Mine are a bit longer than my other teeth, and they are/were very sharp and pointy. Left ones are still long and sharp but the right ones have worn down more. The top ones stick out a little bit, more so on the left side than the right.

My teeth as a whole are warped, and I definitely have this one. Had a dentist tell me once "Your canines are much bigger than they should be and are completely shaped like fangs".

Adding to the effect is that my OTHER teeth are also warped. If I were to smile at you, it'd look like I actually have more than one set of the large canines. Even my front molars are very warped and not at all shaped like molars, they come up sharply and end in a single huge point. Only my back molars dont look like this.

This is why I never do a "full" smile at anyone. The way I like to put it is: "It'd be like being smiled at by a vampire with too many fangs who has never heard of dentistry."

I'm no dog, but I have them. My dentist says that they are fragments of baby teeth that never fell out.

Yay, I'm not alone in this :D People keep making fun of me for my teeth for being that exact way. They say I look like a hound.
