I want to get a neck lift and possibly lower face lift. I also want to have cosmetic dentistry as my teeth are very small and I look toothless when I smile. Does it matter which one I have done first? I am 62. . My dentist put composite on my 4 front teeth to make them a little longer and I had my teeth whitened. I had an underbite that was corrected surgically when I was 25, my lower mandible was pushed back 3 millimeters.
