What's that sound called which we make when we are irritated or disgusted, when we press both our lips together and make a sucking sound, with our teeth closed. It's similar to a kissing sound, but in that the lips move out. While here, the lips spread open like in a smile.

Best Answer

The action is called "sucking your teeth."

I don't believe there is a single-word for that sound specifically, it's just a "sucking sound."

The sucking sound of him sucking his teeth in irritation echoed in the empty room.
