Which procedure would help show more teeth when smiling? (photo)

Genuine138169Jan 7, 2023
I’m 25 yo and I have always had this problem that my teeth NEVER show when I smile nor when I speak. They’re just tucked away. I have a nice set of teeth and I get really upset because I don’t have any confidence anymore since I’ve been little to smile as I have an ugly one. What procedure would I need to show my teeth more? Would it be a lip lift? Or a lip flip? Botox? Or would I have to get a dental cosmetic treatment? Please help.

Hi, 1 month is too early for a revision. I would wait at least 3 months as by then most of the healing and remodelling would have occurred
