FAQs: Your questions answered

What is a tooth fairy box?

A tooth fairy box is a small box or container designed to hold a child’s lost baby teeth. It is a special place where children can store their teeth until the Tooth Fairy visits and leaves a small reward in exchange for the tooth.

At what age could I introduce the tooth fairy?

According to the American Dental Association (ADA), children usually start losing their first baby teeth around the age of 6 or 7. And this is a good time to introduce a tooth fairy box and start the tradition of the Tooth Fairy.

Who is the Tooth Fairy?

The Tooth Fairy is a mythical character in Western culture who is said to visit children after they lose a tooth, and leave a small gift or money in exchange for the tooth. It’s thought she takes the teeth to build her castle or help other children grow strong teeth.

How much money does the Tooth Fairy leave?

The amount of money the Tooth Fairy leaves varies depending on a number of factors, such as the child’s age, the family’s tradition, and the location. According to a recent poll question we asked on Mum’s Grapevine Facebook page the going rate is a $2 gold coin.
