Maybe she (because, I don't know why, I've always thought of the tooth fairy as female) collects the baby teeth to make dentures for older people, which she then sells to dentists, and that's how she raises the money to pay the children?
I actually did ask my dad why the Tooth Fairy bought all those baby teeth. What did she do with them? His answer? She throws them into the sky, where they turn into stars.
I wonder what the cost of a tooth is now a days? I found a nickel. How did my parents get a nickel under my pillow and take my tooth without waking me up. Maybe the tooth fairy is real after all!

I love the idea of the tooth fairy as running a business!

I still remember the night he told me that.

Uma has always put the tooth in a container on the kitchen fridge because, she says, she doesn't want the tooth fairy to wake her up LOL
Have you seen the children’s book, Throw Your Tooth on the Roof? I ink the subtitle says something about traditions around the world.
Oh, I'll look that up, thank you!
