My teeth are very large, and somewhat pushed forward. I had braces all through middle school and then had my wisdom teeth taken out after I graduated high school. Regardless of my small jet, I do have very large teeth. On top of that I have a very small upper lip that completely disappears when I smile. I have a very hard time wrapping my mouth around cups and glasses and usually have to use a straw to drink to avoid spilling and slurping. Lip injections? Teeth filing?? Better suggestions?
