Tricks for feeling good about a “toothy” smile?

mentor13 · 2026-03-28T06:36:22Z

I’ve always had a pretty gummy smile (like, my gums show a lot when I laugh or even just smile normally), and honestly it’s made me super self-conscious, especially in photos. I know there are procedures out there, but I’m not sure I want to go down that road yet. Has anyone found little tricks or habits that helped boost confidence or make you care less? Maybe makeup tips, photo angles, or just mindset stuff? Would love to hear what’s worked for other people.

—ugh, that’s the worst part, right? I’ve tried those strips too, but they always slide around and taste weird. The pens are way less messy, but I’m with you—nothing beats just brushing and flossing regularly. I swear half my “bad smile” days are just in my head anyway. Ever notice how a little lip balm or just smiling more confidently makes a bigger difference than any whitening product?
