Milwaukee Area Dentist Tony Cigno Publishes New Article Revealing Why A Great Smile Leads to Smiling More and Greater Happiness

Milwaukee area dentist Dr. Tony Cigno shares how smiling has a positive impact on happiness.

Greenfield, WI — July 6, 2017 — Wisconsin Dentist Tony Cigno recently published an article titled, “Be Happy by Smiling More? Why It’s Important to Have a Smile You LOVE!

Dr. Tony CignoAs Dr. Cigno explains, a healthy smile – made up of healthy teeth and healthy gums – makes you more confident about sharing that smile with others. That’s why giving you a smile you want to share as much as possible, is Cigno’s primary goal.

In the piece, Dr. Cigno goes on to provide six specific reasons to smile more. For example, he shares, smiling makes you appear happier, healthier, and younger. He quotes a study published in Psychology and Aging where people were asked to guess the age of persons unknown to them, in photographs. If the people in the pictures were smiling, the study participants overwhelmingly guessed their ages much lower than their actual age.

Dr. Cigno also explains that smiling makes you healthier. As he states, “When you smile, amazing things happen to your health. Your blood pressure and heart rate decrease and your “feel-good” chemicals – endorphins and serotonin – increase.” He adds, “Since heart health often relates to overall health, it’s no surprise that smiling is such a health-booster. Furthermore, more endorphins and serotonin mean you are happier, more balanced emotionally, and less stressed—things that also impact heart and health.”

Other positive benefits of smiling include the fact that smiling is contagious, smilers tend to be more successful, and a smile makes you seem more approachable.
