Many people out there occasionally see a dream of their teeth falling out. Here's a biblcal meaning addressing this very dream.

Dream Teeth Falling Out Biblical Meaning

A good number of people have recently made requests asking me to write on the meaning of teeth falling out in dreams. I've also come to understand that this is one of the most disturbing dreams that many have. On this blog we explore the meaning of common dreams from a Biblical and Christian perspective—by the enablement of the Holy Spirit

Let's trust the Spirit of God once again to bring understanding concerning dreams of teeth falling out. 

What Does It Mean To Dream Of Teeth Falling Out?


Job 4:9-10 KJV
By the blast of God they perish, and by the breath of his nostrils are they consumed. [10] The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, and the teeth of the young lions, are broken.

I'm sure it would be regarded as normalcy if a child whose milk teeth haven't yet all fallen out dreams about seeing their teeth falling out. But what about a scenario when an adult constantly dreams of seeing their teeth falling out? Something is definitely not right here! Such dreams are sure worth getting the attention of the dreamer. 

Before we delve deeper into the meaning of teeth falling out in dream, I'll like to remind you that as a Christian, whenever you see a dream that makes you uncomfortable, your response shouldn't be fear but prayer. God is above dreams and there's nothing the enemy brings your way that the Almighty cannot destroy. You have to learn to believe the reports of the Lord concerning your life, beyond whatever terrible dreams you may be seeing. 

Dream Of Teeth Falling Out What Does It Mean


Whenever you dream of anything belonging to you leaving you, it always a sign of a loss. Dreaming of teeth falling out simply means that you've lost (or about to lose) something; a very precious or important thing to you. 

The human teeth is a very vital part of the human being. Besides being the medium with which food is broken down and absorbed for digestion, the human teeth beautifies a person. A complete set of teeth beautifies and gives a sense of completeness. When a tooth or a couple of them is missing, there's always this feeling of insecurity, incompleteness and shame. 

But dreams cannot be interpreted literally. When a person dreams of their teeth falling out, it goes way beyond a physical loss. It's a huge spiritual loss that must be urgently addressed. 

For anyone to lose their teeth in a dream, this is a bad omen. This often symbolises an impending danger that can manifest in the dreamer's waking life if they are not prayerful. 

Teeth Falling Out Dream Spiritual Meaning


If a child dreams of their teeth falling out, it's somewhat safe to interpret it literally. It may be what will actually happen soon, if the child is still shedding off their milk teeth. But when an adult dreams about their teeth falling out, it has nothing to do with the physical. This is often a great spiritual loss.

Consider these:

1. The Teeth Is Like An Offensive Weapon In Warfare


Daniel 7:7 KJV
After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.

The beast which Daniel saw in this vision had dreadful set of teeth. This teeth was the source of the dominion and power that this beast exerted. As a matter of fact, this vision used the dreadful teeth of the beast as a symbol of dominion, power and victory. Without the teeth, the beast wouldn't had been able to do any of what it accomplished in this vision (as seen by Daniel). The strength of the beast was in its teeth. The spiritual meaning of loosing teeth in dream is similar to the meaning of losing hair in dreams.

When a person dreams of their teeth falling out, this dream often portend:

  • Loss of spiritual power
  • Defeat in spiritual warfare
  • Loss of someone very dear to them
  • Loss in business
  • Attack against a person's livelihood
  • A deadly attack against source of income
  • A symbol of shame and disgrace
  • Spiritual or physical demotion

Lamentations 3:15-17 KJV
He hath filled me with bitterness, he hath made me drunken with wormwood. [16] He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones, he hath covered me with ashes. [17] And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I forgat prosperity.

The major cause of dreams of teeth falling out is prayerlessness and spiritual weakness. I believe if a Christian is prayerful enough, the enemy wouldn't have the opportunity to launch such a deadly attack against them or what belongs to them. 

It's always right to seek and follow God when all is right with us. Don't wait until something goes wrong or something bad happens before you try to find God and start fasting and praying

If you have not yet welcomed the Lord Jesus Christ into your heart at the moment of reading this dream interpretation, go ahead and pray this salvation prayer to Him. He is the only one who is able to give you victory over the attacks of darkness that manifest as dreams

2. The Teeth Is The Devourer's Weapon


It is not a mistake that several scriptures describe the intensity of attacks of the wicked using the teeth. 

Job 16:9 KJV
He teareth me in his wrath, who hateth me: he gnasheth upon me with his teeth; mine enemy sharpeneth his eyes upon me.
Psalm 37:12 KJV
The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth.

From a spiritual standpoint, sharp and dreadful teeth reflects so much power, dominion and ability to wreak havoc. If an enemy loses their teeth in a dream, that is often a sign of victory for a child of God. But the reverse is the case for a Christian who loses their teeth in a dream. God made us to be the head, do not settle for the less. It is the kingdom of darkness that should actually suffer loss. 

Job 29:17 KJV
And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth.

It is the enemy who should lose their teeth and not a Christian. If a Christian loses their teeth in a dream, it simple tells that they have allowed the enemy strike them hard (spiritually) and this can potentially manifest as a mishap in their waking life if they do not pray ruggedly against it. 

Dream Teeth Falling Out Biblical Meaning


If a Christian sees a dream of their teeth falling out, there is a loss of spiritual potency; and there is a loss of victory in spiritual warfare. This isn't suppose to be. But rest assured, if you saw this dream, the Lord is about to turn it around against your attacker in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ! 

This should become one of your prayer points:

Psalm 3:7 KJV
Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.

If a Christian has recurring dreams where they see their teeth falling out, this is an indication that the enemy is all out against the overall progress, breakthrough and success of that individual. 

It is common for a Christian to see dreams of their teeth falling out after they fell into sin. As Christians, we must understand that the enemy is always on the look out for our down time to strike. I recommend such a Christian finds out where they had fallen and repent. Only through genuine repentance will God restore to them what the enemy had stolen from them. 

If a single lady dreams of her teeth falling out, this can portend a loss of virtue for marital breakthrough. As I earlier said, the teeth beautifies. Spiritual attack against a woman's teeth may have nothing to do with her physical beauty. The enemy has his way of manipulating the beauty of a person spiritually in order to cause their potential spouse to not locate them. Such a dream should not be treated lightly. 

Prayer Against Losing Teeth In Dreams


  1. Father, I come to You today asking for forgiveness for my sins. I receive forgiveness for whatever I may had done that opened the door for the enemy to attack me. Amen. 
  2. By the authority of Jesus Christ, I close every door I may had ignorantly opened for the enemy to attack me, in the Name of Jesus Christ. 
  3. I come against every attack of the enemy against my loved ones. Every death sentence spoken against me and my beloveds is thereby reversed in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ! 
  4. By the authority of Jesus Christ, I frustrate every attack of darkness against my business, job and finances. Amen. 
  5. Hand of darkness stretched against my life for the intent of causing harm, be broken in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ! 
  6. By the power of the Holy Ghost, I take back every virtue the enemy had stolen from me, in the Name of Jesus Christ! 
  7. I frustrate every plot of darkness to cause me shame and disgrace in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ! 
  8. Every Satanic-induced demotion plotted against me at my job/workplace, be destroyed in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ! 
  9. Spiritual manipulation of darkness against the beauty and glory, be thwarted by the power of God, in the Mighty Name of Jesus! 
  10. I decree and declare that whatever belongs to me shall locate me and the enemy shall not be able to stop my breakthrough, prosperity, progress and success, in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ!
