Do you remember who had his tooth pulled out with a string and a flaming coal? Tom Sawyer in the Adventures of Tom Sawyer!
In the past, parents have tied floss to their kids’ teeth, and to a door knob, and then slammed the door. The tooth generally fell out. And my son had his tooth fall out in a different way: he participated in a parade.
My son joined a parade in Hong Kong, to help raise the awareness of live organ harvest happening in China. After the parade, his loose tooth fell out while he was sound asleep after taking his long walk. Who knows, maybe doing a good deed may be another way to painlessly remove loose teeth!
Nowadays, kids have a ton of cool and creative ways to pull their loose teeth out. Watch the video and have fun!
