Smiling and Networking: Pearl Dental Clinic Dubai

Networking is about building meaningful relationships.The best start to a meaningful relationship is a smile. A genuine smile. Not the cheesy, I am just smiling because I am supposed to smile, smile, but that natural smile that is so contagious that people can’t resist smiling back smile.

A smile humanizes you and makes you more approachable and in networking that is extremely important. Plus smiling improves your appearance, creates trust and rapport and overall just helps you and the others around you to feel good. And in networking, smiling shows that you are open to conversation.

As with all good things, there are some smiling “hazards” that you should probably avoid during networking such as:
  • The closed lip smile which can give the impression that you are hiding something or harboring a secret. You want to be trusted, so nix the close lipped smile.
  • The forced smile. I am sure you have seen these before, they are so, well, unnatural. Better to just not smile at all. If you’re not feeling it, don’t fake it. You don’t want to give the impression that you aren’t interested or paying attention.
  • And definitely, beware of the sneer. This can indicate sarcasm and disrespect. Under the right circumstances and used in the right way, it can be funny, but most often a sneer will give a negative impression and you should probably avoid using it.
Even with your years of experience, it can be easy to forget this powerful secret weapon of yours.
Some quick tips to keep you smiling include:

  • Before you pick up the phone to call someone to connect with, think about something funny or positive so the person you are talking to can “hear” your smile.
  • Before you go to a networking event, remind yourself to smile so you are more approachable.

Should I wear a Night guard to stop teeth grinding?

Bruxism (BRUK-siz-um) is a condition in which you grind, gnash or clench your teeth. If you have bruxism, you may unconsciously clench your teeth when you're awake (awake bruxism) or clench or grind them during sleep (sleep bruxism). Sleep bruxism is considered a sleep-related movement disorder. People who clench or grind their teeth (brux) during sleep are more likely to have other sleep disorders, such as snoring and pauses in breathing (sleep apnea). Mild bruxism may not require treatment. However, in some people, bruxism can be frequent and severe enough to lead to jaw disorders, headaches, damaged teeth and other problems. Because you may have sleep bruxism and be unaware of it until complications develop, it's important to know the signs and symptoms of bruxism and to seek regular dental care. A night guard, also known as a dental guard, is prescribed to patients to help treat  bruxism , aka  Teeth Grinding . If you  grind  your teeth at night, i...

Ask the Dentist: Is Mouthwash good for you ?

Using mouthwash regularly can be very beneficial to your oral health. Still, there are a lot of people who don’t use mouthwash correctly or effectively enough to reap the full benefits of a rinse. If you plan on adding or keeping mouthwash in your dental regimen, there are few things to remember the next time you swish: 1. You should gargle and swish for at least 60 seconds. Most of the chemicals found in mouthwash will not even begin to work until 1 minute has passed. Otherwise, you’re just swilling and spitting out. 2. Use mouthwash alongside other brushing and flossing. Remember that mouthwash gives your oral health a boost, not a cure for problems . 3. Stick to alcohol free mouthwash. Most of the problems associated with mouthwash come from the high alcohol content. Using alcohol free rinse will be safer for your gums and teeth while still giving them the care they need. 4. Ask your friendly dentist at Pearl Dental clinic, what mouthwash is best for you. Nobody knows wha...

DENTAL MASTERS: Dental Implant cost and bad breath !!

Dental implants use metal posts or frames to surgically position artificial teeth into your jawbone. Because they fuse to your jawbone, they become virtually a permanent and secure part of mouth. Unlike dentures and bridges, implants stay in place so you don’t have to worry about your teeth moving as you eat or speak. Implants feel more natural than dentures, and a professional cosmetic dentist in Houston, TX, can ensure smile perfection. However, there’s a potential downside to dental implants. They can cause bad breath. The good news is bad breath caused by dental implants is fixable! In most instances, bad breath in people with dental implants is caused by an infection. But sometimes, the signs of the infection can be subtle. The signs can be as subtle as a bad taste in your mouth, bleeding gums, or gum swelling.
