I dreamed my teeth were little glowing lanterns

I'm opening my mouth in a dark room and every tooth is glowing soft white, like tiny lanterns lined up in a row. People are walking past and gently touching my jaw, saying things like 'keep them lit' and 'don't let them go out.' I woke up and immediately wanted to floss, but also felt weirdly holy about it, like brushing had become a kind of prayer. I don't know if that means I've been overthinking dental care or underthinking everything else.
