For trope purposes, this includes fangs, tusks, [[MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily and an entire jaw of purposely sharpened teeth]]. CuteLittleFangs is usually the GoodCounterpart to this trope, but the two can overlap if the writer is trying to invoke CuteIsEvil. May be paired with HornedHumanoid for a demonic look. Related to ScaryTeeth. May also involve {{Phlegmings}}.
