Research-backed context
About tooth (waking reference): A tooth is a hard, calcified structure found in the jaws of many vertebrates and used to break down food. Some animals, particularly carnivores and omnivores, also use teeth to help with capturing or wounding prey, tearing food, for defensive purposes, to intimidate other animals often including their own, or to car… In dreams, this background informs—but does not replace—your scene and emotion.
