smile sounds like such a simple thing, but it’s amazing how much power it has.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>A smile can brighten your day. When in a room full of strangers, a smile can instantly help you feel at ease. And there’s nothing better than a smile between loved ones to share happiness with one another.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>If a smile can do this much for us personally, imagine what it can do for us professionally. From your first interview to daily interactions with colleagues to important meetings, having a great smile on the job can make a huge difference in your career, and the rest of your life as well.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>\u003Cstrong>We never get a second chance to make a first impression \u003C/strong>\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>The adage is true. In a perfect world, no one would ever be judged by their appearance. But in reality – and especially in the working world – the image we present of ourselves and the confidence we exude play a major role in how others perceive us.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Confidence is crucial for most careers, and there’s no better way to exude confidence than with a bright, confident smile. Unfortunately, more than 21% of adults surveyed in a Cigna study reported feeling less confident about job interviews because of their smile or oral health – and 12% believe that their smile or oral health held them back from getting a job or promotion.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>In another study commissioned by the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO), an astonishing 78% of Americans perceive adults with crooked teeth to be unsuccessful. A Kelton Global study also confirms that people attach positive attributes like wealth, happiness, health, and intelligence to those who have straight teeth.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps the famed business author and motivational speaker Dale Carnegie says it best: “The expression one wears on one’s face is far more important than the clothes one wears on one’s back.” Our smile is a critical part of our confidence and appearance, whether we like it or not.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>\u003Cstrong>Putting your best smile forward\u003C/strong>\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>Being able to smile with confidence and build your self-esteem can be a game-changer at work, in relationships, and much more. According to the Cigna study, 93% of adults who are completely satisfied with their smile rate their self-confidence as \u003Cem>excellent\u003C/em> or \u003Cem>very good\u003C/em>. And an AAO study of adults who recently completed orthodontic treatment reported that 75% attributed improvements in their careers and personal relationships to their new smile.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Wouldn’t it be wonderful to feel confident and happy with your smile and oral health every day? Thankfully, you have lots of options to help you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.\u003C/p>\n\u003Ch2>\u003Cstrong>Treatments that perfectly match you\u003C/strong>\u003C/h2>\n\u003Cp>At Rapids Orthodontics, we offer multiple treatment options to fit your adult lifestyle, from traditional and ceramic braces that are sleek and modern to the popular Invisalign® clear aligners.  Now treatment can be so discreet that your co-workers may not even know about it!
