Weird smile because of braces?

Question

My braces make my lips all weird when I smile, so it looks horrible. And, if I try to smile too big, my chin gets very small (pointy looking) and my cheeks get huge. I'm having pictures done in a few days and I don't know what to do. I want a nice smile, but I keep practicing in the mirror and taking pictures of myself and it just looks horrible. I don't want my smile to look fake, either. I keep trying to think of funny stuff when I smile, but it still looks fake. Any tips?

Smile without showing your braces. :)

Answer 8

NOBODY looks good in braces.  Just keep the goal in mind, that you'll have lovely teeth when the braces come off.

Answer 9

Braces are cute. You will be happy when they finally come off and you see how much prettier your smile is. I know. I know. That doesn't help now. But I had braces, too. I remember having the same problem. You should smile with lips in a cute little kissy smile. That looks cute and the braces don't mess it up!

Answer 10

You think it looks horrible because you are starting and analyzing so much. Honestly nobody will really notice much. Just smile the way your did when you werent wearing braces. Its all in your head.

Answer 11

I just got braces too. Just try to make a smile that works for you. If you dont want to show your teeth thats fine just find something that works for you
