☾Teeth Falling Out

Dreams about teeth falling out are among the most common. They typically represent anxiety about appearance, fear of embarrassment, feelings of powerlessness, or concerns about aging and mortality.

Psychology

Psychologically, teeth dreams are strongly linked to anxiety and loss of control. Research published in psychological journals shows correlation with dental irritation during sleep, but the symbolic interpretation points to fears about self-image, communication problems, or feeling unable to "bite into" life's challenges.

Spiritual

In many spiritual traditions, teeth dreams signify transition and rebirth. Losing teeth can symbolize the shedding of old beliefs, making room for new growth. Some cultures view it as a warning to be more careful with your words, as teeth are tools of speech.
