My daughter has yet to start losing teeth but it's good to know the going rate. Angela - I really like the silver dollar idea- fancy fairy money! Tara - you better watch out before your son starts pulling his teeth out before they're ready! And I'll remember those apples. Julia - you sound like me. I can totally see myself doing one and forgetting about all the rest! Amy - I'd just leave it alone. My husband had a patient bring in her child for a wiggling tooth. He just said to let it fall out on its own. No magic dentistry tricks! Jojo - so what do think we'd get for a kidney? More than a silver dollar I hope! Kailani - wow, I want to move to your house! That's some sweet loot the fairy brings! - Kellie Thanks for all the feedback everyone! My daughter has yet to start losing teeth but it’s good to know the going rate.

Then I did the math and realized that the tooth fairy could not afford to keep this up. Now she gets $2 a tooth and no toy. Girlie Girl’s first tooth received $5 and a toy.

So when my daughter starts losing her teeth in a couple of years, the price will go up again? I like the clean teeth thing though, that's a great motivator. Do you think the tooth fairy concept teaches kids that we sell our body parts for money? Geez even the Tooth Fairy is going through inflation?

I guess I need to stock up soon! This hasn’t happened to us yet, but I’m thinking a silver dollar would be cool. I guess I need to stock up soon!

Maybe 50 cents? I just remember the cutest little pillow my Mom made for me. It had a tiny pocket to put the tooth, had a sticking of the tooth fairy on it, and in the morning there'd be money in the pocket and the tooth would be gone. Such fun!

By the third child and the 50th tooth...it seems like sharks live in the house....teeth are falling out every day and to boot...our tooth fairy is very unreliable. She has left teeth and given money, forgotten to come at all and taken teeth and forgotten to leave the money....our children know that we live on the unreliable tooth fairy route. They want to move...I am sure this fairy has other dissatisfied customers. If you are on this fairy's route, I would love to hear from you...then I will know that I am not the only failing parent . If you only have one child...I am confident that you do not have my tooth fairy. Cheers Julia www.backcounterbuffet.blogspot.com OK …let’s get real.

He's washed it, dried it and put it under his pillow. Says he's saving up for a new game (I caught him checking for more wobbly teeth in the mirror!)
