The Tooth Fairy is a wonderful night stealth creature who leaves little gifts and even money for children in exchange for their lost baby teeth.
For parents, the arrival and loss of a child's first tooth are important milestones. A baby's first tooth arrives at about 6 months. Kids lose their first baby tooth between the ages of 5 and 7. Then it's time for the Tooth Fairy to start visiting.
Most kids are a bit anxious about losing their first baby tooth, but after they know what it's like - and the rewards left in exchange by the Tooth Fairy - they enjoy playing with wiggly teeth and pulling them out.

All I Want for Christmas is My 2 Front Teeth
We all go through the toothless stage ... some earlier than others
Baby teeth start to fall out around age 6 or 7. By the time they're 12 or 13, most children have lost their last baby tooth and have a mouth full of permanent teeth - many kids also have braces to realign crooked teeth or make room for the final adult molars.I managed to lose my first tooth very early (actually, I lost 2 - in separate play accidents - before I was 3 years old). I don't recall whether the tooth fairy left me a gift for those early sacrifices, but I do know that the missing teeth didn't prevent keep me from chomping the ears off chocolate rabbits, not one bit.
For quite a few years my answer to the question, "What Do You Want for Christmas?" was yep, you guessed it - "My 2 Front Teeth". Not long after those 2 permanent front teeth finally arrived, I was regretting my wish - I had to wear braces for a couple years to correct a distinctly horsey overbite.

Got a tooth fairy story to share?
Do you have a favorite story about losing baby teeth? I'm happy to say I did finally get all my permanent teeth. For some weird reason, I only ever developed 2 wisdom teeth. And I still have 1 of them!

In our city-aka BaseBall Town-a dentist sponsors the semi-professional team (Reading Phillies), so at every game the Tooth Fairy comes out with a giant toothbrush to sweep clean all the bases. Posted September 29, 2008 |

Totally cute idea for a lens! The tooth fairy always sprinkles a little fairy dust on the pillow when she visits our house... just to let us know she's real. :) Posted August 08, 2008 |
