I have a lot of tooth show - bullhorn or V-Y?

Question

I've asked a similar question before but hopefully these photos are better. I have a lot of tooth show already so im not sure if a bullhorn would work. What about a V-Y lift?

Jonathan Cabin, MD · Answer

Hi Jessie, Thanks for sharing your question and photo. In similar situations I've handled - patients with greater than 2mm tooth show - I did not use a traditional (bullhorn) lip lift, as it would have most certainly led to exaggerated tooth show. Whether or not you're a candidate for a V-Y advancement or other surgical/non-surgical volumization depends on your aesthetic goals, which you didn't specify. It would also require different photographic views, along with a history and physical examination. Hope this helps and best of luck! - Dr. Cabin
