my life cant get any more exciting. first was root canal, then wisdom tooth extraction and now, im finally fit to sit in front of my laptop after lying in bed for the past 3 days recovering from what it seems to be a stomach flu =/ booooo! shall not elaborate the details. not too pleasant to hear =/ but thanks bf for being there, physically and mentally =) *hugs

anyway, as i was slping through the past 3 days, i had many many many many dreams. of which, was this reallly scary dream about having all my teeth falling out one by one =X AND ITS NOT THE FIRST TIME I HAD THIS DREAM. ITS LIKE I'VE BEEN DREAMING THIS SAME OLD DREAM FOR MANY TIMES. i wondered what it means to dream of falling teeth....and so i consulted my best buddy - google.

The typical dream scenarios include having your teeth crumble in your hands, fall out one by one with just a light tap (YESYES!! I DREAMT OF THIS!), grow crooked or start to rot. Such dreams are not only horrifying and shocking, but they often leave you with a lasting image of the dream. So what does it mean?

One theory is that dreams about your teeth reflect your anxieties about your appearance and how others perceive you. Your teeth help to convey an image of attractiveness and play an important role in the game of flirtation, whether it is flashing those pearly white, kissing or necking. Thus, such dreams may stem from a fear of rejection, sexual impotence or the consequences of getting old (!!!!!!!). To support this notion, a dream research found that women in menopause report to have frequent dreams about teeth. This points to teeth dreams as being related to getting older and/or feeling unattractive and less feminine. Teeth are an important feature to your attractiveness and how you are presented to others. Caring about how you look is natural and healthy.

Another rationalization for these falling teeth dreams may be rooted in your fear of being embarrassed or making a fool of yourself in some situation. These dreams are an over-exaggeration of your worries and anxieties. Perhaps you feel that you are unprepared for the task at hand. However, you will find that your worries are unfounded in most cases. Sometimes what plays out in your mind is far worse than what is reality.

Teeth are used to bite, tear, chew and gnaw. In this regard, teeth symbolize power. And the loss of teeth in your dream may be from a sense of powerlessness. Are you lacking power in some current situation? Perhaps you are having difficulties expressing yourself or getting your point across. You feel frustrated when your voice is not being heard. You may be experiencing feelings of inferiority and a lack of self-confidence in some situation or relationship in your life. This dream may be an indication that you need to be more assertive and believe in the importance of what you have to say.
