University of Reading meteorologists declared 2025 as one of the hottest summers since their records began. Given they started recording data in 1908, we’ll take their word for it!
As great as this news is for those who love long, lazy summer days, the flipside is that autumn’s shorter days can negatively affect people’s moods. Advice for maintaining the feeling of wellbeing engendered by spending more time outside, periods away from work, and relaxing with family and friends usually highlights finding a focus and source of enjoyment. This can raise our morale and rekindle the positive energy of the summer.
A new hobby or regular exercise are usual routes to feeling engaged and upbeat, but we have another suggestion to boost mood and confidence: teeth whitening.
Having bright, clean teeth encourages us to smile readily and easily; and there is abundant scientific evidence that smiling directly affects the hormones that inspire an optimistic mindset.
A wide range of DIY teeth whitening materials are on sale, but the advice from the British Dental Association regarding teeth whitening is: ‘…whitening is perfectly safe if carried out by a registered dental professional… anyone else won’t have the right training or knowledge and could cause permanent damage to your teeth and gums.’
At Viva Dental Studio we have the highly trained dental professionals that you can rely upon to deliver this process safely and effectively. We use a variety of different treatments, depending upon your teeth, timescale and clinical need; and our dentists are happy to discuss the most suitable option for you.
