Smiling Buck Tooth Emoji

Smiling Buck Tooth Emoji , also known as the Stupid Emoji or Happy and Excited Emoticon , is a vector graphic emoticon and emoji that is smiling with its mouth wide open and its buck teeth showing. The emoji is often sourced from stock image websites like Dreamstime and Shutterstock, among others. In early 2023, memes using the smiling buck tooth emoji surfaced en masse when people associated its face with being "stupid." Thereafter, many memes surfaced that added captions to the emoji portraying stupidity on Twitter / X , Instagram and elsewhere online. Additionally, another buck tooth emoji that wasn't smiling was used in variant memes. The combination of both emojis was made into a buck tooth emoji GIF that was a fading transition between both, paired with captions that most often outlined a negative realization. In 2024, the Smiling Buck Tooth Emoji became a symbol for the Black or Chinese meme because it was X user @VLONEPREDATOR's profile picture.
