Exposed teeth are teeth that are visible when their expression suggests they should be hidden. This also includes teeth that extend from the mouth, or other orifice in such a way that these teeth would always be visible, and this applies for any expression. In other words, the character lacks the structural anatomy necessary to conceal these teeth.

The restrictions for this tag are still being worked out, but images featuring very exaggerated expressions probably are not a great fit for this tag. This tag is more for characters with natural underbite, overbite, have tusks, or lack the skin necessary to conceal the teeth.

This tag may apply to depictions of skulls in general even if they don't count as characters.

Not to be confused with

• Expressions that only show the teeth is not enough to qualify for this tag.
• baring_teeth
• clenched_teeth
• toothy_grin
