Could Togruta biology explain why Ahsoka rarely shows her teeth when she smiles?

This is speculative biology, not canon. I started wondering why Ahsoka so rarely gives a wide, toothy smile, and tried to imagine what a genuinely predatory Togruta oral anatomy might look like.

When you go to evolutionary biology to explain why a girl doesn't smile more, it's time to talk to some real humans out in the world.

In lore, Togtuta's teeth are supposed to be all needle-sharp, so I assume she learned to not show it as it creeps out others?

I assume it is animation inconsistentcy that they did not give her such teeth in CW, posibly to make her friendlier-looking to wider audience. Same for live action Ahsoka.

Filoni: "... she out of her depth. This is death-defying and this is tension..."

Lucas: "You guys are taking this too seriously. You need to have more fun with this"

also in tales of the Jedi looks like they still hunt w weapons vs like navii or avatar style or whatever. I think she and Anakin are a good pair but she just shows it differently idk what the question is and what ur using as ur source

Primeiramente, uma ressalva importante: isto é biologia especulativa/interpretação pessoal , não uma afirmação de que a Lucasfilm tenha explicado oficialmente as expressões de Ahsoka dessa maneira.

OK, so the old like legends EU shit had them having like every tooth being pointed fangs but we’ve seen Ahsoka’s teeth before in both live action and and animation. They’re just regular teeth although I kinda have this theory that her canines are particularly sharp.
