Il sorriso è un'espressione facciale formata principalmente dalla flessione dei muscoli ai lati della bocca. Alcuni sorrisi includono una contrazione dei muscoli all'angolo degli occhi, un'azione nota come sorriso di Duchenne. Tra gli esseri umani, un sorriso esprime socievolezza, felicità, gioia o divertimento. È distinto da un'espressione di ansia simile ma solitamente involontaria nota come smorfia. Sebbene studi interculturali abbiano dimostrato che il sorriso è un mezzo di comunicazione in tutto il mondo, ci sono grandi differenze tra culture, religioni e società diverse, con alcuni che usano i sorrisi per trasmettere confusione o imbarazzo.
