Can I do anything about my crooked smile (photos)?

Question

my smile is so crooked. not the lip part of it if that makes sense but the actual alignment. you can see it clearly in the picture, it’s like the left side of my jaw is slanted and brings my teeth down with it. I’ve looked all over and can’t find anyone with a similar problem. the left side of my face is general a little lower than the right, maybe because I definitely primarily chew on my right side? any advice would be awesome, thanks!

Your best option is to see an orthodontist to have this corrected.  Braces are definitely the ideal option to straighten and level out your smile.

Hi:It appears that your teeth on your righ side are not at the same position and length as your left side.  You might want to consider orthodontic treatment to move the teeth farther out and down.  The second option is to get porcelain veneers to bring your teeth out and make it longer to match your left side.I suggest that you consult an experienced cosmetic dentist specializing in anti aging dentistry.Best,Dr. Maddahi

I would recommend a consultation with an orthodontist for braces/invisalign to level your teeth. The other is option is porcelain veneers to improve the shape and symmetry of your teeth.
