What role does the tooth fairy play in teaching children oral hygiene habits?

A new study by Delta Dental surveyed parents who “allow” the tooth fairy into their homes, had a pleasant surprise that the tooth fairy’s visit inspires kids to create and maintain good oral hygiene habits.

The same study found 80% of households with children receive visits from the tooth fairy, and the average payout by the fairy for a tooth is $4.03, up 9% compared to last year.

This a study and story we are happy to report!
