You must admit that teeth damaged by caries are far from a pleasant sight. Life experience suggests that the appearance of carious injuries is a sure sign that the time has come to go to the dentist and seriously take up treatment.
And why do you dream of teeth with caries? It is not always easy to understand the meaning of such a dream, but subconsciously a person in most cases feels that such a dream does not bode well. After all, caries is, in fact, decayed teeth, a problem that causes a lot of trouble, especially if you take up its treatment too late. According to most dream books, tooth decay in a dream is a bad omen ...
The most common interpretation of dreams
It is believed that a dream in which bad teeth are present often acts as a kind of reminder that it is time to take care of your health. Moreover, it often happens that such images are dreamed of by a person who has long or not suffered from caries at all. For a better understanding of such dreams, let's turn to dream books.
In most cases, dream interpretation treats caries as unpleasant chores associated with the health of the dreamer or his relatives. It is especially bad when the disease is accompanied by bleeding, since blood symbolizes the leakage of vitality.
There are also opinions that such images can talk about overworking a person. In this way, the body tries to report that a timeout is needed. At the same time, dream interpretation recommends that you think about going on vacation and spending time with health benefits.
Another common interpretation of what caries dreams about for a healthy person with a white-toothed smile is an omen of the appearance of imaginary friends or dishonest partners who will cause a lot of trouble.
However, when you see caries in a dream, you should not panic: this is only a warning about the possible occurrence of ill-wishers or an impetus to action to improve your health: if there is a problem, go to the doctor, but no, take a rest and just listen to your sensations, possibly the body something is missing.
How different dream books interpret dreams about caries
In general, various interpretations make it clear that caries in dreams appears clearly not for good.
Now we’ll deal with the nuances: we’ll look in detail what the most popular dream books say about the image of teeth with caries, as well as other troubles in the oral cavity.
Dream Interpretations by the seasons: Autumn, Summer, Spring
In these dream books, troubles with teeth are covered in great detail. So, for example, in the Autumn Dream Book it is said that treating caries in a dream is a tooth disease. But to see a snow-white smile (it would seem a good sign) - to a lie.
It also indicates:
- to break teeth - to the forthcoming physical pain;
- many spoiled and rotten - to scandal, most often with their soulmate;
- remove the nerve - to mental suffering, strong waking feelings;
- placing a seal with a doctor means completing an unpleasant business;
- to see the cracks means to become an object of ridicule in reality.
The summer dream book also claims: if you had teeth with caries, get ready to deal with toothache in reality. Strong destruction and deep carious cavities can portend the emergence of a serious illness in a relative, but their treatment means the need to make an attempt to prevent possible problems.
To dream teeth is to their loss, and a knocked out one is a sign of confusion, loss of control over the situation.Removing a nerve means the presence in the dreamer's life of an annoying person acting on nerves, the installation of a seal is to constant turmoil in solving problems, and rare teeth are to stupid chatter.
In the Spring Dream Book, a carious tooth is a very bad sign, its appearance means the death of a sick person from the dreamer's entourage. But healthy teeth dream of well-being. Dental prosthetics means the appearance of a new kin: such a dream can be dreamed, for example, before a wedding or the birth of a child.
Teeth and blood, according to the Spring Dream Book, are daydreaming for a visit of blood relatives, but just a tooth - for the arrival of strangers. To tear the teeth in a dream - to losses, to remove nerves - to the appearance of fear for loved ones, to see the cracks - to a lie. And treatment at the dentist means meeting expectations.
The dream book of the healer Evdokia
This dream book interprets caries as a symbol of the destruction of plans, the appearance of illness or unhappiness. Extraction of teeth represents hunger, poverty and the threat of death. If the dreamer sees artificial prostheses in himself, this is a serious difficulty and test, and the image of a torn tooth is a protracted disease.
To see your mouth with bare gums in a dream means to lose something very valuable in life. Brushing and rinsing the mouth reflect the struggle for well-being, and getting rid of plaque reflects the successful overcoming of troubles.
A curious interpretation in this dream book is given to a dream in which, on the day after treatment, a person again sees caries. Such a dream most often means that in reality the dreamer entrusted the defense of his interests to individuals who were not trustworthy, and he should beware of betrayal.
Dream Interpretation of Gypsy Seraphim
In this interpreter of dreams, the image of the tooth is associated with speech: a lot of healthy teeth means a lot of talk in reality, their lack is empty useless chatter. False jaws - malicious words and treachery, tooth loss - incessant idle talk.
And here is what teeth, with caries, actually dream of - the possible presence of a “dirty” tongue in a person. Perhaps the dreamer often had to lie, slander, or insult someone who spills out sleep problems in his mouth.
Dream Book Wangi
According to Wangi's dream book, the contemplation of caries-affected teeth in a dream or their loss symbolizes health troubles. A mouth completely devoid of teeth means joyless old age alone.
Loss of a tooth, accompanied by blood, is a sign that there is a threat of losing a dear person.
Dream Interpretation of Pastor Loff
According to Pastor Loff’s dream book, teeth with caries dream that a person subconsciously anticipates health problems.
If in a dream you have to lose your tooth painfully and with blood - this means the appearance of a serious illness in a family member and even, possibly, his death in the near future. But if at the same time pain is not felt and there is no blood, it means that something previously important for the dreamer will lose its paramount importance.
Psychological dream book
In this dream book, teeth represent loved ones. Accordingly, dreams about caries lead to the illness of a loved one, about the loss of a tooth - to his death, when the loss is accompanied by blood - to the death of a blood relative.
So, all dream books interpret caries in a dream and bad teeth as an unpleasant and even sinister sign. In this case, it is recommended to usually perceive these images only as a warning, not an outcome. Then, perhaps, it will be possible to influence the situation.
The relationship of caries dreams with health
Most dream books treat tooth problems in a dream as impending health troubles in reality. And this is no coincidence: the subconscious mind often gives a hint about what a person needs to pay attention to. Dreams of any disease, including caries, often mean that the dreamer already anticipates problems, but so far ignores them.
To avoid the consequences of unpleasant dreams, various publications usually recommend that you carefully consider the images: not to ignore, but not to become discouraged. It is best to accept such a dream as a sign that it is time to act, and try to deal with all the troubles with a cold head.
The opinion of doctors
Psychologists are also of the opinion that dreams are signals of our subconscious, which, penetrating into consciousness, should motivate us to action.
Well-known doctors give their interpretation of caries in a dream. So, for example, Sigmund Freud wrote in his dream book that the appearance of a tooth damaged by caries or its loss is explained by the presence of a hidden fear of inferiority, a fear not to live up to expectations. Pain in the teeth symbolizes the desire for self-satisfaction, and staggering ones are a sign of fear of entering into an intimate relationship.
Gustav Müller considered caries in a dream a bad omen, foreshadowing illness and trouble. He recommended such a dream to be understood as a call for the need to rest and gain strength, to take care of one's health. Loss of teeth in a dream, in his opinion, indicates the presence in the dreamer's life of ill-wishers weaving intrigue.
And, of course, long procedures at the dentist, fear in the chair of tooth extraction, pain with pulpitis or deep caries can so affect the psyche, especially in impressionable people, that after such procedures and sensations the teeth dream just like an attempt by the brain to digest what happened in a day . Perhaps you should not look for the hidden background of such a dream.
If the tooth hurts so much that even in a dream makes itself felt, you just need to go to the dental clinic and solve the problem. If you spent the whole day at the dentist, were nervous, and you do not feel well - rest and relax.
Be attentive to yourself and your health, and then diseased teeth will not appear in your dreams!
