I have read that if you open your mouth just a tiny tiny bit, your teeth should still be able to show, same with when you talk, if they don't, whats the cause and fix for that?

So what? People with recessed maxilla have gummy smile and their gums show when speaking. He's talking about the opposite.

Vertically short maxilla and/or long philtrum.

That's because you have short underdeveloped maxilla.
Just google short face syndrome
Lf is the only way to fix it

Wouldnt that be the case if when I smile my teeth dont show? My teeth show when I smile
 
i got really long philtrum
The good news is that a lip lift is a relatively cheap and easy procedure that will both reduce the philtrum and increase the tooth show. If you would have had normal philtrum but short maxilla that would require a much more invasive treatment.

My philtrum is like 21cm no troll and I got a thin upper lip. But yeah, as I was saying earlier, wouldn't short maxilla also mean that when I smile my teeth wouldn't show? My teeth show when I smile, it's just when I open my mouth a little they dont show, and when I talk you can only see like a little of my two front teeth.

is short really the best term for this? the maxilla seems not developed and not forward grown rather than not long enough
 
Go to an ortho if you really want to know. There can be 100 causes for this. Overbite is one of them
 
you need a lip lift

I'm saying that your maxilla isn't necessarily short if you have an overly long philtrum covering your teeth. A thin upper lip would also improve with a lip lift. But there is no way for me to diagnose you.

There's a lot of people, even among Hollywood actors, that have flat faces but their smile is perfect/ok

My philtrum is like 21cm
That's definitely to much
Given that you still have your teeth showing when smiling, even with this long philtrum, I don't think your maxilla is an issue here.

Ahh I get you. Is 20-21 cm considered overly long? I am definitely getting a lip lift though, like it seems to have so many benefits for me specifically then. Bigger upper lip + shorter philtrum, better midface ratio and more teeth show. Seems like a nobrainer if thats the case.
 
Yes, depends on skull size etc but 20-21 mm is on the longer side. I was the same before my lip lift.
 
Short teeth?
 
I also had that.
I fixed that with double jaw surgery. To fix it they are going to do a posterior maxillary impaction during the jaw surgery
there is no other way to fix that
 
JFL at thinking shit like this actually matters.

You got before and after pictures of your smile?

How much more tooth show did you get after doing a lip lift?

its because your maxilla. I have the same problem. Teeth are not showing when I slightly open my mouth. This is due to the fact that your upper lip doesnt have enough support and it just falls like a curtain. A solution for this is to go with Le fort, your surgeon will go forward and down with your maxilla and than its going to use a bone graft to fix your teeth. It means also that you have a short face.
