[|Human|] I can not lift my lips to see my teeth when I smile. Is there anything to be done naturally/surgically to fix this? When i smile my mouth moves out at the sides instead of up to reveal teeth like most peoples do. There seems to be the same amount of space between my upper lip and nose as everyone else. My upper lip isnt paralyzed. I can feel it and there is no pain. I can move it just not up. I had braces on and off from kindergarten to eight grade to correct and under bite. I have officially graduated from orthodontics but still wear a retainer at night. Is my mouth just shaped this way or did my use of braces effect my muscles? I was told by a dentist to ask a neurologist.
[|AI|]  Hello there, thanks for consulting at Chat Doctor.since your telling FRM kindergarten you are wearing braces check if all the muscle r intact and either ways only to a certain extent u can move your up lip, but lower lip can be moved a lot below of muscle attachments...all ways take an opinion from a neurologist since your dentist has only opined about it,that mean he has ten a look at u... hope it helps.
