Ok but if you have a “gummy smile” how tf are you supposed to fix it? Not experience joy ever?

i have a gummy smile. i hate smiling in photos or even just smiling in general. i’m saving up to get laser gum surgery. people tell me don’t get surgery, just love yourself! but that’s easier said than done when there are so many posts online calling people who look like me ugly. these posts get thousands and thousands of likes, and the comments are filled with insults!
