The upper lip is too short. What should I do if I smile and show my gums?
Gum plastic surgery:

Tooth deformity 1. Orthodontics can generally be used to correct it, and it can be treated in stomatological hospitals or clinics, but it only takes 6 months to 1 year; Some people pull out or grind out protruding teeth for convenience, and then install porcelain teeth. This method is not desirable, because even the best dentures are not as good as their own teeth.

2 pairs of maxillary protrusion. Orthognathic surgery is usually used to withdraw the protruding maxilla to its normal position. This kind of operation must be carried out through accurate measurement and special surgical instruments, which has great trauma, long recovery time, certain risks and high requirements for doctors and hospitals. But orthognathic surgery has the power to turn decay into magic, which can greatly change the appearance of patients.

3 pairs of patients with short upper lip. The height of the upper lip can be increased by surgery (the height of the lip refers to the height of the skin of the lip, excluding the red lip), which is introduced as follows: the extraoral method, which uses bilateral alar triangular flaps to increase the height of the upper lip, can immediately increase the height of the long lip, but there is a scar on the bottom of the upper lip nose.

Intraoral method: make an incision in the vestibular sulcus of the maxilla, find out the labial quadratus muscle on both sides, cut off this muscle, appropriately extend the mucosal tissue in the frenum, and relax the upper lip; This method can not increase the height of upper lip in the near future, and it must be effective through long-term lip function exercise of patients.

I suggest you go to a plastic surgery hospital for a check-up to see if plastic surgery is necessary.
