Does anyone have a fear of their teeth falling out?

I often dream that mine are which I don't like

Yeah I ge so afraid that my teeth will fall out. I know they won't fall out any time soon as I am still young and my teeth are still healthy. But I often get really anxious that when I get into my 40/50s they will begin to start falling out! I know they won't as long as i keep looking after them good, but still I can't help thinking about what if!

I often have dreams about my teeth falling out. In one dream my tooth falls out and when I go to pick it up it breaks in half, then I go to pick up the two bits and they break in half too. And it goes on and on until my tooth is noting but dust... And then I wake up and check my teeth are there with a sigh of relief that they are!

Funny you should ask... my teeth are not in very good condition as I can't get a dentist (UK dental crisis!), and even if I could there's no way I could afford treatment. I do worry about my teeth as one of them totally crumbled over the course of a few weeks, (this was 3 years ago) and eventually had to get the remaining spikes of tooth removed. Haven't seen a dentist since, so I do get really worried about them sometimes, although that is quite rational in the circumstances.

Occasionally, though, I have this awful dream where all my teeth start crumbling in my mouth, my mouth is full of broken teeth and I am choking on them, I can't breathe and I can't seem to spit them out - its horrible!

The one about lying is a bit inaccurate. Dreaming about your teeth falling out is a sign of insecurity. Try to discover the problem behind this fear, i.e. what you have to be insecure about. It's really common actually i read it somewhere quite recently. anyway it's very unlikely that you teeth are going to fall out so don't worry . . .be happy!!!

I keep having dreams of my teeth falling out. I can just be sat there, and one falls out after the other. It is quite scary. Maybe it will happen one day where I will have to have them removed.

No, but mine did actually start to fall out. I lost a couple front teeth then had to have them all taken out so now I don't have any at all. Savin up for some falsies tho.

They say if you fear your teeth will fall out or dream your teeth fall out, it means you have lied, if you stop telling lies, you will stop having these fears and dreams.

Well if it was a dream, Ive been told it means someone is going to die. But if you seriously have a fear of theeth thats call odontophobia and maybe you need to see someone about this.

Yesssssssss! I dreamt about it once, it scared the hell out of me but i wouldnt say its a huge fear, just a minor fear, i fear for it when i am old..i dont want to be gummy.

No - but then mine all fell out anyway - my flase teeth never fall out unless I sneeze really hard LOL

Yes, especially now coz ive just had my brace taken out and they're nice and straight so if anything happens to them i really would cry!!!!!
