Answer 2

Dreams are lend themselves largely to interpretation and symbolism. They are not necessarily premonitions. Dreams can be the mind's way of dumping unuseful information or they can be attempts for the subconscious to bring things to your attention. Maybe your teeth falling out simply means you have something you need to say, to speak with someone about, but you haven't done it yet. Like you are holding things in when you shouldn't. Dreams can also be ways for your fears to make themselves known..like maybe your spouse is cheating and maybe deep down you know this.

Answer 3

I once read dreams of your teeth falling out are dreams about death, and while every person's dreams have different meanings, I've found that all but one of my dreams where my teeth were falling out were actually nightmares. Your teeth are supposed to be a permanent part of your body. When they would start falling out, I would start to panic because something seemingly permanent was suddenly apparently temporary and I couldn't stop it. I don't know what to tell you about your other dreams.

Answer 4

As a student of psychology, I can tell you that no dream has meaning on its own. For example, a snake can be terrifying to one person or an ideal pet to another person. So, it depends on what the symbols mean to the person having the dream. Psychologists no longer interpret dreams in a generic sense - instead it depends on each individual. Anyone who claims they can interpret that dream without knowing what is going on in your life is mistaken. But in a very general sense, your dreams are typical of someone who is stressed. Stressful or frustrating dreams often represent the stress in your daily life.

Answer 5

the truth is..a lot of the time...dreams that we dream don't make sense....right now anyway....and they generally are symbols for something that is a fear we have or something that is important to us. Like for instance I once dreamed that I got addicted to cigarette's....it freaked me out horribly! Well..then just a couple of days ago I started to listen to music...something I have never done! I don't know why but it has just never bean my thing...so I started listening to it when i was on a road trip because i was really boared....well..I started wanting to listen to it all the time...I was addicted to it in a sense...so yeah. And when you said that you have never had any dreams that came true before don't be so sure....because sometimes our dreams are things of which to come. Like if you have a dream that your drowning...maybe it is symbolizing that you are drowning in say..financial trouble...or your life is overwhelming you...mind you not all dreams mean something....sometimes our dreams are just jumbled thoughts with no real meaning...confusing I know but it's ok...God is in control.

Answer 6

Dreams do have meaning. They are messages from the subconscious mind. A lot depends on the specific details of the dream and what symbols are in it. If you are interested in answers to your dreams, you can try this group:

Answer 7

Shot
To dream that you are shot, represents a form of self-punishment that you may be unconsciously imposing on yourself. You may have done something that you are ashamed of or are not proud of.� If you are shot and come back as a different person, then it indicates that� you to start fresh. You want to wipe the past away and literally become a new person.

Cheating
To dream that you are cheating on your spouse, mate, or significant other, suggests feelings of self-guilt and self-betrayal. You may have compromised� your beliefs or integrity and/or wasting your energy and time on fruitless endeavors.�� Alternatively, it� reflects the intensity of your sexual passion and exploring areas of your sexuality. It is a reaffirmation of your commitment.

To dream that your mate, spouse, or significant other is cheating on you, indicates your fears of being abandoned. You may feel a lack of attention in the relationship. Alternatively, you may feel that you are not measuring up to the expectations of others. This notion may stem from issues of trust or self-esteem.

Dreams that your teeth are falling out are the most common dreams we here at Dream Moods receive. Common dream scenarios include having your teeth crumbling in your hands or your teeth falling out one by one with just a light tap.�Such dreams are not only horrifying and shocking, but often leaves the dreamer with a lasting image of the dream. So what does it mean?

One theory is that dreams about your teeth reflect your anxiety about your appearance and how others perceive you. Sadly, we live in a world where good looks are valued highly and your teeth play an important role in conveying that image. Teeth are used in the game of flirtations, whether it be a dazzling and gleaming smile or affectionate necking. These dreams may stem from a fear of your sexual impotence or the consequences of getting old. Teeth are an important feature of our attractiveness and presentation to others. Everybody worries about how they appear to others. Caring about our appearance is natural and healthy.�

Another rationalization for these falling teeth dream may be rooted in your fear of being embarrassed or making a fool of yourself in some specific situation. These dreams are an over-exaggeration of your worries and anxiety.�

Teeth are used to bite, tear, chew and gnaw. In this regard, teeth represent 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 is an indication that you need to be more assertive and believe in the value of your own opinion.

In the latest research, it has been shown that women in menopause have frequent dreams about teeth. This may be related to getting older and/or feeling unattractive and less feminine.

Traditionally, it was thought that dreaming that you did not have teeth, represent malnutrition which may be applicable to some dreamers.

Other Perspectives

A scriptural interpretation for bad or falling teeth indicate that you are putting your faith, trust, and beliefs in what man thinks rather than in the word of God. The bible says that God speaks once, yea twice in a dream or a vision in order to hide pride from us, to keep us back from the pit, to open our ears (spiritually) and to instruct and correct us.

In the Greek culture, when you dream about loose, rotten, or missing teeth, it indicates that a family member or close friend is very sick or even near death.

According to the Chinese, there is a saying that your teeth will fall out if your are telling lies.�

It has also been said that if you dream of your teeth falling out, then it symbolizes money. This is based on the old tooth fairy story. If you lose a tooth and leave it under the pillow, a tooth fairy would bring you money.

Answer 8

Dreams are usually a playback of what our subconscious is thinking, things we're worried about etc...When you interpret a dream it will help you realize what you may be stressing over without even knowing it.

Answer 9

Mostly likely past events are manifesting themselves in your subconsciouness. Maybe you know people who've had these things happen to them? If so, perhaps you're just thinking of them and fearing the same thing happening to you.
