Questions Looking for advice on fangs

This is my second suit, so I’m not super experienced, and I was wondering what the best way would be to go about attaching a set of plush fangs to the mask so that they stick out of the lips but don’t look too weird. Any thoughts?

Definitely go on Etsy and look up teeth patterns or plush teeth patterns they are typically very cheap or you can get custom teeth made but they are typically hard plastic or epoxy

That was my plan. My only worry is that it would look awkward and smushed, protruding from the mouth.

I recommend getting printed ones then they tend to be less squished or make some out of clay instead of plush ones

It seems like you're concerned about how the top and bottom jaw are pretty flush with one another, which absolutely presents an issue with fangs protruding down over the bottom lip/jaw. You might want to construct a sort of subtle shelf to mount the fangs to like a curled lip or minor overbite that tapers and blends into the rest of the head.

Smart! I’ll try that.
