What happens to all the teeth the tooth fairy collects?
Tooth fairy?
The tooth fairy only collects baby teeth becasue they contain the magic of Childhood. These teeth become shooting stars , the kinds that Good Wishes are made on. and when you wish on one of these stars anything your heart truly desires will come to you.
Reply:Nothing...she turns the tooth into money with her magic wand. Or at least that's what I tell the kids!
Reply:I heard she uses them to build and expand her mansion made out of teeth. That' probably wouldn't smell too good though..
Reply:the tooth fairy builds her house out of it with tiny toothy chairs and tiny toothy tables.
and thats the tooth
the whole tooth
and nothing but the tooth
lmao!
Reply:Sells them to dentists, they grind them up to make false teeth.
and the patron saints of dentists are
St Apolline
St Foillan
Reply:she makes them into stars
Reply:She grinds them into that fine powder we call sugar. She uses her special fairy wand to make it taste sweet. Just because she's a fairy doesn't mean she doesn't know how to recycle responsibly.
Reply:She collects DNA from them to build her clone army.
Reply:The tooth fairies use the teeth to build their houses
Reply:Your all wrong,because they are milk teeth,she grinds them back to milk powder,it goes in babies formula to give the new babies their milk teeth. :-)
Reply:do you know when you shake a spray can of paint?that little rattle that you hear is a tooth sold to the paint company by tooth faireys all over the world
Reply:It turn into the story books.
Reply:She uses them to make dentures for old people.
Reply:I don't lie to my children - the truth is that I earned that money I am giving to them and I want them to be thankful to ME for giving it to them - not some make believe fairy. Why lie to your children? Isn't the truth good enough?
Reply:I never knew there was such a person???
Reply:she eats them..and her magical digestive system turns the teeth into cash!
Reply:she uses her magic wand and turns it into a magic denture!
Reply:She recycle's them
Reply:my little grand-daughter lost her first tooth 2 weeks ago and went hysterical because she swallowed it by mistake and she thought that the tooth fairy would not visit and give her a penny because she did not have her tooth, but i told her that the tooth fairy is a bit like santa and she knows where it is and she was thrilled to bits when she looked under her pillow and seen the money, just thought i`d share that with you all xx
Reply:Tooth fairy is mom and dad....... usually hits the trash. I saw them sneak into my room when I lost my first tooth when I was six. They left a dollar under my pillow while I pretended to sleep. Said it was tooth fairy. They lie! :O( sorry.
Reply:She eats them.
Reply:She lives with Santa and The Easter Bunny in the magical land of Get a Life!!!!!!!
Reply:I'd imagine she keeps them. But i do love some of your answers!!! Especially making starts and turning into money with magic wand!!!
Reply:I totally believe in the Tooth Fairy. I saw her when I was 6 years old. She looks exactly like Shaqelle O'Neal with hummingbird sized wings and a pretty pink dress that sparkled. I asked her the exact same question. She said she dips all the teeth she collects in platinum and gold and sales them to rappers for their grillz. p.s. She doesn't fly. She gets around on roller blades.
Reply:You are all wrong! The tooth fairy puts the teeth she collects into the mouths of babes. All teeth are recycled! My children and I always looked out for small babies when they lost teeth to see if they could spot their teeth in another baby's mouth! mad but true.
Reply:She has a giant castle made out of the teeth she has.
Reply:She or he takes them to the Tooth DNA lab and makes a clone of the person who has lost there teeth. The clones are then frozen as embryos and are being stored in the international space station until they are used to colonize a planet much like ours. Robots or androids will build the facilities and when the planet has been terraformed they will hatch the first human clones who will then be the parents of the rest of the cloned population.
This is to make insure our survival as a species and is a common practice. At least that is what the aliens are telling us.
Reply:What, exactly, does she do with all those teeth? Possibilities are:
-Building materials.
-Jewelry.
-Mineral extraction.
-Sinister medical experiments, possibly in collusion with the CIA.
-Sold on to third parties. Possibly the chinese traditional medicine market (investigations should be done into the aphrodisiac/healing properties of ground child-tooth).
Reply:hate to break it to you but she not real!!

