Popularly, teeth are supposed to stand for aggressive sexuality – although more properly they signify the growth process towards sexual maturity.

Teeth falling or coming out easily indicates we are aware of going through a form of transition, similar to that from childhood to maturity, or from maturity to old age and helplessness.

If we are anxious about teeth dropping out it suggests there is a fear of getting old and undesirable, or an anxiety about maturing.

In a woman’s dream, if the teeth are swallowed this can sometimes signify pregnancy, a wish for pregnancy, or an issue with sex.
