I use this tune (Ta-ra-ra) for my kiddos who have lost a tooth:

Ta-ra-ra-boom-de-aye

I lost my tooth today.

When I went out to play,

It just fell out that way.

Ta-ra-ra-boom-de-aye

I lost my tooth today.

Now I would like to say.

Hip-hip-hip-hip-hooray!

Also... To the tune of My Boyfriend's Back:

My tooth is loose and it's givin' me some trouble,

Hey na, Hey na, my tooth is loose.

Pull it now and it will come out on the double.

He na, Hey na, my tooth is loose.

Yeah! It really is a'wigglin'

Yeah! A wigglin' and a jigglin'

My tooth is loose. My tooth is loose. Wah-oo. Wah-oo.

My tooth is loose. My tooth is loose. Wah-oo.

Wait and see! My tooth.
