The custom of leaving monetary gifts after teeth are lost varies grossly in amount left and depends entirely on socioeconomic status of the homeowner.

Recent surveys published in the American Dental Association’s monthly publication, “Ortho” shows that the average value received by children for deciduous teeth is US$1.00/tooth, and ranges from US$0.25 to US$20.00. The largest gift was reported by a responder in Manhattan for a gift in the amount of US$1.2 million and included a sliding scale for each subsequent tooth lost.
