Losing a tooth playing hockey isn't uncommon, but using a hockey stick to remove a loose tooth is something that doesn't happen very often.

We've all know that feeling when a loose baby tooth is just hanging on a couple roots. Whether it gets yanked out, or your tongue starts to work against it, there's no way it's going to last.

But why not have a little fun with the whole process? If you're a young hockey player, there's no better method than tying the loose tooth up to a string before winding up a huge clapper to set it free.

All you parents out there, take notes. Pretty good form on the young Swedish hockey player, too.

Let's just hope this is the only way this little guy loses his teeth involving the sport of hockey.