For your hair, maybe you can style it with some gel or something and make it flip out a bit at the edges and get one of those glitter things for hair. You should also make a sparkley headband with little anntenas with teeth on those bobbley things. For the make up, maybe you can do pale shimmery blue, purple or pink. :) And get fairy wings! :D

What is the going rate for a tooth left for the tooth fairy. First tooth vs other teeth?

The Toothfairy left my daughter four glittery quarters.
Reply:the tooth fairy gives my kids a dollar. when they lost their first tooth that got 2 dollars.
Reply:1.00 for each one
Reply:a buck a tooth! always
Reply:$1.00 for first tooth and 50 cents onward from that.
Reply:I've always done $1 per tooth, but a lot of kids that I know now are getting $5 per tooth. I think that's a little ridiculous!
Reply:I personally got one dollar a tooth. The rate depends on you. I knew some kids who got $5 a tooth, but I lived in a rich town. That's insane. I always knew it was mom, but I played along. Kids will do most things for cash.
Reply:well one tooth should be worth one dollar but if its one of the front teeth its worth 5.00
Reply:Its fun for your kids to get coins that they normally do not get to see everyday. I would get a few half dollars from the bank or some 2 dollar bills, you can also get some new dollar coins that look gold. Have fun with it!

My 7 year old daughter, has just lost her 2nd tooth, and she wants to know what the tooth fairy does with all the teeth she collects? What do I tell her tomorrow morning? She's looking forward to getting a letter from the tooth fairy!!!!!
Tooth fairy?
Tell her she uses them to build roads and houses in toothfairy land. I think that's what my mom used to tell me and I believed it.
Reply:tell your daughter she makes them into new teeth
Reply:tell her shes keeps the in a special jar and she cleans them evry day so they look really pretty and once their clean she puts them back in but shes makes then very small so they are like her permanet ones i dont know
Reply:Tell her you dont know cause the tooth fairy doesnt exits, neither does Santa Clause or the Easter Bunny. That will get her off your case. Tell her if she asks again she wont get any money either.
Reply:no tell her that for every tooth the fairy collects the fairy gets to keep her wings a little longer thats why they go around the world to collect teeth and they can't buy wings with money so they leave the money for her in return and and a thank you note
problem solved
Reply:Isn't there a story that says the tooth-fairy takes the teeth to build homes/cities for all the other fairies or something. I think it's pretty plausible. Teeth are pretty sturdy after all.
Reply:She turns them into coins. So she never runs out for other little boys and girls.
Reply:Everyone knows that the Tooth Fairy has a great responsibility to all the little children of the world. Because in order for children who have lost a tooth to have a new one grow back in the Fairy must take the tooth back to Fairyland an grind it down into a fine powder. The Fairy then mixes the powder with fairy dust. This "dust" is very powerful. The Fairy then flies back to the child the very same night and as the child sleeps, the Fairy blows the "dust" up the child's nose as the child breathes inward. (Timing is everything and the Fairy is very good at it!) The "dust" gets into the bloodstream and finds its way to the very place in the mouth where the tooth came out. Then the area is "fertilized" by the "dust" and before you know it, a brand new tooth is growing there! I hope this helps. Your question reminded me of the time I lost a tooth at my Grandma's house and the next morning I woke up amazed and excited because the Fairy had left all kinds of plastic farm animals in my bed! I thought that was so cool!

