Teeth whitening for social media – the dream of being an influencer

Anyone who wants to be truly successful on the platforms must present themselves as a complete package. This includes, among other things, the produced content (photos, videos, stories), the featured advertising partners, the comments on other people's posts, and also the appearance (the face behind a channel).

The keyword is authenticity, which in this case means that all individual puzzle pieces come together to form a coherent whole. If you are the face behind a brand (a channel), your facial expressions must match what is being said in order to convey your message to the outside world.

Are you unsure about your teeth, you tend to purse your lips or try not to show your teeth. This is noticeable and can be avoided with proper dental care.

Are image editing programs the saviors in times of need?

No. Editing programs for your photos and videos are generally okay. You can make color adjustments and minor changes without any problems. However, if you edit your body or face, you need to be careful that it doesn't look fake (inauthentic!).

Also your teeth can also be digitally whitened with various tools. However, this does not work in live streams or video conferences, and especially not in real life. Depending on the situation, it may also be the case that multiple cameras capture you from different angles, showing your entire face. You can't hide anything in this case.

When you are in public, you will meet people in real life. And it will become clear that your pictures do not actually show you, but a heavily altered version of you. This comes across as unprofessional and does not sit well with your followers.

What can I do instead?

Especially when it comes to your teeth, there is a lot you can do. In addition to regular dental care (brushing, flossing, etc.), you might consider teeth whitening. You have probably heard the term bleaching in this context. This usually refers to a treatment at the dentist. However, you can also whiten your teeth at home in a simpler, more affordable, and gentler way. The results are immediately visible, and this method is gentle on the enamel of your teeth.

At OnlySmile, there are various products for teeth whitening at home. In just 30 minutes, you can lighten yellow stains and get your radiant smile back. A nice side effect: white teeth boost your self-confidence! This is especially important in the social media realm.
