Trivia
- On the front cover of Arthur's Tooth on VHS and DVD, Arthur was illustrated to have lost a top incisor like the book, instead of a bottom one like in the cartoon. The illustration on the cover is also considered a "spoiler", in contrast to the book cover where Arthur's tooth was only about to fall out.
- This is one of the few episodes where the characters' teeth are visible, while the majority of other episodes do not have the teeth visible.
- The Flighty Fluoride Scour Rangers are a parody of the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers.
Differences from the book
- This story took place in Mr. Ratburn's third grade; although in the book, it was a flashback event that took place in Mr. Marco's second grade, and that Arthur would happen to have already lost a tooth when starting third grade.
- The kids all lost a bottom incisor; although in the book, Arthur and some kids lost a top incisor, while some lost a bottom incisor.
- Francine's "tooth fairy" game in the book involves her twirling around and whoever she touches loses a tooth, and whoever loses the most teeth wins. In the TV version, she says whoever she hits with a soccer ball loses a tooth.
- The "literal" tooth fairy was shown in the book; although she didn't actually appear in the cartoon until D.W. Tricks the Tooth Fairy.
- In the episode Arthur says he is 8 years old but in the book he says he is 7 years old.
- In the episode Dr. Sozio says he didn't loose his first baby tooth until he was nearly 9 but in the book he says that he was 8 before he lost his first baby tooth.
- In the episode Arthur gave his tooth to Francine after losing it, in the the book he kept it.
- In the episode, no one wants to play tooth fairy and follow Arthur to play softball. In the book, everyone but Arthur played and only Arthur left to play softball.
Goofs
- When Arthur smiles to show the missing tooth, Buster is wearing Arthur's clothes in the background.
- Jean Charles Fink's last name was spelled incorrectly during the title card of the episode.
