First Tooth for Phoenix

If you've been with us for a while you'll know this tooth has been loose for ages and ages. Well it was finally at the stage for the string pull. You know you're there when the tooth can lay down flat in both directions.

So here's what you do, Daddy ties the string around the tooth, towards the base of the tooth. Our Daddy has mastered this technique as this is probably the dozenth tooth in our house to come out this way. Next you tie the string, dental floss in this case, to a heavy door.
Make sure the string is not too long, or it will not matter how hard you slam the door, it just will not pull the tooth.


When the string is short enough and your child really has no idea what's about to happen, tell him to slam the door and the Tooth Fairy will come.

The end result is very little blood and the cutest little holey smile you will every see.

funny. I had an aunt who would ask if she could touch it and then use her thumb to pull it out. it worked every time and I must have been a dork because I fell for it all the time. lol
