Buck teeth were the dental stereotype common to most people of East Asian descent in the early-to-mid 20th century. Whereas the Western world associates this trope with ALL Eastern Asians in racist caricatures, in Asia itself, the bad teeth stereotype is associated with Japanese people, and either used to villainize them or Played for Laughs in Korean and Southeast Asian comedy. Japan has lax standards on dental beauty and orthodontics is still a relatively recent thing. Crooked teeth are actually viewed as a positive trait in Japan; wealthy women sometimes pay to have their teeth reshaped unevenly because a crooked smile makes them look more childlike and thus "cuter." Historically in Japan, white teeth were generally seen as unattractive, and women concerned about their physical attractiveness would artificially blacken their teeth as part of their makeup. Much American anti-Japanese World War II propaganda picked on Japanese people's poor dental health, this stereotype eventually evolved into the Asian Buck-Teeth trope, which now instead of only targeting Japanese people conflates all Eastern Asian people into one monolithic bloc. World War II depictions of the Japanese, however, typically involved giant upper front teeth and sometimes fangs. The primary inspiration for this trope was Hideki Tojo, the de facto leader of Imperial Japan during WWII, who had a pronounced overbite. This is often a component of Yellowface. Both teeth stereotypes are Discredited Tropes nowadays. Subtrope of Facial Profiling. Compare British Teeth and Goofy Buckteeth. |

Possible contributing factor to the racewank early in Homestuck fandom; John and Jade have buck teeth and are sometimes portrayed as Asian in fanworks. The art style is such that it's impossible to tell what, if any, race they were intended to be and since they were effectively cloned from nothing instead of being born, nothing says they actually have to fit into any recognizable racial category. The wank seems to have mostly died out by now, though. | |

At the end of Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, an "extremely accurate" police sketch is shown of the duo; the drawing of Harold shows him with squinty eyes, a Fu Manchu mustache and beard, buck teeth, and wearing a conical straw hat (meanwhile, the drawing of Kumar shows him with thick lips and wearing a turban). | |

Dan's cousin Chin-Kee from American Born Chinese looks like a bad Chinese stereotype, complete with buck teeth. He is drawn with this trait as part of his "embodiment of every negative Chinese stereotype ever." As part of his ongoing ruination of every relationship in Danny's life, the other kids start to think Danny's got buck teeth too. Turns out the reason he's so goofy-looking is that he's actually a badly made human disguise worn by Sun Wu Kong, the Monkey King. | |

In New Super-Man #16, Kenan has a vision of the past and finds himself in a 1940s Chinatown as it would have been portrayed in the comics of the day. He initially thinks the bald, bright yellow, buck-toothed people being beaten up by Slam Bradley are some kind of goblin until All-Yang tells him to use his x-ray vision to see through "the illusion generated by a century of brutality", at which point they look like ordinary Chinese people. | |

All Asians in Mortadelo y Filemón, even in the latest releases. A non-Asian example is Prof. Bacterio. There is an episode in which Mortadelo burns up Bacterio's beard, revealing that he has enormous, very prominent buck teeth - which leads us to think that Bacterio actually grows his beard in order to hide them. |

Minoriteam, a short-lived [adult swim] show notorious for its premise revolving around a superhero team composed of racial stereotypes, had the leader of the titular team being a Genius Cripple and offensively stereotypical Chinese man named Dr. Wang, who spoofed Professor X of the X-Men, personified the stereotype of Asians being highly intelligent and had noticeable buck teeth. It's particularly jarring because he's the one member of the team to not have a less stereotypical civilian identity. | |

Tintin: From the very first Tintin, the two Chinese torturers have teeth like this. Mitsuhirato, a villainous Japanese businessman in China, is drawn with stereotypically buck teeth, notable in a comic that was very progressive for its time in terms of racial attitudes (well, not counting the first book). Understandable in that at the time the character was written, Japan was currently engaged in a very brutal occupation of China, and Hergé made his views abundantly clear. A much more sympathetic Japanese policeman, Bunji Kuraki, does appear in "The Crab With The Golden Claws", however, who is drawn normally. |

The second issue of the 1966 Plastic Man series had Plastic Man's archenemy Dr. Dome attempt to learn Plastic Man's origins so he can go back in time and prevent Plastic Man from getting his powers, doing so by having his daughter Lynx split into three people and interview Plastic Man's best friend Gordon K. Trueblood, Mrs. DeLute (the mother of Plastic Man's girlfriend Micheline) and policeman Captain McSniffe. The three each give a contradictory origin where the only elements in common are Plastic Man obtaining his stretching powers while confronting a supervillain (with the end of the story revealing that none of the origins were true, Plastic Man made the origins up to confuse Dr. Dome and the associates he told the origins were in on the trick). Mrs. DeLute's version of Plastic Man's origin story goes with Plas being a Romani fiddler who got exposed to milk and acid at the same time while chasing a criminal called the Japanese Beetle across a train. The Japanese Beetle demonstrated just about every racist stereotype of Asians, including yellow skin, squinty eyes, getting Ls and Rs mixed up and prominent front teeth. | |

Downplayed with the Chang triplets in The Proud Family. They are typically designed with fairly normal mouths, but in several instances when they open their mouths, their most commonly shown teeth are two upper incisors, giving off the impression of this trope. By Louder and Prouder, this along with any stereotypical characteristics they previously had were removed. | |

Since the Pussycats' whole adventure began with this scenario, the troupe flees the hotel, with Alexandra following behind.

Fire Emblem: Awakening puts a fantastic spin on this, with Panne the Taguel (aka person with rabbit features that can turn into a literal Killer Rabbit) mentioning that humans seem more comfortable around her when she pretends to have buck teeth. Note that Panne seems to hail from the world's Europe analogue, though, rather than its Asia analogue. Her Kid from the Future, Yarne, can complain that he's tried pretending to have buck teeth, but nobody liked it. | |

The Family Guy episode "Road to the Multiverse" makes Quagmire in the universe where Japan won World War II and occupied the U.S. fall into this trope. Peter sports buck teeth while wearing a Chinaman disguise in "Peter's Daughter" One cutaway gag shows a stereotypically Asian version of the Trix Rabbit, complete with slanted eyes and buck teeth (which the Trix Rabbit ordinarily lacks in spite of being an anthropomorphic rabbit), kicking children and snapping their necks in retaliation to their refusal to let him have Trix cereal. Another cutaway gag has Peter as a police sketch artist being given the description of an Asian-American assault suspect, ultimately drawing a crude stereotypical face that has these alongside slanted eyes and a straw hat. Later, Chris is attacked and robbed by a man whose head looks exactly like Peter's sketch. |
