Why do you dream about teeth with caries in your mouth?

Sometimes people dream about such an unpleasant phenomenon as tooth decay. Does this mean that the dreamer will soon have to go to the dentist? Some of us take this vision literally and are not aware that the dream has a completely different meaning. What this symbol means and what the subconscious is trying to warn us about can be found out in our article.

Features of the dream

Rotten teeth seen in a dream do not bode well. Where, from where and for whom to expect trouble depends on the details and circumstances of the dream. The interpretation of what you saw can be found in numerous dream books and reference books. It is important to remember what the main points were, who had the disease, to what extent, whether incisors or molars were removed, whether there was blood.

See caries in yourself

Often people forget dreams, but remember the main message, image, feeling. Very little information can be interpreted in detail, because if it is remembered, then it is important for the subconscious. If the main plot is caries on your teeth, then this could mean the following:

a small black spot on a healthy tooth means that there has been a slight disagreement and a deterioration in relations with someone, but this is easily corrected,
the dental tissue has rotted, only a stump remains - a harbinger of big troubles,
Seeing a doctor for treatment means correcting mistakes, restoring relationships,
the caries seen turned out to be an innocent spot - a harbinger of unexpected surprises,
own teeth contain holes - there are insincere people around, ill-wishers,
If in a dream you were admiring your smile in the mirror and suddenly saw a speck, but when checked it turned out to be a piece of stuck food, then you will soon find out who is plotting intrigues around you.

Seeing caries in a loved one

According to Loff’s dream book, if you dreamed about dental disease in a loved one, it means that the sleeper will have to experience betrayal or meanness from him. This may happen unintentionally as a result of circumstances and events beyond his control. The degree and depth of trouble depends on how damaged your loved one’s teeth are in the dream.

A stranger's teeth with caries

Such a dream contains two images at once - a stranger and caries. A dream about an unknown person is a reflection of your own alter ego. If he is handsome, and damaged teeth are the only drawback, then the sleeper is now all right, but troubles are coming, which the subconscious is already afraid of.

A stranger's caries is a reflection of the dreamer's own fears. If a stranger has a repulsive appearance, and also rotten teeth, then you should take a closer look at yourself, which of your traits and actions can predetermine big troubles. A male stranger in a dream always warns against reckless actions that you may commit.

Interpretation

Each dream book interprets caries in its own way. In the interpretation of dreams, details and circumstances are essential. The author of the dream needs to realize and formulate them. Dream books only give a general interpretation of what you dreamed about. In any case, you need to focus not so much on the information gleaned from the reference book, but on your own feelings and assessment of the situation.

Interpretation according to Miller

The American psychologist Miller believed that if the dreamer dreams of caries, then this promises a deterioration in his health. Miller's interpretation of the details is as follows:

affected teeth – overload in life, which can lead to illness,
filling a tooth means that all problems will be resolved, and all ailments will be cured,
if the filling turns black, someone close to you may cause pain and trouble.

Freud's Dream Book

The great psychoanalyst Freud believed that dreams reflect our mental activity, the complex work performed by the subconscious and our mental organization. His interpretation of sick teeth in dreams is as follows:

brushing teeth that have become blackened with plaque - a desire to correct the situation and “whiten” your reputation,
teeth crack, crumble and fall out - complications will begin in relationships with loved ones, it will not be possible to avoid conflict,
a tooth is loose - a turning point in life, the way out of which depends only on the sleeper,
the front incisor is wobbling - one of the children is in danger of misfortune,
treating teeth means a person has every opportunity to cope with troubles,
putting a seal - putting things in order in relationships and affairs,
Seeing from the outside how your teeth are being treated is a new acquaintance or the next stage in life.

Vanga's interpretation

The seer Vanga's dream book believes that seeing caries on your teeth means upcoming illnesses. Their severity and consequences are associated with the degree of destruction and loss of teeth during sleep.

A completely empty mouth portends a sad, lonely old age. Tooth loss, according to Vanga, predicts a threat to the life of a loved one.

