In economics, the term “positive externality” refers to the positive and indirect impact resulting from a transaction. For example, a beekeeper houses bees for their honey. As an indirect benefit, the bees pollinate surrounding crops, thus adding to their value. Similar value is found in a smile. When one gets reconstructive dentistry completed to benefit their health and appearance there are a variety of positive externalities associated with it.

A healthy attractive smile provides the individual with a new sense of confidence and overall happiness. This translates into how other people respond to them, as their new positive energy is often reciprocated.  This reciprocation can be as small as a smile from a stranger or as big as a promotion at work. The possible hidden benefits of a smile makeover are endless.
