Line 46:
* The alien symbiotes from ''[[Spider-Man]]''. Spidey himself didn't get this effect when he was wearing the black suit, but Venom, Carnage and basically anyone else "wearing" a symbiote is going to develop these.
* In ''The Orc's Treasure,'' by Kevin J Anderson, all Orcs are distinguished by the impossible overabundance of pointy teeth. Many of them have teeth protruding through parts of their lips or cheeks.
* ''[[The Darkness]]''{{context}}
* Phil Foglio is fond of this trope in his artwork .
** In the ''[[Myth Adventures]]'' comics he depicts Aahz this way. Even in the novels, Aahz is described more than once as ''dropping'' his smile when he wants to put people at ease.
Line 55:
** In the same article, example 27, Liefeld makes the opposite, but equally weird mistake: He somehow draws the Red Skull, a villain whose entire motif is that his head ''is a human skull'', with only 17 teeth in the entire mouth, all of them incisors.
* Max of [[Sam and Max]] stands out from other fictional rabbits by way of his pointy teeth.
* Evil Ernie{{context}}
* An unusual example: [[Frank Miller]] in his more recent{{when}} projects such as ''[[Sin City]]'' and ''Holy Terror'' have characters being punched the jaw, resulting in losing copious numbers of teeth. Which evidently grow back almost instantly; if someone gets punched more than once, he'll lose more teeth than he had in his mouth originally.
* The Dominators, a humanoid alien race from [[DC Comics]], are distinguished by an abundance of long, sharp teeth.
 
Line 123:
* [http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/60436 Smile.dog's] [[Slasher Smile|smile]] has this many teeth. And I apologize in advance for the nightmares that [[Schmuck Bait|clicking this link]] here will cause you.

* Manticores. Those things have ''three rows'' of metal teeth. Fortunately they don't exist. [[Paranoia Fuel|What was that sound?]]
* In traditional Eastern European Vampire folklore, vampires tend to have double rows of razor-sharp, strong-as-iron teeth used for chewing through wood, soil, flesh, bone, and organs.
Line 139:
*** In the Orky-centric spin-off ''Gorkamorka'', there are various "tribes" of Orks that have different genetic quirks (usable in game through several fan expansions). One of them is the Bad Moonz, who not only have more teeth than average but also regrow them at an increased rate. As such, they're they richest Orks around and always have the most snazz.
** Chaos' [[Legions of Hell]] just wouldn't be proper daemons if some of them didn't have more teeth than a dentition textbook, usually sticking out at odd and possibly noneuclidean angles.
* ''[[Magic: The Gathering]]'' has an entire creature type of toothy monsters called Atogs. [https://web.archive.org/web/20080103050555/http://ww2.wizards.com/gatherer/CardDetails.aspx?&id=31825 Here's one example].
** [http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=146010 Not that they're the only creatures that qualify.]
* ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]''
