加拿大的一项调查显示,由于牙科的自我意识,大多数人隐藏了笑容,促使开展了全国运动,争取更好的口腔保健。 A Canadian survey reveals most people hide smiles due to dental self-consciousness, prompting a nationwide campaign for better oral health care.

由123Dentist委托对1500名加拿大人进行的Leger调查发现,如果牙齿更健康或看起来更好,51%的加拿大人会笑得更多,38%的加拿大人因为自我意识而避免在照片或社交环境中的笑容。 A Leger survey of 1,500 Canadians, commissioned by 123Dentist, found that 51% would smile more if their teeth were healthier or looked better, with 38% avoiding smiles in photos or social settings due to self-consciousness. 64%的人对自己的微笑不满意, 97%的人认为口腔健康对整体健康至关重要。 Sixty-four percent are dissatisfied with their smile, and 97% believe oral health is vital to overall health. 这些结果在世界微笑日之前发布,促使123个丹麦人发起全加拿大的微笑运动,在10个城市举办一首新歌、吉祥物、广告和社区活动,通过每年为200多万患者服务的450多个诊所,促进以病人为中心的护理。 The findings, released ahead of World Smile Day, prompted 123Dentist to launch the Smiles Across Canada campaign, featuring a new song, mascot, advertising, and community events in ten cities, promoting patient-centered care through over 450 clinics serving more than two million patients annually.
