The first known accounts of the idea of a Tooth Fairy originated in Arabia in the 1300s. To this day in Islamic countries, parents continue to toss lost teeth in the air, a practice dating well before the advent of Islam. However, the tradition of paying children for teeth (or rewarding children for such) is seen in the Viking culture as early as the 7th Century.
During the deeply superstitious Middle Ages, several myths surrounded the loss of teeth. It was at this time that children began leaving them under their pillow for a prize, and parents left a trail of fairy dust for the children to find in the morning.
The Tooth Fairy is truly an international myth that borrows from traditions across the world. No single culture is responsible for the myth. It grew with the trade routes throughout the world.
