You have a lower lip trap.. It means there is lot of horizontal gap between your upper and lower teeth. Consult a qualified orthodontist for proper consultation, treatment planning and execution of treatment.

Get a proper dental evaluation done. Braces would probably be the way to go however there may be other solutions too depending on the cause of the problem.
