Mom did this job. Grandma too. No pressure, then.A FAIRY WITH A VERY SPECIAL JOB
“Hello! I'm Toothy,
and I'm a tooth fairy.”
My mom was a tooth fairy. And so was my grandma! We live in a village full of colorful houses, trees, and flowers.
When a tooth falls out, I have a new visit to make. I fly to cities around the world and leave a small surprise. The trickiest part? Finding a tiny tooth under a very large pillow.
Come along on my next visitWHERE SHOULD WE GO?
One tiny fairy.
A wonderful world.
Pick a city and have a look around. You might find a famous tower, a boat, or a child wondering exactly how a fairy opens a tooth box.
Where shall we fly tonight?

LITTLE LESSONS WITH TOOTHY
Big questions?
Let’s learn together.
Why do teeth wiggle? What is a cavity? Toothy answers in four short videos. No homework afterward. Promise.
Watch and learn with ToothyWhy does my tooth wiggle?
As adult teeth develop, the roots of baby teeth gradually dissolve. With less root holding it in place, a baby tooth gets loose and eventually falls out.
A closer look for parentsTeeth do not own calendars.
Many children start losing baby teeth around age six. Teeth arrive and leave at different times, so your smile doesn't need to race anyone else's.

FOR THE ADULTS
Read together.
Expect questions.
A loose tooth can be exciting one minute and worrying the next. These stories give you something to read and talk about together. Silly voices are optional. Children may disagree.
1
Explore a place. Find the city and country. Look for the real landmark in the illustrations.
2
Talk about a feeling. A character might be waiting, sharing, feeling worried, or hoping for a surprise. Ask how your child would feel.
3
Make it your own. Try the question in each book preview. Follow the conversation wherever it goes. Even if it ends up about dinosaurs.
Little questions, helpful answers.
How much toothpaste should children use?
Use fluoride toothpaste. For children younger than three, use a smear no bigger than a grain of rice. For ages three to six, use a pea sized amount. Supervise brushing and help your child spit out toothpaste.
Do adult teeth all replace baby teeth?
No. Some permanent molars grow behind the baby teeth without replacing a lost tooth. Keep checking the back of your child's mouth and help brush those new teeth, too. More about new molars.
Should we pull out a wiggly tooth?
Let a naturally loose tooth come out when it is ready. Don't force it. If there is pain, swelling, an injury, or a tooth that worries you, ask your child's dentist.
When should a child first visit the dentist?
The American Dental Association recommends a first visit when the first tooth appears, and no later than the first birthday. Your dentist can help plan ongoing checkups for your child.
Does the Tooth Fairy need to bring a big gift?
Every family can make its own tradition. A note, a small surprise, or a moment together can be enough. Toothy is a fairy, not a shopping list.
