I am new here, and just wanted some help or adivse about a dream I had.

A few weeks ago, my friend told me about lucid dreaming. So I looked it up, and found a technique of questioning yourself throughout the day, "Am I dreaming?" I started doing this randomly throughout the day, asking myself "Am I dreaming?" and then automatically responding "no." Last night, I had a dream that my teeth were crooked (they used to be when I was a kid). Then I asked myself "Am I dreaming?" and responded "No." I tried to fix my teeth by pushing them back into place, but all my teeth came loose, and some of them fell out, my two front ones started peeling. I could not stop crying and went to look for my mother. Then I woke up, and immediatly checked my teeth. What most worries me is that the dream felt so real, and I really thought during the dream that it was reality. Any advice, or information would help!
