horse teeth

Mare's mouth bones

Large, prominent teeth that protrude or are highly visible when someone smiles or speaks.

The phrase is usually unflattering, comparing a person's teeth to the long, rectangular teeth of horses: She's pretty but has horse teeth.

Sometimes describes actual equine dentition: You can estimate a horse's age by examining its horse teeth.
