Upper lip protrusion is usually caused by malpositioned teeth, maxillary protrusion, shortening of the upper lip, etc. It can be improved by orthodontic treatment, orthognathic surgery and lip muscle training.
1. Malpositioned teeth: If your upper lip is caused by malocclusion or malpositioned teeth, you can go to a regular hospital for orthodontic treatment to restore the normal occlusal relationship of your teeth and improve the protrusion of your upper lip.
2. Maxillary protrusion: If the protruding upper lip is caused by maxillary protrusion, orthognathic surgery can be carried out to establish a good relationship between teeth and jaws and improve the protruding upper lip.
3. Upper Lip Shortening: Shortening of the upper lip will cause the lip to stick out in front of the mouth, resulting in a protruding upper lip. Functional treatments can be carried out in childhood, such as lip muscle training, learning the cave pipe, flute and other musical instruments to train the upper lip, to improve the protruding upper lip, and surgery can be carried out if necessary.
If you have a protruding upper lip, it is recommended that you go to a regular hospital and follow the doctor’s instructions to improve the relevant examinations and correct treatment.
