Hiding your smile – a small habit, big consequences

Have you ever pressed your lips together when smiling or covered your mouth with your hand to hide your teeth? Maybe you’ve held back a smile in front of a camera, looked down when surrounded by others, or simply stopped yourself from laughing. Embarrassment, shame or insecurity about one’s teeth are not uncommon. Unfortunately, for many, they’ve become part of everyday life. What we often don’t realize is that hiding our smile gradually becomes a silent habit that changes how we feel and how we see ourselves. When we start holding back our smile, we lose not only a facial expression but also a part of our personality, spontaneity and self-confidence. At Policlinico Arena Dental, we believe that everyone deserves a smile they can show with pride. That’s why we want to talk openly about how a “small” insecurity can have “big” consequences – and how it’s possible to change that with simple steps.
