Common "Awkward Smile" queries answered by top doctors | iCliniq

Awkward Smile

Facial dissymmetry, teeth problems like discoloration, misalignment, missing teeth, chipped teeth, and a cleft lip can make a person's smile awkward. Cosmetic dentistry involving bonding, teeth whitening, veneers, fillings, bridges, and implants effectively manages tooth-related problems and enhances one's smile. In addition, maxillary surgical procedures such as LeFort 1 may fix face deformities. Laser therapy is used for lip irregularities, while botox and fillers may provide better outcomes for some gummy smiles.
