Of dreams incessant

But I remember now I often have this dream where my teeth are crumbling. It starts with a loose tooth that my tongue just can't stop playing with. Then it falls out and I try to recount if it was a baby tooth and supposed to fall out. Then another becomes loose, and so on. Other teeth start to crumble into pieces instead of just falling out clean. I can feel the bits shifting in my gums. It's not painful, just a bit scary. I run around with a mouth full of tooth fragments trying to find something to hold them. So what does it all mean?
Many explanations are available on the web of course:
1) Stress, problems and difficulty at work
2) Anxiety about appearance
3) Foreshadows health problems
4) Reproductive worries (since, y'know, now I can't carry my kids in my teeth from one nest to another)
I think it's because when I was little, I've always had a hard time with my baby teeth falling out. I was a big chicken when it came to pulling them out. I'd be stubborn and resist til a tooth's connection has all but receded away and it's only in place because I keep pushing it back in. Oh, and my dentist was also quite generous with the threats of rotting teeth if I didn't brush and floss and stuff.
I'll try to recall other recurrent dreams. Funny, I've never ever had the naken in public one.
