These are the people we want to spend more time with. These are the people the rest of us want to be! A confident smile lifts our spirits and lowers our guard. It can make us perceive others as more successful, intelligent and friendly. ![Text which says 'Your smile is your superpower'](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/superpower.svg) ![](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/play-btn-1.png) ![TED Talks logo](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/ted_logo%20copy.png) The hidden power of smiling ## But not everyone is so lucky...

A DSD smile perfectly matches whatever character traits you want it to. Whether that's your deeper, inner self, your physical features, or a confident new you that you've never shown to the world before. The choice is yours. ### Does your smile reflect your character? If you want to appear more approachable or easy-going, your teeth shape can be changed to convey this. ### Does the appearance of your teeth tell people the story you want it to? Changes to your teeth can make you appear more authoritative and trustworthy **Traditionally, dentists have focused solely on teeth and gums. But Emotional Dentistry goes much further. We look at the whole person. That’s because we understand one crucial thing: a real smile comes from the soul, not the mouth.** The art of Emotional Dentistry is similar to the skill of an architect, interior designer or sculptor. They understand the universal truths about shape, proportion and symmetry. About how the arrangement of light, space, and form can either look harmonious and pleasing, or jarring and unnatural. How some shapes can excite us and others can make us feel calm and safe. A real smile comes from the soul, not the mouth.
