In a nutshell, here’s what the study found after surveying 1,000 U.S. adults ages 18 and older.
Better social life if their smile was improved; 36 percent who are unhappy with their smile believe they would have a better social life if their smile was improved. This is true especially true among young adults. 48 percent of Americans ages 18 to 24 have untagged a picture of themselves on Facebook because they didn’t like their smile.
Biggest dating turnoff among men and women? You got it… bad teeth. According to the study, 77 percent of women think crooked teeth are worse than a receding hairline in a potential love interest. The study also found that 22 percent of Americans who are unhappy with their smile think that better teeth would lead to a better love life.
On a professional level… 78 percent of Americans perceive adults with crooked teeth to be unsuccessful. Fourteen percent of those unhappy with their teeth felt that they might be missing out on a better job. What do you think?