Dream Interpretation by Seasons

There is a dream book that interprets dreams depending on the time of year in which the sleeper is. The spring dream book interprets caries as the death of a loved one. Letny attributes this disease to upcoming physical suffering, as well as:

deep caries with severe destruction indicates the illness of a loved one, but if a doctor intervenes in a dream, then you need to warn your relatives,
removal of a nerve - there is someone next to the sleeping person who constantly bothers him,
putting a filling - the issue of interest will be resolved, but with some fuss and confusion,
a gap between teeth is useless talk.

The autumn dream book interprets dental problems as follows:

pulling a tooth means severe physical pain,
caries and rot in the mouth - to a quarrel with a loved one,
removal of a nerve - to mental turmoil,
filling - completion of long-standing neglected cases,
a gap between the teeth - to ridicule from strangers.

Dream Interpretations by Seasons: Autumn, Summer, Spring

In these dream books, troubles with teeth are covered in great detail. For example, in the Autumn Dream Book it is said that treating caries in a dream means dental diseases. But seeing a snow-white smile (seemingly a good sign) is a sign of lying.

It also states here:

pulling teeth - foretells upcoming physical pain;
many spoiled and rotten - to a scandal, most often with your soulmate;
removing a nerve - to mental suffering, strong experiences in reality;
getting a filling from a doctor means completing an unpleasant task;
to see gaps means to become the subject of ridicule in reality.

The summer dream book also states: if you dreamed of teeth with caries, get ready to fight toothache in reality. Severe decay and deep carious cavities may portend the appearance of a serious illness in a relative, but their treatment means the need to make an attempt to prevent possible problems.

Inserting teeth in a dream means losing them, while knocking them out 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 who gets on the nerves, installing a filling means constant turmoil in solving problems, and sparse teeth means 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 environment. But healthy teeth dream of prosperity. Dental prosthetics means the appearance of new relatives: such a dream can occur, for example, before a wedding or the birth of a child.

Teeth and blood, according to the Spring Dream Book, dream of a visit from blood relatives, and just a tooth - of the arrival of strangers. Pulling teeth in a dream means losses, removing nerves means fear for loved ones, seeing chips means lying. And treatment at the dentist means meeting your expectations.

The opinion of psychologists about what dreams of teeth affected by caries mean

Psychologist Müller and psychoanalyst Freud spent many years researching dreams. They agree that dreams are a product of the human brain, a signal sent by the subconscious to a person in order to encourage him to take some action. Both experts, on the question of why you dream of caries in your mouth, considered this a bad omen, a message about upcoming health problems (we recommend reading: why do you dream of a rotten tooth in your mouth?).

All of the above applies to people who are not bothered by toothache in real life. If a person really has caries, he experiences discomfort, or in the recent past he underwent treatment in a dental office, then such a dream does not foretell anything, but is only an attempt by the subconscious to digest the stress, pain and experiences suffered. In this case, a person needs to rest and gain strength.

Doctors' opinion

Psychologists are also of the opinion that dreams are signals from our subconscious, which, penetrating into consciousness, should motivate action.

Famous doctors give their interpretations of caries in a dream. 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 one’s inferiority, the fear of not meeting expectations. Pain in teeth symbolizes the desire for self-satisfaction, and shaky teeth are a sign of fear of entering into an intimate relationship.

Gustav Müller considered caries in a dream to be a bad omen, foreshadowing illness and trouble. He recommended understanding such a dream as a call for the need to rest and gain strength, and take care of your health. Losing teeth in a dream, in his opinion, indicates the presence in the dreamer’s life of ill-wishers who are weaving intrigues.

And, of course, long procedures at the dentist, fear in the chair before tooth extraction, pain due to pulpitis or deep caries can have such a strong impact on the psyche, especially in impressionable people, that after such procedures and sensations teeth are simply seen as an attempt by the brain to digest what happened during the day . Perhaps you shouldn’t look for the hidden meaning of such a dream.

If a tooth hurts so much that it makes itself felt even in your sleep, you just need to go to the dental clinic and solve the problem

If you've spent the whole day at the dentist, you're nervous and don't feel well - rest and relax.

