Men’s Changing View Of Cosmetic Dentistry

When you meet someone important for the first time, be it an interviewer or a romantic interest, a great smile makes a great impression. You want to come into every opportunity in your life looking your best, and cosmetic dentistry is a good way to achieve this. More and more men realize the importance of self-care and a beautiful smile and are turning to cosmetic dentistry to make it happen. In addition to boosting self-esteem, it also helps give them an edge in today’s competitive world. 

Men’s View Of Self-Care Has Changed

Less than twenty-five years ago, a large portion of the male population would never consider cosmetic dentistry. There was a perception that this kind of care was for women or those who were vain or effete. Over the past couple of decades, a much healthier view of personal care treatments like cosmetic dentistry has grown. Today the line between having a filling done and getting your teeth whitened is so thin as to be irrelevant. There’s a lot of reasons this is the case, with the following being most prominent:

  • Selfie-Culture Is Here – The rise of selfie culture has been a significant factor in this fundamental change. Our appearance has more influence over how we are perceived than ever before. We need to look our best through media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Linked In, and countless dating apps. Our first impressions are being made before we’re ever seen.
  • The Brotox Revolution – Another form of cosmetic care, often referred to as Brotox, is rising. As you can probably guess, this term refers to the rising number of men opting to get botox treatments done. Even dental clinics offer these treatments, with more picking it up each day.
  • Success Rates Are Rising – When new cosmetic treatments come out, it can often take time for them to get perfected. There’s been plenty of time for the most popular, such as veneers and teeth whitening, to become honed to a science. This increased chance of success and better results have led many more to give them a go.

Countless studies reveal that the statistics are consistent. Each year, a greater percentage of the male population opts into cosmetic dentistry. We all want to look our best and know just how important that first impression is. The fact that we may not even know that we’re making that first impression due to our online presence only makes it more important.
