The Modern Day Equivalent of Braces
I have had bad teeth for my entire life. Sure, I’ve taken good care of them but regardless of how pearly white they are, I am very self conscious about their appearance since they look so unconventional. I never thought I would get them fixed, I always just assumed it was my cross to bear. However, I find myself in my late thirties and considering finally doing something about it since I think it’s holding me back in my career.
I’ve been seeing lots of commercials over the past few years for Invisalign london. This, I think, is what got me thinking about it in the first place. I don’t know that I could handle the strange looks I might get if I had a mouthful of metal braces at my age. However, Invisalign seems like an option that is hard to notice and is probably perceived as “cool” even if it is. It might even become a conversation piece when entertaining new clients.
To be honest, I found it pretty hard to believe that something of this nature could really straighten teeth. I mentioned this to my dentist during my last visit and he said a lot to ease my mind. This is a proven technique with thousands of happy clients. He even showed me a short video that detailed the process and showed testimonials of many happy users, all with a huge, beautiful smile. I have scheduled my initial consultation and I am more than likely going to go ahead and give it a shot. I’m not going to lie, I’m a little scared about the entire process but certainly not as scared as I would be were I getting conventional braces.
The idea of having straight teeth after all these years is certainly intriguing. I’ve been hesitant to smile since my early years so it will be a huge adjustment to not hide my teeth. I make my living through sales so making a good impression and gaining trust is what is required to be successful. Will an attractive smile help me land more clients? I sure hope so. I’ve been moderately successful up to this point and I have to wonder if my failures have anything to do with a hesitance to smile, which could be perceived as a sign of dishonesty.
It’s funny how life serves up so many twists and turns. I constantly find myself in odd situations, making odd decisions in an effort to improve my quality of life. Sure, some of these decisions are major and affect everyone around me. This one would seem to really only affect me and I wonder if that is why I am so nervous about it. I guess I’m just not used to worrying about my own needs rather than the needs of those around me.
