Teeth falling in a dream: what the old books say
Kanavu Nool v.6 puts teeth falling in a dream in its not-favourable group; Kana Nool v.10 has a line on one's own tooth breaking that seems to be about property, though one of its words is unclear. This is an old traditional view, not a prediction about you.
Source: Kanavu Nool, Chennai 1880 (v.6); Kana Nool, Madurai 1903 (v.10). In our own words
These are traditional beliefs from two old printed books, not predictions. The books sometimes give harsher readings than these, and we do not reproduce them. "Not favourable" here means only that tradition reads a minor setback.
What the books say
Beside each line is the book, verse (v.) and page (p.): 1880 is the Kanavu Nool, 1903 the Kana Nool. Both labels together mean both books say it.
- Not favourable Teeth falling out (the same verse also lists hair falling): Tradition reads a minor setback 1880 v.6, p.3
- Not favourable Seeing one's own tooth break: It can be read as a loss of property, but one word of the line is unclear, so it cannot be stated for certain 1903 v.10, p.4
What the books leave out
That is all the old books have on this. Neither has a line for an aching tooth, a tooth pulled, a milk tooth, or blood in the mouth. We do not reproduce the harsher result in Kanavu Nool v.6.
Frequently asked
What does it mean if teeth fall out in a dream?
The old Kanavu Nool (v.6) puts it in its not-favourable group; only the traditional "a minor setback may come" is given here. Kana Nool v.10 looks milder and to be about property, but its wording is unclear.
Should I worry after a dream about teeth falling out?
There is no need. This is an old book's traditional view, and there is no evidence that dreams foretell anything. If the dream keeps returning and spoils your sleep, it is a good idea to talk to a doctor.
