How can I make my nose stay in place and not widen so much when I smile? And how can I show more teeth? (photos)

Question

When I smile i feel my muscles in my whole face is tightning. My smile doesnt feel natural. Why is this? My nose expand alot and I Dont know why ? When some people smile it just stays in place without little expansion. Also when I smile i only show half of my teeth I want to show much more. What can I do to get a natural beautiful smile With alot of upper teeth showing and not so muscle activation in my face.

You are suffering from an underdeveloped maxilla and the subsuquent consequences.

Three dimensional expansion with the DNA Appliance and Epigenetic expansion are the best initial approach.  Patience is key as this requires 14-16 hours of wear for approximatelt 2 years.  This results in both cosmetic and physiologic improvements.

May also help with appearance under the eyes and airway.

Leads to naturally beautiful smile but may require orthodontic finalization.

although more clinical studies are needed, a combination of botox and hyaluronic acid could improve your facial expression.
