You are asking this Q probably because your front two teeth are proclined (forward).
Whatever it may be but shortening definitely is not the way out. Go for braces for correction.

It would not be possible to give a rational looking without a look at the clinical condition of the teeth but as a General suggestion, we would prefer to avoid Trimming of the teeth.
The Other treatment options which can improve your smile can be explained to you after the case evaluation only and the cost will also vary according to the treatment.
