lost teeth

Fairy's nightly acquisitions

Lost teeth are teeth that have fallen out or been removed.

In children, losing baby teeth is a normal developmental milestone, often ritualized with the tooth fairy.

In adults, lost teeth typically result from decay, injury, or gum disease: He's self-conscious about his lost teeth.

Dreams about lost teeth are commonly interpreted as anxiety symbols.
