There you are. Some of us always knew there was more to Snape than that 
greasy-haired, hook-nosed, oily-skinned, yellow-toothed, mean, ugly err.... 
what's the current phrase? Oh, I can't remember.....one of those Americanisms 
beginning sch...

Obviously, he's really an Adonis with manners to match and his current 
demeanor and temperament are just an elaborate ruse so that no-one knows who 
he really is. And that's how he got involved in all those complicated love 
triangles and fell out with James over Lily (because Lily knew his identity 
and knew what he was *really* like) and he's really hacked off that having 
been the most popular boy in the school, now everybody loves to hate him.

So when he says of Hermione's teeth, 'I see no difference', it's another cri 
de coeur. He knows that beauty is only skin deep.
