I have a crooked mouth/lower face. What procedure would give me symmetry + make my upper teeth show? (Photo)

All of these pictures are snapshots of how I look when I talk. My mouth is very awkward. I can't smile correctly. My top teeth don't show at all, and I just looked very awkward when I talk. I don't want to waste my money on anything that's not going to fix the root of the issue I have to use my resting face to look normal. What procedure would give my smile and face symmetry and show my upper teeth as well?
