Nightmare
For some reason I put a length of chain in my mouth to clean it, but I forget that it is not food so I bite down on it firmly. This causes a tooth to come out. I rush to apply pressure with paper towels, which stops what little bleeding there was, but my mouth is filled with an acidic taste. I save the tooth, which has a hollow outer segment and a thin root, planning to immediately go to the dentist when they open. Then another tooth comes out. And another. I look in the mirror and the whole back of my left upper gums is starting to degrade and come off. The rest of the gums that remain look red and swollen. then I start spitting out broken shell shards. The dream ends about there.
The really convincing part of the dream, the part that made me think it was real, was that I tried to wake up just after the first tooth came out but I couldn't. It freaked me out though; I woke up breathing very rapidly.
