Follow-up question: Do you advise lip lift or jaw correction to help show my teeth? (Photos)

February 10, 2020
Asked By:Sarjul in San Diego, CA

I love my teeth but I hate that they don’t show when I talk, smile or laugh. I went to an orthodontist, I am not a candidate for braces or veneers due to the root of my teeth being so short. Ortho recommended Botox around my lips but I was told that would not help show my teeth. The other option was jaw surgery to lower my jaw but was told that would not be recommended. I have updated this question due to doctors asking if I have had fillers. I have never had filler or Botox or any other procedure done.
