Tooth Fairy Confusion

A few nights ago I was reading Hunter his bedtime story.  This particular night it was "The Berenstein Bears Go to the Dentist".  In the story Sister Bear loses her first tooth, leaves it under her pillow and receives a dime.  So we were talking about how neat it was that Sister got a new dime, and Hunter says "so...now she'll put it in her mouth and have her new tooth?!"

Apparently Hunter thought that the tooth fairy came, took your old tooth, and left you a new one to put in your mouth.  How adorable is that?!  So, after some explaining he understood that a dime is a coin, and the tooth fairy just takes your tooth and leaves you either money or a present in return...your new tooth grows in your mouth by itself.
