We’ve all been there–you picked a terrible New Year’s resolution and there is no way you stuck with it all year. It’s not your fault! The problem comes when you end up spending the first few weeks or months of the year struggling through a challenging set of new habits, and you end up exhausted or distracted by the normal challenges of life. While we know that transformations are possible, struggling endlessly on your own usually just isn’t worth it.
May we suggest a better alternative? Dr. Jared Lee recommends a healthy smile as your New Year’s resolution this year! Not only is it doable thanks to our incredible offices in Santa Paula and Oxnard, but it will totally transform your life in so many meaningful ways.
The Benefits of a Healthy Smile:
Confidence
What is the first thing you notice when you meet someone new? The chances are good that it’s their smile. And it’s not only about how white or straight it might be, but how confidently they show it off. We use our smiles every day to communicate kindness, care, and confidence to the world.
Dr. Jared Lee is eager to see all of his patients grow more confident through orthodontic transformations. The craziest part is by this time next year, you could be well on your way to the smile you’ve been dreaming of!
Accountability
Have you noticed that when you try to create a new habit all alone, it’s much more overwhelming than when you do it with someone else? It doesn’t matter what the resolution might be, at the end of the day we are social creatures who thrive best in supportive communities!
Dr. Jared Lee’s office offers the best kind of supportive community when it comes to your smile transformation! The teams at his offices are friendly professionals who know how to offer all the support you’ll need throughout your treatment. If you have questions or concerns with oral health care, payment plans, emergencies, and more, they will be with you every step of the way.
Health
We all know that orthodontics can create a stunning smile, but not everyone realizes how important it is for your health! Aligned teeth are happy teeth because they support the jaw and facial health, as well as make it easier to clean and care for them.
Crooked teeth can trap more food particles and make it difficult to clean thoroughly even with regular brushing and flossing. That might eventually lead to bigger problems, like plaque, tartar, cavities, tooth decay, and more! Straight teeth with orthodontics help mitigate those issues, which will keep your teeth healthier for longer.