Be attentive to yourself and your health, and then bad teeth will not appear in your dreams!

Dreams and their interpretation

Why do you dream about teeth with caries?

Teeth in a dream symbolize the protective forces of the sleeper, as well as family ties; caries symbolizes problems with teeth, i.e., with the dreamer’s protection; if in real life the sleeper regularly visits the dentist and has healthy teeth, why then dream of caries? Teeth with caries are the dreamer’s problems with relatives; if the dreamer saw blood in a dream, this adds negativity to the dream; deprivation and hardship await the sleeper in reality. Seeing teeth with caries in a dream means the dreamer will face health problems; in reality, you need to alternate work with rest, eat well and listen to the signals of your own body.

To see a tiny black dot on a snow-white tooth in a dream is a symbol of aggravated relationships and misunderstandings; half-rotten teeth in the oral cavity are a sign of terrible adversity and hardship. If a person sleeping in a dream goes to the dentist, this means an attempt to correct an unpleasant situation; the dream has another interpretation: the person sleeping in reality will have to confront some kind of illness.

When in a dream the sleeper saw carious formations on his own teeth, this means that the dreamer is surrounded by a hypocrite who has won his trust. If you dreamed that a person sleeping on his teeth examined black dots that turned out to be food remains, this means that soon the owner of the dream will expose the one who is weaving intrigues against him, hiding behind his friendship.

Comments

hope:

I dreamed that I was standing near the mirror with my mouth open! and I see caries on my teeth! I’m very worried about this in my sleep!

Olga:

I was sitting in the dentist’s chair and he told me that there was a small cavity and he would remove it now; in the mirror I could barely see the caries.

Dimitrina:

I dreamed that I saw on my tooth where they put a filling on me, like caries or as if the tooth was being destroyed! In fact, I have a tooth that is bad!

Anastasia:

I saw a small caries on the front tooth on the left. Then I wanted to look. I started to touch it, and it broke off in half

Rimma:

I don't remember the whole dream. I remember the moment that I looked at my teeth, I saw a little black... with a dental instrument that is usually used to examine teeth, I ran it over the tooth a couple of times, the enamel fell off and I saw this caries all over the tooth. I remember being upset that I would have to treat ANOTHER tooth.

What if you dream about teeth with caries?

If caries in a dream was on a friend’s teeth, this means that soon you should expect trouble, namely, betrayal of a friend, looking at caries on teeth in your mouth and seeing that one tooth has fallen out means that there are continuous difficulties ahead if it fell out with blood - problems will come from a relative.

When a dreamer feels pain when a tooth falls out, this means that he will soon get sick; if a child’s tooth falls out due to caries, this means impending unpleasant troubles; if the child had a milk tooth, then he will have to plunge headlong into worries and troubles .A permanent tooth falling out of a child’s mouth prompts the thought that one must make life decisions on one’s own, the Lunar Dream Book is sure.

A trip to the dentist is considered by some dream books as not a very good sign, but if the treatment went like clockwork and the dreamer did not feel any pain, this means that all obstacles will be easily overcome, difficult issues will be resolved without any effort.

In a dream, the dreamer tries to treat teeth with caries on his own, which means that he is a closed person and does not want to disclose his difficulties to other people; it is possible that he has done something that is now embarrassing to tell others.

A dream in which the dreamer came to the clinic to treat caries, but suddenly changed his mind, is interpreted by the dream book as the dreamer’s indecision and fear of someone or something.

Dream Interpretation of the White Mage

This interpreter recommends remembering which teeth were affected. The following options are offered:

Blackened front teeth promise loneliness. Soon the person will need help, but he won’t have to count on it.
Have your fangs turned black? This means that the dreamer will soon feel defenseless and helpless. It is possible that the feeling of uselessness will lead him to depression.
Molar black teeth remind you: you need to spend time with your family and friends. They really need the dreamer's attention. In addition, by visiting them now, a person can receive valuable advice.
Black wisdom teeth represent a connection with ancient ancestors who are no longer alive. In this context, they hint: maybe a person shouldn’t neglect family traditions so much?

