The latest beauty trend to take over TikTok is the teeth talker trend, where people try to find out if they’re “top or bottom teeth talkers”.
What is the top or bottom teeth talker trend on TikTok?
This bizarre trend sees people lipsync along to the song Hide Away by Daya to figure out whether they’re top-teeth talkers or bottom-teeth talkers. This basically means whether it’s your top row of teeth or your bottom row of teeth that show when you talk.
However, users are convinced that talking with your upper teethmakes you appear youngeras it’s seen as a sign of youthfulness, according to face yoga instructor Jennifer Joy. As people get older and their skin starts to get looser, people tend to talk more naturally with their lower teeth
Thousands of people have taken part in the trend and have mixed responses about what results they get.
TikTokerMax Baledge, who has 3.5 million followers on the app, was one of the many people who took part in the trend, and as he realized he was a bottom-teeth talker, he wrote: “I was convinced I was going to be a top teeth speaker, I’m mortified.”
Max’s video has been viewed over 26.2 million times, and thousands of people have gathered in the comments to either complain about the kind of teeth they have or just express their confusion about the trend.
One person said, “This was my exact reaction to myself last night when I tried it,” while a second person remarked, “Idk If I’m a top teeth talker or if I just haveAmerican girl doll teeth.”
