It is believed that this tradition was inspired by the tale of the\ntooth-gathering mouse, who would take the tooth from underneath a child\u2019s\npillow and replace it with a small gift. Over 100 years later, this practice\nserves as a great way to encourage your child to take proper care of their\nteeth while simultaneously getting them excited about growing their new smile.\nIf your child recently lost a tooth, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dfwpediatricdentistry.com\/preventive-dentistry.html\">pediatric\ndentist in Willow Park<\/a> is sharing four fun ways to welcome the tooth fairy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#1. A Receipt\nfor Your Child\u2019s Tooth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To document the occasion, and create a little keepsake\nfor later, purchase a receipt pad or download a themed version on the internet.\nWrite your child\u2019s name, the date, a brief description of the tooth, and a\nsmall encouraging note. Something as simple as \u201cThanks for this lovely tooth!\u201d\nor \u201cKeep up the good work!\u201d can go a long way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#2. Create a\nTooth Fairy Dish<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Quietly sneaking in and out of your child\u2019s room is\nhard enough. However, add on the fact that you need to carefully complete the\nunder-the-pillow trick without waking them is downright anxiety-inducing.\nInstead, have an arts and crafts day where you create a special dish for the Tooth\nFairy to collect their tooth. That way, they can express their creativity and\nyou can save yourself the hassle of searching for their tooth in a pillow!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#3. Opt for a\nKeepsake Book<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another crafty way to welcome the Tooth Fairy is with\na keepsake book. Allow your child to choose a notebook from your local store\nand spend the afternoon customizing it with their name and festive decorations.\nOnce the Tooth Fairy visits, add a little note that encourages them to keep brushing\nand flossing or shares a fun fact about their teeth!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#4. A\nBright-Smile Calendar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gifts from the Tooth Fairy are a great opportunity to entice\nyour child to take their oral hygiene routine seriously. In addition to a small\ngift, add a bright-smile calendar to their earnings, which will record each\ntime they brush, floss, or visit the dentist. Not only will it help your child\nvisualize their progress, but it will also instill good oral habits for years\nto come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Losing primary or \u201cbaby\u201d teeth is an exciting milestone for your\nchild. To encourage good dental care and get them excited for the next stage of\ntheir life, use one of the above fun ways to welcome the Tooth Fairy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the\nAuthor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After obtaining his undergraduate degree from Texas\nA&amp;M University, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dfwpediatricdentistry.com\/meet-dr-robert-stroud.html\">Dr. Robert\nCasey Stroud<\/a> earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery at Baylor College\nof Dentistry.
