She too is a jedi little one! Yes! Jedi's do exist!!! Anywho, the tooth fairy is a jedi... A real small one. So getting in and out of houses is real simple. She uses the force to do it. She also uses the force to make you sleep too, that way she can come in and do her job and you just snore right through it.
In all seriousness The tooth fairy flunked her Jedi classes with Yoda. She was horrible with the light saber and accidently burned off Yoda's tail. It was a dark day at the temple... So anyway the councle found a use for her and that was as the tooth fairy and there you now have 'The Rest Of The Story'...

Typically, upon losing a tooth the child places the tooth under his or her pillow before going to sleep. In the morning the child finds a coin, small banknote, or a present in the place of the tooth. In reality this is done by the child's parents.
A less-common variant is for the child to place the tooth in a glass of water beside the bed. Again, in the morning, the tooth is replaced with a coin.
The primary useful purpose of the tooth-fairy myth is probably to give children a small reward and something to look forward to when they lose a tooth, a process which they might otherwise find worrisome. It is fun for both parent and child. It also gives children a reason to give up a part of themselves that they may have grown attached to.
Some believe that other useful purposes include giving children a sense of faith in things unseen, believing in the incorporeal, and helping them understand the difference between the real and the imaginary.
The most commonly accepted belief by academics is the fairy's development from the tooth mouse, depicted in an 18th century French language fairy tale. In "La Bonne Petite Souris," a mouse changes into a fairy to help a good Queen defeat an evil King by hiding under his pillow to torment him and knocking out all his teeth. Also, in Europe, baby teeth used to be fed to rodents and other animals in the hopes of getting sharper, more rodent-like, teeth in the future

Every tooth fairy has the power to ascertain the very moment that a tooth falls out and by osmosis appears at the right spot at the best possible time, and places a gentle kiss on the spot where the tooth used to be. If you watch very very carefully, you'll see her in the moment just before sleep, and hear her on the evening breeze.

She has a magic wand, thats how she gets in and out of the houses and if the little one ask what she do with all the teeth tell the little one that she gives them to the dentist so he can give them to poor people who do have teeth or that hw he makes false teeth.

Magical powers and some pixie dust makes them go through walls. The magical pixie dusts makes everyone in the house sleep soundly so no one will see her come in.
I'm sure you could think of something more enchanting.

Mom(or dad) lets her in...that's why sometimes you see mom just leaving the bedroom after the tooh fairy's visit.
