I can relate to what you mention in your article. As an adolescent, I needed braces but my parents could not afford the cost of braces. Being very self conscious of my dental issues, I limited my smile to a closed lipped one. I did not get braces until I was in my late 30s.
Subsequently, after the braces were removed, I smiled without restraint.

Hello Isherwood,
