SMILING AFFECTS OTHERS
When other people see your smile, they may treat you differently. They may see you as confident, and they may also see you as sincere. Interestingly, many people equate a beautiful smile with attractiveness. People tend to remember the smile of other people, and it may be, that a smile is the most important factor in determining the attractiveness of another person.
Smiling does not only determine how attractive a person may be, but it may also determine the response of another person. If a person has an agreeable facial expression, it is likely to be mimicked.
