Function fear — What tooth does waking (speak, walk, see) informs the dream read. Aging or loss — Decay, removal, or damage to tooth often tracks mortality anxiety fairly. Boundary — Skin, edge, or joint imagery on tooth marks where self meets world. Care access — Can you treat, cover, or ignore tooth in the dream—agency check.
