Teeth Dream - Brushing teeth and my gums were loose around my teeth...?

Question

I had a dream that I was in my bathroom, looking at my reflection in the mirror while brushing my teeth. As I was brushing my teeth, I could see that my gums were loose around my teeth, but they were not bleeding. I was actually brushing my teeth behind the gum (and my mouth appeared to be bigger in the mirror than in real life). The guy that I am dating was also in the dream, and in the dream was telling me to keep brushing like that every day and it will soon heal and get better. (Something like that) I can remember hearing his voice, but I dont remember seeing him in the mirror. Now that I think about it, I dont know if I saw my own face, I think I was only seeing my teeth in the reflection. Any interpretations?

P.S.
I don't hate the dentist. In fact, I actually like going to the dentist better than the doctor. I've never had anything wrong with my teeth, as I take very good care of them. Never even had a cavity in my life :)

Answer 1

Hm. Offhand I would say think more about the things you say, and the effects your words have on people, and that your boyfriend is a good influence, and source of advice in your life, he's helping you to learn a better way to do things, and a healthier point of view... but it wouldn't hurt to have a dental check up either....

Answer 2

If the gum was sore before the tooth became loose, it could be gingivitis or gum disease in the begining stages. It is more likely that wiggling the tooth simply irritated the gum. I've heard that ora-gel or similar topical tooth ache medications work well. I would stop wiggling it (yeah, that will be hard) and see a dentist.

Answer 3

I remembered reading in a dream interpretation manual that falling teeth usually means a death of a person. I'm not so sure on this one though.
I had this falling teeth dream once, and the next day my friend told me her grandfather died.

Answer 4

To dream that you have rotten or decaying teeth, forewarns that your health and/or business is in jeopardy. You may have uttered some false or foul words and those words are coming back to haunt you.

To dream that you are brushing your teeth, signifies your level of confidence, struggles and aggressiveness. You need to look out for yourself and your own interest.

ah, this is a simple one. in fact, i've had this one many, many times. and for all you out there who say its got a deeper meaning, stop looking so hard. put down the manuals. all it is, is that you hate the dentist, and you fear him finding something horribly wrong and having to remove your teeth or otherwise. its one of two things. fear of pain; you dont want to get your teeth pulled or something like that, or fear of being looked down upon because of appearances (eg, toothless). whichever fits you more.