It is also important to remember the emotions experienced at the moment of the vision. Was the man afraid of his black teeth? This means that in reality he is completely unprepared for the difficulties ahead. The dreamer immediately began trying to get rid of them - began to pull them out, loosen them? This indicates his habit of not solving a problem, but getting rid of it.

What does it mean for teeth with caries?

Many dream interpreters give the same interpretations of what dreams of dental treatment mean: the best time has come in the dreamer’s life to finish a difficult task that has ever been abandoned. If in a dream someone else brought you to treat teeth with caries, then in real life this person will help the dreamer cope with all the difficulties.

When you dreamed that the dreamer came to the dentist, but when he saw the drill, he got scared and ran away, this is a direct indication that the dreamer has done a lot of unseemly things and is now afraid of being exposed. If a sleeping person has lost all his teeth from caries, it is a bad omen; soon all his relatives will die from some disease and he will be left alone, but if he puts on gold crowns, in reality he will become a rich man.

It will be interesting to know that the upper jaws mean relatives in the male line, and the lower jaws - in the female line, so if in a dream caries affects the upper teeth, the sleeper will have problems with male relatives, and lower ones - with female ones.

If a child’s molars are affected by caries, this means that he will endure many difficulties and sufferings in life, since molars symbolize life’s lessons.

Visit to the dentist

What does a dream portend in which you went to the dentist to cure carious teeth? This is only confirmation that in reality you are determined enough to complete all the work you have started, sum up the results, pay off debts, and fulfill your obligations.

But if in a dream you suddenly got scared on the threshold of the dental office and backed out, then in reality you will act extremely indecisively, painfully afraid of the consequences of each step you take. One of your friends or relatives will help you overcome these fears and doubts if you dreamed that someone took you by the hand to an appointment with the dentist. Be sure that with support you will cope with any difficulties, overcome adversity and trials.

General meaning of the symbol

Dreams about dental caries always warn of something unpleasant that may happen to a person in the near future. In most cases, dream books remind you that the dreamer should take care of his own health and that of his loved ones.

A detailed interpretation can be obtained by taking into account:

who had a dream;
emotions and sensations of the dreamer;
caries size;
what happened to the teeth, etc.

What else to think about

The fortuneteller Vanga in her interpretations is close to most of the sources described above. If you had to lose your teeth, then health problems will arise. Procedures that were accompanied by a large amount of blood are a symbol that a person close to your heart will turn away from you. You must think about every word you say, otherwise you will be left alone. The psychological dream interpreter draws a parallel between close relatives and teeth, and therefore caries is an alarm bell about the health of loved ones.

To summarize the above, we can say that caries is one of the unpleasant images that makes you think, and therefore you should not panic ahead of time.

The dreamer has caries

When a person dreams of problems with his own teeth, he needs to remember in detail what they looked like. A small black dot on a practically healthy snow-white fang is a sign of conflicts that will soon begin in the family. The reason will be a misunderstanding between close people.

Seeing half-rotten stumps in your mouth is a sign of big trouble. These could be serious health problems or misunderstandings in the family. The more frightened the dreamer was by his problem teeth, the more difficult it will be for him to cope with his worries in reality. If he immediately turned to the dentist, it means he is trying to correct the situation .

A severely damaged molar due to deep caries warns that the dreamer’s relatives may have serious illnesses. If in a dream the dentist has already begun treatment, then in real life the person will have time to refer his relatives to specialist doctors in time.

If the carious point, after careful examination, turns out to be fake, you should expect surprises in the near future. They will turn out to be both pleasant and not so pleasant. It’s bad when blood flows from a carious cavity - it symbolizes a leak of vital energy .

Seeing your toothless mouth in a dream means some serious loss. Diligently brushing your molars means fighting for your well-being. If you manage to get rid of plaque, then in reality you will be able to overcome all obstacles.

According to the dream book, caries in a dream in a person who in reality has a beautiful white-toothed smile predicts the appearance of imaginary friends. These could be partners plotting behind the dreamer’s back.

