NIGHTMARES ABOUT TEETH


Last night, I dreamt that I woke up from a slumber in my bathroom with all my teeth all jagged and cracked away. And then I woke up back to reality in a serious panic, and checked if my teeth were still intact.

............They were.

I described the dream to my friend, which I often do for a bit of a laugh. She gave me a link to a dream analysis website that offered me a little insight into the freakish world of the subconscious.

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.

Well this is a little more than semi-ironic, because the only time my smile is ever dazzling and the only ever time I get some serious necking action is in my dreams. Which is exactly where I have the problem of teeth breaking out of my mouth. I can't win. Not even within my own dreamscape.
