Lip augmentation with buck teeth to cover them? (photos)

Question

My two upper middle front teeth protrude forward a lot. I'm trying to find an orthodontics solution. But wondering until then , if lip augmentation would help cover them up and if with lip injectors I could have a more balanced smile. Or would it make my smile worse by bringing more focus to my bad teeth?

Thank you for your question. Lip augmentation can create more volume, and improve your teethy smile. I suggest that you consult with your board certified facial plastic surgeon because you may be a candidate for lip augmentation through non-surgical procedures such as fillers and / or surgical procedures such as the lip lift.
Best wishes,

Lip augmentations with fillers is a great option to improve the fullness, suppleness and symmetry of the lips. I prefer to use a micro cannula to inject the lips to prevent bruising. Look for a cosmetic dermatologist or plastic surgeon who is an expert in fillers. 
I hope this helps.

Although a little filler in the lips could make them a bit more symmetric and attractive i would not suggest the use for covering your teeth. Too much filler will distort your face with an un-natural face.i would put my efforts and resources into finding and completing a dental solution. Good Luck!
