Dear Your Name,

What a night! I flew in through your window just after the moon came up and found your bottom front tooth waiting for me. Your very first tooth! I've been waiting for this one since you were a tiny baby.

It was so clean and sparkly that I could see my own wings in it. I also noticed how well you've been brushing. Your smile is one of the brightest in the whole town.

I've left you a shiny coin as a thank you. Your tooth is going somewhere special: I'm using it to build a new window for my cottage in the clouds, so I can watch the moon.

Keep brushing twice a day, and I'll see you when the next one wobbles.

Love and sparkles,

Twinkle

What to write in a tooth fairy letter

Would rather write it by hand? Borrow a line or two.

For the first tooth

“Your very first tooth! I've been waiting for this one since you were a baby.”
“This tooth is going in my special box for first teeth. It's the shiniest one in there.”
“Losing your first tooth is a big deal. You were so brave.”

For being brave or kind

“A little bird told me you were kind to a friend this week. Tooth fairies notice things like that.”
“I heard you wiggled that tooth all by yourself. That takes courage.”
“You've been brushing so well that your tooth sparkled in the moonlight.”

When the tooth fairy forgot

“I'm so sorry I didn't come last night. There were wobbly teeth all over town!”
“A big wind blew me the wrong way over the rooftops, but tonight I came to you first.”
“Thank you for waiting so patiently. Here's a little extra for the wait.”

When the tooth went missing

“Don't worry, I know your tooth came out. A tiny bell rings in Fairyland whenever a tooth is lost.”
“It still counts, just as much as any tooth under a pillow.”
“Swallowed teeth are safe and sound. I've counted it in my notebook.”

The tooth fairy: a parent's guide

What to write, how much the tooth fairy leaves, and the small touches that make the night magic.

When do kids lose their first tooth?

Usually around age 6, though anywhere from about 4 to 7 is normal. The bottom front teeth tend to go first, then the top front teeth, and kids keep losing baby teeth until about age 12. The American Dental Association has charts showing the usual order.

What should I write in a tooth fairy letter?

Their name, the tooth (the first one, a front one, a wobbly one that took ages), something the fairy noticed (how well they brush, something brave or kind they did), and what the fairy left. Kids love details only the tooth fairy could know.

Write it small. Tiny handwriting, tiny paper and a sprinkle of glitter go a long way. The maker above prints a fairy-sized version.

How much does the tooth fairy leave?

It varies a lot from family to family, from a shiny coin to a few dollars, and the first tooth often gets a little more. Delta Dental runs a yearly Original Tooth Fairy Poll if you're curious about the national average. What matters most is keeping it the same for siblings.

What if the tooth fairy forgets?

It happens to every tooth fairy. A letter explaining she had a very busy night (lots of teeth in one town!) and will come back tonight fixes it, especially with a little extra for the wait. Keep a spare letter printed for emergencies.

What is a tooth fairy receipt or certificate?

A receipt is a little note that the tooth was collected, often with a check box for how sparkly it was. A certificate marks a big moment, like the first tooth. Both make good keepsakes, and you can make both above with the letter.
