Want to improve upper teeth show. Am I a good candidate for a lip lift? (photos)

dashaaJul 10, 2023
I had the jaw surgery half a year ago, but unfortunately my upper teeth still do not show. I don’t like it. I consultanted with doctors and on of them proposed the lip lift. Now, i’m not sure what ever it will improve the upper teeth show if I do it together with composite bonding to make my teeth longer. Am I a good candidate for lip lift?

A lip lift does 4 things: shortens the distance between your nose and upper lip, increases the mucosa of the upper lip, increases the incisor show and pulls up the corners. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Dissolvable stitches are not a substitute for taking sutures out at the right time. Will waiting a few extra days make a difference? Well it can make a difference. A responsible office would not force you to practice surgery on yourself by putting you in the situation of "choosing" which type of...
