"My Teeth are Falling"
Dreaming about teeth falling out is another common dream. On dreammoods.com, falling teeth dreams are the most common dreams they receive. In dreams about teeth, teeth may fall out, grow crooked, rot, or crumble in your hands. These types of dreams have many different interpretations. One example is that you are self-conscious about your image. The world today models people with bright white teeth. Furthermore, someone might have a fear of being rejected or getting old. These two things both play a part in appearance. Often times women going through menopause will dream this because they are getting old and no longer feel as feminine. Losing teeth can also symbolize your fear of being embarrassed in an upcoming event. Moreover, teeth can represent the feeling of not having power in some, or all, parts of your life. A Biblical interpretation is that your faith is being put somewhere other than in God's word. Dream Moods also describes the Greek and Chinese cultures' iterpretations of falling teeth.
I think Dream Moods has done a great job describing the interpretations for falling teeth. I can see how each of these symbols would apply, that is, depending on the person and what is going on in his or her life. In the article, the authors says "Sadly, we live in a world where appearance and attractiveness matter and your teeth help to convey that image" (unknown). This is so true; today, teeth are always being edited before a person's picture is put in a magazine. Falling or rotting teeth is a great way to tell someone what they might not realize while awake. I can also see how teeth represent power. I use my teeth to chew on my food, and without them, I am unable to do this; I lose the power I once had over my food. On the other hand, I have a harder time grasping the Biblical interpretation. It doesn't make sense to me that of all things, God would use rotting or falling teeth to show me that I am not putting all of my trust in Him. I know, though, that He knows better than me and has a reason for choosing teeth to symbolize this.
