A threat for surprise retribution at a later date for an earlier transgression that usually results in the instigator missing teeth. Similar threats include "watch your back" or "you'll get yours". The notion of the saying is that retribution will happen suddenly when the instigator least expects it, such as sleeping and their teeth are placed under their pillow. The saying is otherwise used broadly to mean any level of revenge.
Someone does another person wrong or victimizes them, the victim may say "Watch yourself! You're gonna get a visit from the tooth fairy!"
Or used to dispel concern by others that retribution is going to be made "They're gonna see the tooth fairy, don't worry about it."

Get the Reverse tooth fairy mug.Da "unicorns and rainbows" kiddie-version of da history of da first colonists' settling in da "new world", which leaves out much of da "grim" realities of their actual "adventures", such as lack of preparedness, unwise habits, mistreating da indigenous residents, etc.
Da Salem witch-trials could perhaps be given da "grim grins" title of "Pilgrimm's Fairy Tales", as well, in dat da absurdly-preposterous "stories" dat were told about said trials' unfortunate accused were merely "fairy tale" --- i.e., largely fanciful and imaginary --- statements dat were made by da plaintiffs who were of Puritan lineage, da same as da original travelers on da "named for what comes after April showers" ship.
