It worked perfectly for my context. I don't think there is a true Russian equivalent. Russian children don't get anything for lost teeth.
Sabina, thank you for your comment. I loved it. It was so funny I nearly choked right on the air.

Фея молочного зуба


Explanation:
Фильм походе вот этот:
http://us.imdb.com/ImageView?u=http://posters.imdb.com/Cover...

Значит так Tooth Fairy приходят по ночам к детям, которые положили свой выпавший молочный зуб под подушку и меняет зуб на монетку.

В фильме мальчик поймал эту фею за ее работой и из этого вышли большие неприятности.