Do a cute little letter with glitter on it tell her the teeth are grinded up to make fairy dust. you only get to be young once, let her live with a little magic.
Reply:She makes Dentures for all the elderly of the World!
Reply:My parents told me she used them to build her house. Kind of like marble or stone.
Good luck!
Reply:Tell her the tooth fairy collects them to give to all the new babies so they can get teeth too.
Reply:tell her that she saves them for when we go to heaven and when we get there... she with tuern all the teeth into the things we always wanted as a child....i have an interestin imagination
Reply:Aw. That's sweet! Tell her they collect them all up give them to the fairy queen. Lol.
Reply:My mum used to tell me she made a piano with them...the ivory part of the piano was made with my teeth.
Reply:omg that is so cute. none of my kids ever ask anything like that. tell her that she turns them into the money that she's leaving or that she just likes to collect them or maybe that she makes her house out of them.
Reply:tell her that she turns all the teeth into money and that is where she gets it all...
feel sorry for the person below me..must have had a depriving childhood...parents who do this to their poor children are just too lazy to do these things for their children!!!shame on you!!
Reply:Please, don't deceive her with falsehoods like the tooth fairy and Santa Claus. She'll grow up healthier if you treat her like a little adult.
These childhood fables are NOT harmless and are a really a way of degrading children.
Reply:She collects it to maybe:
1)build a house
2)faerie dust to fly
3)cleans it, then gives it to babies
4)it turns into money
or
5)say she's old enough to know the truth.Tell her that it doesn't exist.
Reply:Dear 7 year old daughter,
Thank you so much for the tooth, the whole tooth, and nothing but the tooth. Whenever I am fortunate enough to get a tooth, I keep a record of who was nice enough to leave it for me. Some day I hope to have all the teeth you don't need anymore. I have unlimited storage space because I live in another dimension. Thanks again for your tooth. I really like teeth and will always be happy to pay you something for them to show my appreciation.
Reply:When I was seven years old, I lost one of my front teeth. A few days before, I had just heard of the Tooth Fairy, and I felt awful because I didn't get paid for my first four teeth, but I decided I'd get paid for this one. That night, I had a dream about the show "The Noddy Shop" (I dont know if that still comes on), and I dreamed of a beautiful fairy there, and my brother and I were both there, being entertained. When I woke up from this beautiful dream, I discovered one dollar next to my pillow. For the next few years, I believed in the tooth fairy, even though the whole time I was asking myself why the tooth fairy had left my tooth behind. Then, about the same time I lost interest in Santa, I just decided I was too old to believe in this and went on. However, if your daugther is just seven, you shouldn't spoil it for her. I was around eleven when I stopped believing. Tell her that the tooth fairy builds her castle with all of the teeth she gets. Tell her that the tooth fairy does not have time to write because she is so busy collecting teeth for her castle. She'll believe for a few years, and then she will start losing interest, and she'll stop believing by herself. For the past few years, I have been asking my parents for five dollars whenever I lost a tooth. Soon, I'll be doing that one last time (my last baby tooth will soon be coming out). I'll still always remember the dream I had about the fairy and how I believed.
Reply:TELL HER THAT THE FAIRY TAKES THEM AND TURNS THEM INTO LITTLE TEETH FOR THE OTHER KIDS AND THAT IS WHY YOU CANT TELL WHEN YOU GET ANOTHER ONE IN
OR YOU CAN TELL HER THAT SHE TAKES THEM TO SANTA FOR THE ELVES TEETH
SHE GIVES THEM TO THE DENTIST FOR FALSE TEETH
Reply:AWW!!! tell her that she uses them to make her house.
Reply:She collects them for Father Sleep, who grinds them into the dust that we find in our eyes when we wake-up every morning. This is also the same dust that Santa sprinkles on us, to make us sleepy, if we try to stay-up and see him.
Reply:I like the idea that she grinds them into fairy dust or gives them to new babies.
Just don't listen to the person who says to tell her there is no tooth fairy, that's not fair to her. Kids deserve to have magic and fantasy as long as they can get away with it. Forcing kids to grow up too fast only damages them.
Reply:The tooth fairy takes the tooth and goes his/her shop and grindes up all the teeth and it makes a beautiful sparkling dust. And this is where fairy dust comes from.
Reply:It's a three part plan... part one, take every ones teeth, part three make lots of money.... wait I forgot part two... hum.... I'll have to get back to you on that one.
Reply:The Fairy takes the tooth back to Fairyland, puts it in a jar with your childs name on it, and then after your child has grown up and stopped losing teeth, the fairy grinds up the teeth and makes a halo for your child to wear when they get to heaven.

