A dream about teeth falling out can be distressing. It means there is intense anxiety and instability in your life. However, it is important to note that no two dreams are identical and all interpretations are merely guidelines.
Here are all the meanings of losing teeth in the dream.

If you dream about losing your teeth while you eat or chew in the dream, it means your confidence feels threatened.
You are worried about how something will turn out, and it potentially may turn out due to your subconscious mind being scared. The state of your mind always has an impact on how things turn out.
Losing teeth while you eat implies there is something that is worrying you, something that will be as beneficial as food to your life.
It could be that there is an exam coming, an interview, a big event such as a wedding coming, but that is worrying you. If you overcome the anxiety, you will reap the beneficial part.
What to do: Drop your worry. You can do it even if it seems impossible

Dream about something stuck in your teeth
To dream about something stuck in your teeth implies you are having a hard time making use of the good things in your life. Things are just going wrong for no reason.
Even something good turns into something bad as can be seen from the thing getting stuck in your teeth

But this frustration is not coming from the dream but it is just your subconscious mind finding a way of expressing and understanding that feeling.
Dirty teeth dream meaning
Dirty teeth in the dream mean someone is about to do something to you that will erode your reputation. This will change the way people look at you and it will be something embarrassing.

If you find out that they are dirty while you are in public and everyone sees, it means the incident will leave you with a very damaged reputation.
What to do: Learn from those that have gone ahead of you. Things are not really bad yet. The dirt you saw in your teeth can be gotten rid of. However, you will need to take action. It all takes just one step.
