Dream recall: Partial recall - weak

Scene 1: A Domestic Bathroom (Location Unknown) - Time Unknown

I was in a bathroom - it wasn't my real life bathroom, or a bathroom which I recognise from real life, but it felt familiar. I looked in the mirror above the sink. I did not notice if my appearance was different from real life, but I did see that one of my teeth - centre, bottom row, which is slightly chipped in real life - had a crack which ran down the entire length of the tooth, down to the gum line. I pushed the broken tooth with my finger and heard it make a cracking sound. I walked over to the bath, worried. I was not sure if I could get treatment for my tooth (I have a phobia of dental or medical treatment), and wondered if anyone else would notice it.

Day Residue:

• The day before this dream I was listening to a Klashnekoff track 'New Era' from the Terra Firma album, The Foundation (2006) in which there is a lyric which goes: 'rappers are better learning that / chatting will get their pearlies cracked'
• The day before this dream I had been doing some home teeth whitening treatments using bicarbonate of soda and hydrogen peroxide
• The day before this dream I had seen an online article about Johnny Depp posted on a news website. The image of Depp used showed stained and uneven teeth, which led to many comments from Facebook users who were shocked at the state of his teeth