Tooth Fairy?
How old do you think a kid should be to stop believing in the Tooth Fairy? i was 9 when i stopped believing in her (i'm 16 now). But, my cousin is 11 and she still believes in the tooth fairy. Yesterday one of her teeth fell out and she was all excited about getting money from the tooth fairy. i still put some of my money under her pillow since my mom didn't have any on her cuz i didn't wanna ruin it for her. she was so excited. but i was just wondering what age you thought a kid should stop believing in the tooth fairy.
Tooth Fairy?
That was so sweet of you! I don't think there is a set age. My daughter is 10 and she still believes. I'm 37 and see that life is a lot more magical, fun, and exciting when one believes. As kids we are always in a hurry to grown up but once we get there it isn't that great afterall. lol. Slow down and enjoy believing as long as you can. I hope my girls do.
Reply:It's like santa and the easter bunny--they'll stop believing in their own time. My brother was 7 when he stopped believing...I was nearly 9.
Reply:don't ruin it for them. let her keep believing until she starts to ask questions, because you'd ruin the fun for her. everyone stops believing at different times, let her do it at her own rate.
and thats really nice of you to give her the money. :]
Reply:when she comes home and tells you her friends say it doesn't exist.
Reply:never. if she knows there will be money, she benefits from believing. and that was really sweet of you.
Reply:haha i bet she doesnt really believe in her she just says she is to get money outta you guys.
thats something i would do
Reply:I think every child is different. It's good to have an imagination. I was 5 when I stopped believing, but my older sister was 9.
Let your cousin figure it out herself. I doubt her belief will last much longer.
Reply:Just like with everything else they will quit when they get ready. You did the right thing by not ruining it for her especially in todays world where kids are growing up too fast it is nice to see some that still act and believe like a kid. However my oldest was about 11 and claimed she still believed in the tooth fairy she lost a tooth one day and was going on and on about getting money THEN her dad and I heard her outside with one of her friends laughing because mom and dad thought she still believed and wasn't it cool she could fake it and still get a few extra bucks. She was really surprised the next morning when she woke up and had a note instead of money that informed her that children who thought they could outsmart parents didn't get gifts from fairies.
Reply:It's not hurting anyone, let her believe as long as she wants...how refreshing, given what a lot of 11 year olds are doing these days...
Reply:Most kids seem to stop believing around 8 or 9, but I've recently seen many references to not believing, in cartoons aimed at pre-schoolers!
It was nice of you to put the money under her pillow (whether she still believes or was just pulling your leg). As long as kids are losing baby teeth I think they should keep putting their teeth under their pillow. It's just a fun thing to do (I always tried to stay awake and catch my "Tooth Fairy" but was never successful). Have fun with it while you can. We all grow up way too fast!
Reply:Well, either she still believes or she's just smart lol. I remember when I stopped believing in Santa, I also stopped getting extra presents labeled from "santa". If I had known I could have kept the charade up a little longer.
But if she really does believe, keep letting her. Kids grow up to fast anyway, so if she still has an imagination to believe in these then that’s awesome.
Good luck
Reply:WOW! You are such a sweet person for doing that. There's no harm in believing. It's so magical. :) It's ok for her to still believe. I hope my kids hang on to that innocence for a long time. I was crushed when I discovered my mom putting together my Easter basket. I was 8 and it was too soon. I wish I could have believed a bit longer.
Reply:i had brothers and my brothers told me at 7 that there wasn't a eater bunny, santa claus or a tooth fairy. it's up to the child to stop believe those things. so or later she is going to find out that there isn't a tooth fairy

Reply:Most kids seem to stop believing around 8 or 9, but I've recently seen many references to not believing, in cartoons aimed at pre-schoolers!
It was nice of you to put the money under her pillow (whether she still believes or was just pulling your leg). As long as kids are losing baby teeth I think they should keep putting their teeth under their pillow. It's just a fun thing to do (I always tried to stay awake and catch my "Tooth Fairy" but was never successful). Have fun with it while you can. We all grow up way too fast!
Reply:Well, either she still believes or she's just smart lol. I remember when I stopped believing in Santa, I also stopped getting extra presents labeled from "santa". If I had known I could have kept the charade up a little longer.
But if she really does believe, keep letting her. Kids grow up to fast anyway, so if she still has an imagination to believe in these then that’s awesome.
Good luck
Reply:WOW! You are such a sweet person for doing that. There's no harm in believing. It's so magical. :) It's ok for her to still believe. I hope my kids hang on to that innocence for a long time. I was crushed when I discovered my mom putting together my Easter basket. I was 8 and it was too soon. I wish I could have believed a bit longer.
Reply:i had brothers and my brothers told me at 7 that there wasn't a eater bunny, santa claus or a tooth fairy. it's up to the child to stop believe those things. so or later she is going to find out that there isn't a tooth fairy
