I had a really disturbing dream last night. I dreamed that certain teeth were just like, falling out. I didn't know what to do it was freakin' me out, so I'd just try to put my tooth back in place before it'd fall out. Haha. Yeah, messed up. I think there was more to it, but that's seriously all I could remember. Also, last night I woke up wide awake at 3 am. Zack was up too so we ended up staying up and watching tv til like 5:30. It kinda made us wonder if something happened somewhere in the world. Or my dream was so disturbing it even woke him up. I think I'm going to go brush and floss my teeth now...
edit: I just had to add what my dream dictionary said about it.
Teeth/Loss of Teeth: Vitality, relatives, friends, and lovers; but this image also has a predatory and destructive side. See Vampire.
As far back as Greek mythology, teeth were said to refer to children. The reason probably was that, during pregnancy, mothers experienced the rapid loss of their teeth ("Each child will cost you a tooth").
In mythology teeth are considered simlar to seed corn, comparable to dragon's blood. In addition, teeth symbolize the oral qualities of the dreamer. The possible reason for this might be an eating and biting urge, or the repression of it. And, last but not least, teeth, like Mouth, are used to take in food. See Beauty, Face, Bones Bite.
According to Jung and Freud, teeth are often a phallic symbol; according to Freud, dreams about toothaches are considered masturbation dreams.
According to the newest dream research, women often dream about teeth during menopause.
