I keep having dreams about teeth.

I keep having dreams about going to the dentist, losing teeth, having loose teeth, etc. I don't like it.☹️

Last night, I had a dream that I broke some weird law of dentistry. I don't even remember what it was because it was so bizarre, but apparently I was in legal trouble because I told the dentist not to give me a check up during my regular visit and I didn't have permission to do this (???). So then my mom gave me a check up and had someone clean my teeth with a key-toothbrush thing and it was all bloody and gross and...moral of the story? BRUSH YOUR TEETH, KIDS!

*shudders*

Brain, stahp! No more dreams about teeth!

It's amazing how creative dreams can be, eh? xD And yes, brushing teeth never hurts! It also helps to eat food that isn't tooth-deteriorating; things like soda are really bad for teeth, especially for those who don't regularly brush.

For me, the problem is that I'm rather severely allergic to Novocaine, so if I get a cavity, they can't really numb me... I figured out how painful that was the hard way, and I haven't let myself get a cavity since xD

Yeah, I refuse to drink soda unless my stomach is bothering me, because to be fair, it does help settle my stomach. But other than that, I don't find syrupy, carbonated water to be the best way to spend my daily calories for junk.😋

Last night, I had an awesome dream.
Spoiler: it involved birdies!

but I was at some office building or...something, and there was this big window with a tree outside. And there were all these birds of prey--a hawk, some kestrels, and some other really pretty raptors. All of a sudden, this gryphon-looking thing landed on the ledge of the window, and it was so cute and friendly and I wish it were real cuz I would have cuddled it. Oh, and then a bald eagle landed, and I was like freaking out excited, more so than I had been about the gryphon. Which I wouldn't put past me. I love bald eagles (hence my Elge collection here!)

And then I had a dream that I sent this story I'm working on to some editing service and they sent it back to me all marked up and, in the positive feedback section, complimented my font. LOL!

Interestingly enough, soda actually makes my stomach hurt since my body isn't used to digesting acids that strong, but soda actually helps me when I'm sick in the stomach 😋 I grabbed stomach flu this year from someone, and if not for soda, I would've been throwing up everywhere.

Aha, I would have tried to huggle all of the birds there xD Do you remember your dreams often? I can only remember mine once a month or so, and it's usually on weekends when I can ease into consciousness rather than being given a heart attack from my alarm. I actually have a giant notepad document containing all of the dreams that I can remember, since if I don't write them down, I'd barely last an hour without forgetting 😋 Every now and then I go back to them for curiosity's sake to see how my mind flows when I'm unconscious. There isn't much of a trend aside from the part that there's bunnies in my dreams fairly often.

"Well, your story overall had quite a few errors, but the font was good!" Hahaha, I can only imagine getting something like that. My one friend was once complimented by an English teacher a few years ago for using really white paper, and everyone else's was apparently a "dull white" xD

Creepy... I once had a dream where I was in a body museum and then it turned into a zombie factory. o-o I could also fly.

@metaphor

I'm not superstitious or anything, but I heard that if you dream about losing teeth, it could be possible that you could lose someone in your family... Makes sense? Nah, I don't think so xD

As if MY dreams aren't weird xD I dreamt once, before my exams about this ghost sitting on top of a building and it was all like, 1+1 o.e yup, it was teaching me math xD

@metaphor

Dreaming of losing your teeth is actually pretty common, isn't it? The scary thing is, it usually means a bad omen in terms of Filipino culture, but those are just silly myths. ;D

@metaphor

Dreams are weird manifestations of real life, so if you had lots of stressful thoughts about teeth during the day, it could have caused your teeth dreams. I usually forget my dreams within 5 minutes of me waking up, so I'm not too bothered by weird dreams.

@redfire77

I never forget my dreams, it seems.
The other night, I had a dream I was in this cave pool with all these colorful fish, and when I got out, a whole school of them swarmed at my ankles. It was just a pretty image and was with me for the rest of the day.

@metaphor
I have the odd dream that I'm pulling my teeth out.. not often but definitely makes me concerned. o.0 Quite gruesome too. I pray that your teethy dreams stop!
