What is A Tooth Fairy Tale about?

A trailer for A Tooth Fairy Tale was released by Shout! Kids on March 24. It shows a young fairy, Van, trying to learn the ways of being in his profession of collecting teeth from humans and turning them into fairy dust.

Although his job is specific, Van is curious about what happens in the goblin mines. This is because it is there that the gold coins that are kept under a child's bed after they lose their tooth come from.

As highlighted in the trailer, while fulfilling his task one day, Van encounters a goblin named Gemma. A few seconds later, he is shown interacting with her, and she agrees to take him to the goblin world while being disguised.

The trailer also introduces a troll named Rupee who is Van's friend. It also introduces a deadly spider who, along with his fellow arachnid friends, attacks Van and his friends. The last few seconds of the trailer see Van and Gemma struggling to fight off the spiders.

With that being said, when the trailer for the film was released, a synopsis was also provided, which reads:

"Welcome to a kingdom of magic and mystery! Van is a teenage tooth fairy with a rebellious streak who wishes to explore life beyond the boundaries of his secluded civilization and rigid traditions.

"When he encounters Rupee, the world's cutest troll, and Gemma, a daring goblin girl with a knack for science, the three tiny creatures embark on an adventure to unite their separate kingdoms while avoiding malicious encroaching spiders."
