These are the procedures I remember. Some of them work better than others and some you should NOT try at all.
1. Pliers, needlenose or regular. Have a grown-up (but NOT an uncle) grab the tooth with the pliers and wiggle it til it comes out. This is pretty easy and does not hurt UNLESS somebody grabs the tooth way too hard and crushes it before it releases.
2. String. Tie some string around the tooth and wiggle it around til it comes out. You can wiggle it yourself or let somebody else do it (not an uncle). Also you can tie the string to a doorknob and slam the door or tie it to a brick and throw it as far as you can or to an arrow and shoot it as far as you can (away from houses because that arrow really will go far when that tooth releases). Do NOT tie it to an animal. Animals can be unpredictable and WILL NOT stop when you want them to.
3. Hammer and flathead screwdriver. Put the tip of the screwdriver at the bottom of the tooth (ABOVE THE GUMS) and hit the end of the screwdriver with a hammer. Do NOT use a phillips screwdriver to do this! You will regret it! Also do NOT do this with front teeth because the screwdriver will keep going when that tooth releases.
4. Fist. Punches to the mouth can release teeth, but this is NOT recommended. Punches are unpredictable and cannot focus on specific teeth. This should be used by accident only.
These are the ones I remember. Also I remember a lot of blood is involved. For kids, tooth faries are good to make them believe that tooth has to come out.
