Don't Hide Your Unhealthy Smile - Improve It Instead

After spending years with gum disease, I can honestly tell you that I absolutely love my smile now. I spent so much time hiding my gum disease from other people. No matter who I met, I simply refused to smile. I lost so many chances to make new friends - people I could hang out with, or even talk to after work.

I believe that your smile opens doors to new opportunities in life. You just need to be brave enough to take them.
