Snaggle-toothed

Snaggle-toothed: This is an adjective describing crooked and/or broken teeth. Snaggle doesn't seem to appear by itself, and most often is used in the phrase snaggle-toothed grin, often implying lower-class, poor origins.
The bag man's lips parted into a snaggle-toothed grin, and he stepped out into traffic, heading straight for Byron's car.
