The act of sucking air in through ones teeth, or 'kissing' one's teeth to show either, disdain, disappointment, disgust, disagreement or disapproval = struups. Favoured by many Caribbeans.
(It can also just be said. 'str-uups'.)
''Clive let it be known that he wasn't impressed by the increased cost of his air fare..'' *struups*
''Wait, you ate *all* the dinner?'' *struups*

The act of kissing teeth kmt means to express disapproval contempt, or dissatisfaction with a situation or person by making a sound through the act of sucking air through one's teeth.
Oft performed by people from the Caribbean.
I got to the cricket ground late. When I asked the man next to me what the score was, he spent the next 10 seconds kissing teeth at me!
