A pointed tooth, especially one of the four conical teeth between the incisors and molars (canine tooth).
From Latin 'cuspis' meaning point or spike, with the suffix '-id' (meaning resembling or characteristic of). Named for their characteristic pointed shape.
Your cuspid teeth are called 'canine' teeth in English, but 'cuspid' is the precise dental term. Vampires are always depicted with pronounced cuspids—but human cuspids aren't actually that sharp compared to other animals.
