* WesternAnimation/TheBatman:
** ComicBook/TheJoker, as mentioned above, has a gaping mouthful of bright yellow teeth with jigsaw-like protrusions and holes, causing them to slot together in a highly unnatural fashion.
** The same series also gives these to Oswald Cobblepot, the Penguin, with a frankly shark-like array of jagged, pointed fangs.
* Kuki Sanban (Numbuh 3) of ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor'' sometimes slips into this when she gets into her more vicious moods.

* On ''WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory'' and ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'', some characters will briefly have sharp teeth if they're really angry or malicious.
* On one of the ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddParents'' [[WesternAnimation/OhYeahCartoons pilots]], Cosmo and Wanda lose control of their magic and accidentally give Tootie bear trap teeth... right as she got Timmy at SpinTheBottle.



* In ''WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse2021'', Trap Jaw has a metal mouth and ''throat'' full of sharp metal fangs. The teeth all rotate like an industrial shredder, which Trap Jaw uses in his "Mecha Maw" ability to [[VacuumMouth suck up raw materials]] then convert them into new weapons.

** When the MouthOfSauron appears in ''[[Film/TheLordOfTheRingsTheReturnOfTheKing The Return of the King]]'', his helmet covers up every part of his face except for his mouth, which often grins with elongated, pointy teeth covered in black ichor. Eugh. Special effects trickery was used to enlarge the actor's mouth to make it look [[UncannyValley even more freaky and uncanny]]. It is strongly implied that the reason the Mouth's teeth are so horrible is because hundreds of years of repeating [[BlackSpeech Sauron's evil words]] was enough to rot his mouth and teeth.

* Frederica and Garfiel from ''LightNovel/ReZero'' have such teeth. Subaru once noted that Frederica would probably be a really pretty woman if she didn't have teeth like that. Both have such teeth because they are hybrids of humans and [[LittleBitBeastly beastmen]]. Despite the creepy teeth, both are good guys, even if Garfiel isn't always the nicest.


Added DiffLines:

* [[FishPeople Hydrites]] from ''Literature/{{Maddrax}}'' also have creepy fangs. But they are essentially a peaceful and good-natured species. However, sometimes a person is frightened when a hydrite smiles at him and shows him its fangs in the process.
** There is also a species of [[OurVampiresAreDifferent mutant vampire]]. They actually have ordinary teeth, but they file them to look like fangs so that they can bite their victims more effectively to get at their blood. Although there are some good people among them, these vampire mutants, unlike the hydrites, are a real threat to humans.

Added DiffLines:

* One aspect of the unique look of ''Creator/DonBluth'''s animated films is how the characters' mouths and teeth are designed: while pretty much all of Don Bluth's characters have very expressive mouths and lips, the "good" characters tend to have smaller, less visible teeth while the more villainous characters' teeth are far larger, sharper, and more animated to give them a more "predatory" look. Most Don Bluth villains, such as [[WesternAnimation/ThePebbleAndThePenguin Drake]], [[WesternAnimation/AllDogsGoToHeaven Carface]], or [[WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfNIMH Jenner]], wear big, toothy grins most of the time and tend to snap their jaws as they speak.

* Sharks are the living version of this trope.

to:

* Sharks are the living version of this trope. Certain species can have hundreds of teeth in their mouth at once. Sharks regularly lose their teeth, but they are constantly regrowing and replacing their teeth, so they never run out. A single shark can produce many thousands of teeth over its lifetime.

** The villain Moonfish really takes the cake as this is his Quirk. Specifically it's known as "Blade-Tooth" and lets him grow and control his teeth, with his preferred usage making LONG branching sharp fangs to stab people and move around with them. Combined with him being a AxCrazy death row inmate who may be a IAmAHumanitarian, and you got some very scary teeth.

* The book ''In A Dark, Dark Room'', by Alvin Schwartz of ''Literature/ScaryStoriesToTellInTheDark'' fame, features a retelling of a classic horror story simply titled "The Teeth." In the tale, a young boy asks a stranger for the time; the stranger then smiles to reveal a mouth full of teeth three inches long (for comparison, the average human tooth is a little more than half-an-inch long). The boy runs for it, only to encounter other strangers who, in a case of SerialEscalation, show longer and ''longer'' teeth (to the point where the [[RuleOfThree third man's]] teeth are about an entire foot in length). Other versions of this story have the tale be AllJustADream...[[OrWasItADream until]] the boy calls for his parents and tells them about it, at which point they laugh and ask "Were they ''this'' long?", revealing even larger sets of choppers.
