Norah, my 6 year old daughter, lost her first tooth several years ago. The Tooth Fairy forgot to go the bank to get change. Norah was ecstatic to receive a crisp Andrew Jackson the following morning.
Apparently, we are not alone.
A brand new study from Delta Dental the average cash payout per tooth in 2022 is $5.36!!!
I used to get a .50 cent piece!! Times have changed.
For perspective, according to the same survey, last year's average was $4.70.
This just goes to show that even the Tooth Fairy has felt the inflation bug. Check on more on this story below.
