I keep having dreams about losing my teeth?

I have this dream atleast once or twice a week..... does anyone know what this could mean?

 

I always heard that dream associated with having a lack of sex.

 

i've never heard that it's from a lack of sex. i too have this dream sort of often (it comes in spurts), so i've researched it. apparently it can mean one of two things:

1) you are stressed about a big change that is coming up in your life. this seems to fit with my experience as i've had the dream when i was about to graduate, when i was starting a new graduate program, etc.

2) you are worried about losing your beauty (since nice teeth are a symbol for beauty)

 

yeah me too

 

I get dreams where a tooth falls out , I dont know what it means either . desert rat

 

Could it mean that I`m worried about my lack of beauty? I`ve been feeling a bit self-conscious lately.

 

You grind your teeth when you sleep?

 

You're okay as long as you don't have the dream about going to work or school naked . With or without teeth .

 

Dreams about falling teeth could reflect anxieties you may have about your appearance and how others perceive you. It could also be rooted to a fear of being embarrassed or making a fool out of yourself in a some situation.

Basically these dreams are an over-exaggeration of your worries and anxieties. As far as I know teeth (falling out or not) dreams are extremely common.

 

I've had many dreams involving me losing a tooth too.

 

^^mine are way worse than just losing a tooth. it might start off with me noticing that one tooth is loose, but it QUICKLY becomes all of my teeth falling out and/or crumbling so easily, with blood filling my mouth

 

Oh my gosh. Me too. :x

 

I've had these before, sucks but it usually if not always involves some pain involving my teeth with I wake up...interesting, but damn scary.

 

I think it means that you feel powerless in some way about something.

 

Geez im just happy im not the only one that has this dream lol

 

loosing teeth in a dream means youre getting wiser

 

Wow and I thought I was the only one that had these dreams lol. I tried explaining it to my friends and family but they all just think I'm weird. Just the other night I had one where I didn't have any teeth and I was in a hospital being rushed around and they told me that they are going to have to do surgery on my mouth for my teeth and I started crying and trying to get away screaming "I don't want to have surgery!" and I woke myself up from screaming (of course it was a weird groaning noise lol) and I was crying in my sleep. I never knew what it meant until I saw this thread lol.

 

This is a very common theme. It means feeling a loss of control, or what someone mentioned above, feeling powerless. It's definitely connected with anxiety/insecurity about something.

 

I have a friend who recently told me she had the same kind of dream, too. You know who you are.

 

i've had that dream also.
