Losing teeth can be alarming, but the promise of a visit from the Tooth Fairy can make it more of an exciting event. Below are some suggestions from a children\u2019s dentist in Franklin Park to make the Tooth Fairy\u2019s arrival even more enjoyable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Leave a Little Note<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Leaving a little bit of money under the pillow is a Tooth Fairy staple, but an extra souvenir could make it truly special. Parents can write up a little note for the child thanking them for the tooth and complimenting them for taking good care of it. This can help encourage them to continue brushing and flossing their teeth properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Give Them a Special Pillow or Dish<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The tricky part of the traditional Tooth Fairy routine is sneaking into the child\u2019s room and slipping their reward under the pillow without waking them up. A tooth fairy pillow or bowl to place the tooth in can make things easier for the parents; the child can hang it on the doorknob or on a beside table where it can be easily accessed. To add a fun personal touch, particularly artistic children can make their own pillow or bowl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Add Some Tooth-Friendly Gifts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to money, the Tooth Fairy can leave a few additional gifts that help impress the importance of good oral hygiene \u2013 for example, a new toothbrush or some special toothpaste. Another idea is a bright-smile calendar that gives the child a way to record each time they brush their teeth, floss, or visit the dentist. This lets parents know that their children are definitely learning the right habits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Losing the baby teeth is an exciting milestone in a child\u2019s development, and good Tooth Fairy traditions like the ones listed above can help them understand why. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.granddentalfranklinpark.com\/childrens-dentistry.html\">children\u2019s dentist<\/a> might have a few other suggestions about what families can do to prepare for a Tooth Fairy visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Grand Dental \u2013 Franklin Park is in a unique position to help children of all ages keep their smiles healthy and that\u2019s especially true for those who have started losing their baby teeth.
