What is the best option for me to fix my smile? (Photo)

Question

I am a 22 year old female. For my whole life, I have smiled showing both rows of my teeth. It’s something I have always wanted to fix and get very differing opinions on the best way to do so. Some doctors say lip fillers, others veneers, all the way to jaw surgery. I am wanting to get new opinions on the best options.

Hello, and thank you for your question. It is difficult to determine which option would be best for you since we are assessing a picture. A treatment option is best done in-person to assess one’s anatomy and concerns. Filler can be a great option to add volume and hide the teeth (somewhat). The product and the technique used could better determine this. If it is a jaw issue, filler most likely will not take care of your concerns fully, but may help in some aspect. I would recommend scheduling a consult with a provider who can better assess and discuss your needs! Hope this helps!

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

Of the options you mentioned fillers would seem to be the logical first choice.  It is least expensive, reversible, and you can get some immediate results.  Another benefit of filers is that you can go slowly and build up to the look you want.  Begin by visiting with an experienced injector near you to discuss your concerns and learn more about your options.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.
