I usually don't believe in the significance of dreams, but I think this has to mean something. It involved my therapist being a dentist (not a therapist) and me showing up for a cleaning after a day of dirtbiking the dunes. I was wearing my shoulder and chest protector, boots, gloves, but just underwear and no pants. When I got in the chair I had an erection and was trying to cover it up with while I casually chatted about the weather. Embarrassing as heck, thanks a lot brain 
Would you tell your therapist? Would you tell but leave part of it out? Is it completely random and irrelevant? I'd be interested to know what she thinks about it but if she's just going to blow it off and say dreams mean nothing then I don't want to embarrass myself for no reason. |
Obviously I'm not a therapist, but I have done extensive work with dream interpretation, If you were to come to me for a "professional dream analysis" I would tell you that: frequently dreams about sex are not actually about sex, they are often about feeling vulnerable, or being afraid to be open and honest about something. The fact that You're wearing dirt biking gear but no pants supports this notion, as well as indicating that the issues you are dealing with are typically not considered to be "masculine" and you're concerned about being "judged" as less then because of it, and finally dentists, or teeth usually represent deep seeded issues, that are very personal in nature.
Not knowing more of your background I don't know how accurate this interpretation could be, if I were doing a "professional" dream interpretation reading, I would be asking you questions about what certain things mean to you. Dreams are the subconscious way of working out problems, so a lot of your personal experiences may differ from the generalized meaning them.
