Can a low smile be made into a high smile?

Asked By:matter_ in NorCal

Usually when I smile, only about half of my incisors show beneath my lip, though sometimes a little more if I force it (like in this photo). It makes my teeth look shadowed and not stand-out (I like my teeth!) Two things I was hoping to accomplish: 1) Widen smile / narrow buccal corridors 2) Increase visible area of front teeth I understand #1 is possible. But with regards to #2, how would one go about achieving a higher smile by 2-3mm? Do I talk to my ortho or dentist? Is it even possible?
