crooked lipss.

I had braces for five years and before then I've always had straight lips. But ever since i have gotten braces, my lips are crooked; my right side is higher up then my left side. I like that i have a straight smile, but i feel weird smiling because of my crooked lips.
maybe you can help.
thank you.

I had braces for an extremely long time as well - two time actually. Once when I was a teen for 4 years, then in my early 20's for 2 years because I didn't wear my retainer and my teeth shifted.
I think the same thing happened to me with the crooked lip. My mom called it the Elvis lip (lol). I don't know why it happens, but it eventually went away. Yours probably will too. Keep smiling - it will strengthen your lips and get them even again.
