Two weeks ago I had a frenectomy on my lower lip; I also had a gum graft on my two front lower teeth. In the beginning of my recovery it was extremely hard to talk/smile/laugh - it hurt really badly to do all of the above. Now two weeks later, I can do all of those things with no pain....but I've noticed something different about my smile. My natural smile does not look the same as it used to - my top teeth barely show at all - it looks like I'm smiling purposefully without my teeth. When I used to smile naturally, all of my top teeth showed and a little tiny bit of my bottom teeth. I'm pretty positive I'm just freaking myself out and hoping that my mouth just needs to be stretched out since I went about a week without really moving it after surgery. However, I'm wondering if anyone has had a lower frenectomy/gum graft with the same after effects...and what your outcome was? I'm terrified that I'm not going to get my smile back!! :/ Thanks!!
