	"The Tooth Fairy", when applied to the person who collects the teeth of Discworld children, is something of a misnomer. Unlike [[Death]], who appears for everyone, the Tooth Fairy is more like a franchise. Therefore it should not be "The" Tooth Fairy, but "a" tooth fairy, and they aren't actually fairies either. While at work they function as [[Supernatural Entities]], being invisible to adult people.
