Tooth Fairy Payouts Hit an All-Time High

Payouts for teeth just hit an ALL-TIME HIGH, and now the Tooth Fairy can’t go out and pick up a tooth and a dozen eggs for under $10 total! Tooth Fairy payouts have hit an all-time high of $6.23 per tooth. That’s up 87 cents from last year, and $2.20 from three years ago, pre-pandemic. Kids in the South get the most at $6.59 a tooth. Kids in the Midwest get the least at just $5.63. The past 25 years, the average Tooth Fairy payout has surged 379% from $1.30 to $6.23 per tooth. At this rate, by 2048, the Tooth Fairy will be leaving $30 under the pillow for a single tooth.
