dental veneers is custom made. By using an impression system and 3D software, we scan a digital profile of your teeth to create a unique smile that snaps into place. It fits over your existing teeth like a glove, covering any flaws or insecurities.
Once our smile designers have finished hand polishing and detailing your new smile, it’s shipped to your front door. You get a better smile without having to ever see a dentist!
Brighter Image Lab might just be the smile solution you’ve been looking for, but what else does our process do for the community?
