Visa’s annual Tooth Fairy survey shows that American children are receiving an average of $3.40 per lost tooth this year, which is down 8% from last year.
The Tooth Fairy spoiled kids in the West the most, leaving an average of $3.60 per tooth. Kids in the South and Northeast will each receive an average of about $3.50. In the Midwest kids receive an average of $3.10, where the Tooth Fairy is the most thrifty (Inside Dentistry, October 2014, p. 18).
The Tooth Fairy was VERY thrifty towards my kids as they usually received $0.50, maybe $1.
