But looking up the means of those, the gum one symbolizes that you feel indecisive, powerless etc and may feel overwhelmed by a problem. The teeth one is fears of how you're being perceived and feeling a loss of control.
Almost always when I have those dreams, I think of those explanations, and I can pinpoint the thing in my life that's bothering me.

I have these dreams ALL THE TIME! Most frequently I have the gum or other sticky substance in my mouth which keeps me from talking. I will put my entire hand in my mouth trying to scrape it out but can never clear it out. Sooo frustrating! I'll have to figure out what's making me feel powerless or overwhelmed next time I have this dream.
My other recurrent dream will occur in either college or high school. I will know in my dream that I have graduated from Medical school but for some reason I am back at HS or college enrolled in a full load of courses. The entire dream is spent worrying that I haven't gone to one of my classes the entire semester. Sometimes I am living in the AOII dorm and sometimes my dog, Willow, is with me. I never fail any classes, but I'm so worried that I need to go to a class.
