How to learn to smile beautifully - the secret of a Hollywood smile


March 20 is the International Day of Happiness, proclaimed in 2012. The presence (or absence) of a smile on the face is one of the key indicators of how happy a person feels. It is difficult to sincerely enjoy life with a gloomy face.

At the same time, the ability to smile beautifully not only helps you look better in photographs, but also changes the tone of your speech. Radio DJs know this - they always smile when speaking into the microphone. At the same time, learning to smile is not so difficult - the main thing is to regularly practice this habit.

Correct smile - theory and practice

A beautiful smile is a relaxed face, happy eyes and the correct width of mouth opening. Remember that the bottom row of teeth should never be visible when smiling, otherwise it will be perceived as an aggressive grin. With a proper smile, teeth need to be shown only partially - in fact, only the center of the top row.

To learn how to smile beautifully, practice in front of a mirror. Relax your face, then smile to show the top six middle teeth (the bottom row is covered by your lip). If your face looks tense, relax your tongue and lightly bite (rather press) the tip between the center of your teeth. Smile a little wider, showing your side teeth as well.

How to smile in a photograph?

The secret to a beautiful smile is regular practice. Having caught the eye of a random person on the street, Americans and Europeans first smile (this is the main sign of good intentions), and only then say hello. The absence of a smile is perceived as an indicator of aloofness and even rudeness.

Maintaining such a “mini-smile” trains the facial muscles, making them more mobile. If you try to squeeze out a smile from time to time, it is not surprising that you do not like the result at all. In order to smile correctly, you need to do it constantly.

How to smile with your eyes?

A proper smile means relaxed facial muscles. Your face should not indicate that you are tense, trying to “pull” a happy emotion onto yourself. One of the ways to relax your face is to touch the back surface of your front teeth with the tip of your tongue - this is what the Hollywood smile technique is based on.

To learn to smile beautifully and correctly, it is best to start by developing the ability to smile with your eyes. Look at yourself in the mirror, then cover your teeth and mouth with your hand. Think about something pleasant and smile slightly (without seeing your smile), carefully monitoring the position of the muscles around the eyes in order to “catch” this position and then repeat it.

How to make your smile wider?

If your bottom row of teeth is irregularly shaped, you must learn to smile in a way that partially hides them. It is extremely important to show the surface of the upper row of teeth while relaxing your face and trying to smile sincerely with your eyes.

Remember also that the width of a smile largely depends on the shape of the lips. Unless you have very large lips, an overly stretched and wide smile will create an impression of tension and anxiety. You need to learn to smile so that the canines of the upper row of teeth only lightly touch the lower lip - but are not completely exposed.

Beautiful smile and face type

A smile can change the visual perception of the shape of the face and skull in the same way that a haircut changes a woman's face or a beard changes a man's face. For example, people with a long face are advised to focus on the vertical aspect of their teeth and not smile too widely or too openly - this will not be read as a beautiful smile, but as an indicator of aggression.

For those with square and round faces, a wide smile, on the contrary, will help make the face visually more oval and “correct” - while a smile with a closed mouth will create the impression of modesty. In turn, for people with an oval face type, both a modest smile with a closed mouth and a wide Hollywood smile are suitable.

In fact, a correct and beautiful smile is a combination of joyful and calm eyes with moderate tension of the facial muscles, allowing only the upper row of teeth to show. In order to learn to smile, it is important to practice.

Example 6. The charm of a teenage smile

But I met this patient when he was very young, a teenager. When you carry out orthodontic treatment at a younger age, you have a certain responsibility that you are giving him a smile that will accompany him throughout his life and which he will probably live up to. And when he was still very little, when he came, his smile was very modest, closed, shy.

And the boy himself was so shy. And during the process of orthodontic treatment (it took us about a year and a half), the boy grew, became an increasingly mature young man, and at the end of the treatment he had a simply amazing smile!

He began to take more care of himself. He showed masculine charm: look at his hairstyle and styling. Growing up and moving to high school began. Ahead - all the first dates, adolescence)

Could I imagine that he would reveal the potential of his smile so much during treatment?

It was actually an experiment, because when you start orthodontic treatment, you already know in advance what kind of smile a person will have, because as an orthodontist, I model all this, build the treatment. But no matter what the patient will become after orthodontic treatment, and what his emotions will be like, it is never possible to predict.

That is, as a doctor, I make certain prerequisites and give him a “field for activity,” and then he himself begins to reveal his smile potential. And when a person’s smile becomes beautiful, wide, charming, and when the patient begins to further transform himself, then everything together gives him self-confidence and, let’s say, an excellent open future for global achievements.

Exercises for a beautiful smile

  5. Close your lips tightly, stretch them forward, and try to draw the number “eight” in the air with your lips. Then relax. Repeat up to 5 times.
