Teeth in a dream
Teeth in a dream are read as worry, change and growing up, not as a bad omen for you or your loved ones.
Dreams about teeth are among the most common and unsettle many people, but the gentler folk reading ties them to change and maturing – as when a child's baby tooth falls out so a new one can grow. They are believed to speak of concern about how others see you, or of a decision that is gnawing at you. Beautiful white teeth are read as strength and self-confidence. Take it as a sign that you are outgrowing something.
The most common dreams
Dreaming of your teeth falling out
People read this gently, as the end of one phase and the start of a new one. It is believed you are leaving behind a worry you no longer need.
Dreaming of a loose tooth
In folk belief, you are wavering over some decision. The dream reminds you that it is fine to take a little more time before you make the cut.
Dreaming of beautiful white teeth
It is considered a lovely sign of strength, cheerfulness and good spirits. It is said you will soon be laughing a great deal.
Dreaming of a new tooth growing
This is read as new strength and a fresh start. Old dream books see in it a new arrival, a new skill or a new job.
These interpretations come from folk tradition and are meant for fun; they do not predict the future and are not advice for life decisions.
