    ( ) the tooth has previously been redeemed for cash
    ( ) the tooth did not originally belong to you
    ( ) the tooth fairy does not process fingernails
    ( ) your request has been forwarded to the Nerve Ending Fairy for
    appropriate action

    fairy
    ( ) you are age 12 or older at the time your request was received
    ( ) the tooth is still in your mouth
    ( ) the tooth was guarded by a vicious fairy-eating dog at the time of our
    visit
    ( ) no nightlight was on at the time of our visit
    ( ) the snacks provided for the tooth fairy were not satisfactory, or were
    missing

    Sincerely,

    The Tooth Fairy