Some predictors believe that such a plot may indicate a person is overworked. The body is trying to tell the sleeper that he has taken on too many responsibilities and cannot cope with them. A little rest will help restore both physical and mental health .

Why does dental caries occur?

Caries is a dental disease that destroys the surface and deep tissues of the tooth. Scientists and doctors have been studying the question of what leads to tooth decay for many years. And the causes of the pathology are still not fully understood.

Nevertheless, there is scientifically based data that underlies the modern concept of caries. Many bacteria live in the oral cavity of any person, including Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillius. These representatives of natural microflora can be harmful to teeth. When a person eats a lot of carbohydrate, sweet foods, these bacteria process the sugar, causing fermentation. As a result, the process of plaque formation intensifies, and the processing of sugar results in acids that destroy enamel and dentin.

Thus, the main factors of dental caries are:

a large amount of carbohydrates in the diet;
cariogenic bacteria in dental plaque.

Additional risk factors may include:

lack of fluoride in the body (it is responsible for the strength of enamel);
insufficient quantity or viscosity of saliva (it washes away plaque and has a bactericidal effect);
poor oral hygiene;
weakening of local or general immunity;
genetic prerequisites for the development of pathology.

Another person has problems

Seeing your friend’s caries in a dream means betrayal of a loved one. Perhaps he will not do this on purpose, but the disappointment from this act will be very strong.

Seeing rotten things in your soulmate’s mouth is a sign of quarrels and misunderstandings. The couple may face divorce if they do not find common ground. A girl who saw her fiancé's caries should seriously think about whether she is ready to throw in her lot with this man. Perhaps he is not at all who he says he is.

To see in a dream how a dentist treats caries is a sign of deception. If a relative has a fang pulled out, he may experience health problems. We need to remind him of the need to conduct an examination.

Universal dream book

If a person saw black teeth, but they were not his, but someone else’s, it means that in reality he will be drawn into solving other people’s problems. Although he will try with all his might to avoid such a turn of events.

Did you see black teeth on a stranger? Such a vision is a reminder of the dualism of the world and the eternity of feelings.

Has a person seen black teeth on someone's parents? This promises the departure of one of the relatives from the family. Death is not meant. Perhaps someone will get married and start their own family.

Did your brother or sister have black teeth? This is a good sign. It portends the disappearance from sight of someone who negatively influenced either the dreamer or someone close to him.

The main thing is not to dream about your significant other’s black tooth. Because such a vision foreshadows a break in the relationship.

Actions with teeth

The interpretation of the dream also depends on what actions were performed with the teeth:

Pulling teeth in a dream means severe pain that certain events will cause. Seeing a tooth fall out of your own mouth means you will soon receive unpleasant news. There will probably be a difficult period in life soon. If a molar falls out with blood, then a close relative will cause problems. When a tooth fell out, severe pain was felt - in real life, a disease threatens.

Removing a nerve can be a dream of some kind of mental suffering, worries about yourself and your close relatives. Sometimes this unpleasant and painful procedure indicates that there is a person in the dreamer’s life who greatly gets on his nerves. The doctor gave the dreamer a filling - in reality this person will finally be able to complete an unpleasant matter that has been dragging on for a very long time.

A tooth knocked out in a dream represents confusion and a lack of understanding of how to live. If the dreamer inserted teeth in a dream, it means that in reality he will soon lose them.

Do not panic if you encounter dental problems in a dream. Dreams of dental caries not only indicate some tragic events. Sometimes this image can only be a warning that something will happen in life. Being treated by a dentist in a dream is a sign that you need to take care of your health in reality, as well as take care of your loved ones.

Esoteric dream book

Did you see one of the incisors turn black for some reason? This means you need to prepare for the unexpected. We need to reconsider our affairs, get rid of unnecessary things, and also begin to take an interest in the affairs of our family and friends. It also doesn't hurt to be concerned about your health.

Have your teeth turned black under a filling? Such a vision promises deception. The terrible thing is that it will be veiled under something pleasant.

But if only one tooth has turned black, then you don’t have to worry. The dream book assures: such a vision portends good luck. The most important thing is not to miss the moment when she smiles at a person.
