My son loves getting awards for sports, reflections, really whatever. He just loves the positive reinforcement for putting the work in. With little kids it is great to celebrate little victories and I find healthy, happy teeth to be one of those. Brushing teeth twice a day for a week, having no cavities at a check up, or leaving a tooth for the the tooth fairy can all be fun little ways to celebrate along the road to great dental health. So I thought, why not create an award for teeth?

Is that not the happiest little tooth ever? What little kid would not love finding that under their pillow with their reward from the tooth fairy or being presented an award for flossing diligently?
Now, I am all for simple so this is designed to be printed on a 4×6 photo card. You can give it to your kiddos just like that with a note written on the back or if you want to take it a little further, cut it out and glue a pin to the back to wear as a badge. Whatever your style, I left it versatile for many occasions and both boys and girls.
Some fun ideas to use the tooth reward badge:
- a week/month of brushing twice a day
- flossing everyday for a week/month
- brushing for 2 minutes every time
- losing their first tooth
- getting 6 year old molars
- no cavities at the dentist
- being brave at the dentist
- from the tooth fairy
- learning to use big kid toothpaste without swallowing it (we are working on this with my 3 year old)
Whatever you are working on, celebrate their success! They will love it and so will you as it keeps them motivated.
Do you have fun things you use to reward dental health? What do you leave from the tooth fairy? What would you use this reward for?

What a fun idea! Maybe I could use this to bribe my nine year old to let that stubborn tooth fall out already! (the permanent tooth is almost all the way in…it’s weird)
