My lips are always open, I find it really difficult to keep My lips closed, I have a receding chin, Overbite, gummy smile, cross bite, high pallet and a short philtrum, I cant afford jaw surgery to fix my gummy smile and overbite etc so i am thinking of getting lip implants big enough to cover my teeth when my mouth is relaxed, Will this work? Im so self conscious and i hate smiling i look like a horse, Please help :(
