I have trained and worked as a Tooth Fairy my whole lifelong dental career. Almost a decade ago I established my cyber home, titled Toothfairycyberspace, where you can find me online.

More recently I have become Twitter's Tooth Fairy @toothfairycyber, who flutters and flies around the Twittersphere and tweets about lost teeth, dental information, and fairy fun stuff, too.

The Tooth Fairy is important because she traditionally helps to mark major developmental stages in life, starting with the passage from infancy to childhood, pre-teen and teen years. She often appears as a female winged sprite but her *magic* disappears if she is seen.

The Tooth Fairy now often prefers to recycle baby teeth into fine sparkly fairy dust. One day the Tooth Fairy could save a child's life, since it has recently been discovered that baby teeth have stem cells!
