Which animal has the largest tooth in the entire animal kingdom? The first animal that might come to mind is perhaps a tiger or lion, and they do indeed have an impressively and intimidating set of teeth! But the animal that hands-down wins this category may surprise you: it is the beautiful, mysterious “Unicorn of the Sea”: the Narwhal!

Toothbrushes for children have become ‘luxury’ item for some families?
Dr Camilla Kingdon, president of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, said the cost of living crisis was exacerbating the problem of children with rotten teeth. The commonest reason for a child having a general anaesthetic in this country is dental extractions. That’s a terrible admission of failure.” She added: “It reflects diet and it reflects a family’s ability to buy a toothbrush and toothpaste, because when you’re struggling to feed your family, that becomes a luxury item?
I looked on Lidle's site and you can by a tooth brush for about 24.5p. Please keep brushing kids teeth!

There are other tooth fairys in the world belive it or not:

First the mice:
Perez the Little Mouse is the Spanish. As is traditional when a child loses a tooth it is customary for the child to place it under the pillow, so that Pérez will exchange it for a small payment or gift.
In Italy, the Tooth Fairy (Fatina dei denti) is also often replaced by a small mouse, named Topolino.
In France and French-speaking Belgium, this character is called La Petite Souris (The Little Mouse).

Then Angels:
In Catalonia, its Els Angelets (little angels) and as in the other countries, the tooth is placed under the pillow in exchange of a coin or a little token.

Hold on to your hats as it gets a bit wierd from here on in!

In Japan, lost upper teeth must be thrown straight down to the ground and lower teeth straight up into the air; the idea is that incoming teeth will grow in straight.

In Korea, a common practice was to throw both upper and lower teeth on the roof. It is said that if the magpie finds a tooth on the roof, it will bring good luck.

In Middle Eastern countries including Iraq, Jordan, Egypt and Sudan, the tooth is simply thrown up to the sun

In Mali, children throw baby teeth into the chicken coop in order to receive a chicken the following day.

So be grateful to the tooth fairy for making life easy in UK!

As a UK Dentist I love the tooth fairy, although it would appear that she originates from the USA! She (or he) is a relatively new arrival to our folklore. There is an early reference to the tooth fairy in the Household Tips section of a a 1908 edition of the Chicago Tribune.
The idea is that when a child loses a baby tooth it is popped under the child’s pillow at bedtime for the fairy to collect and leave a shiny coin in its place. I think folding money or credit card is needed now!
What form the this fairy takes or looks like differs greatly between people. A study back in 1984 found that 74% of people thought the fairy was female, 12% thought neither male or female and 8% thought either male or female. Confused you will be as we look at other countries approach to the missing milk tooth mystery?

What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is a replacement tooth fixed when the person is missing all of the original tooth.
It is probably easier if I show you one that we did earlier this year on a back molar tooth. Thanks Donna for permission to share your images.
The first picture shows the crown or top of the implant. The second shows the shadow of the wholle implant on an x-ray.
Donna is very happy with her tooth and would have really hated the gap.
Please let me know if you would like mor information.
