Just send a picture with your awesome Bachmannsmile.The Link Between Smiling and HappinessSmiling is a universal sign of happiness. No matter what country you go to or what culture you take in, smiling is a sign of joy and acceptance. The main reason for that is because studies have shown that when a person is smiling, it affects specific muscles that can make that person feel happy. In addition, when you use these particular muscles, your brain will release endorphins, which are brain chemicals that will induce feelings of pleasure and euphoria. So smiling indeed does have the ability to make you happier – even if you have to force yourself into doing so!.What can we do to make you smile?Call Candice with a smile 09 448 1128 or send us a smile email. ...#smile #contagious #science #neurons #bachmannsmile #bachmannorthodontics #specialistorthodontist #flirt #relationship #laugh #braces #relationship #tinder #single #invisiblebraces #speedbraces #virus #health #invisalign #happiness #shoolzone #friendship #friends #relationship #teeth #universalsmileage
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
