An 18th century French fairy tale refers to a fairy that turns into a mouse, hides under pillows and knocks out teeth.
The modern tradition of the Tooth Fairy didn't become popular until the early 1900s. However, in Scotland, France, Spain, parts of Italy, and many Latin American countries the Tooth Fairy still takes the form of a mouse or rat. In Spanish, the tooth fairy is named "Ratoncito Pérez".
