General Trivia​​

• In the Pop Corn edition episode of Spin Fun Knowin' Ya, it is revealed that Toothy had a tail enlargement surgery and is wanted for impersonating a dentist in seven states, having been last seen in Ohio (this may be a reference to Nuttin' but the Tooth).
• Despite his name being Toothy, he rarely receives any teeth injuries. In fact, the only one of the two episodes to have him injure his teeth are Snow Place to Go and An Inconvenient Tooth.
• Although Toothy doesn't have much of a concrete personality, it can be best described as "Cuddles' personality, but with different interests". He's also shown to be less mischievous than Cuddles and rather emotional.
• There is a reoccurring goof with Toothy's teeth. In the early episodes his teeth would switch to the standard character's buckteeth as opposed to his huge, gapped buckteeth. This goof stopped appearing after the start of the TV series though it happens several times in Take a Hike. The goof also results in some people mistaking him for a Generic Tree Friend.

Toothy with regular teeth.

• Toothy is the 5th character to come back to life after dying in an episode, as he died in Spin Fun Knowin' Ya and appeared later in Treasure Those Idol Moments.
  • Sniffles and Cub also died before appearing again in Treasure Those Idol Moments, but Toothy is counted as the fifth since he physically appeared in the episode before Sniffles or Cub.
• He is known for his constant eye injuries.
• Ever since Eye Candy, Toothy has started suffering more eye-related injuries, as seen in Keepin’ it Reel, A Sight for Sore Eyes, Chew Said a Mouthful (Not shown), Idol Curiosity, The Carpal Tunnel of Love, and Camp Pokeneyeout. Furthermore, in Remains to be Seen, one of his eyes is missing when he comes back as a zombie.
• The First Blood DVD "Collect them All" section reveals he flosses his teeth excessively.
• Despite him being out of the four primary characters, he wasn’t featured in the first episode of the TV series.
• Toothy loves watching monster movies such as Godzilla, as seen in Wingin' It.
• The Fall Out Boy music video, The Carpal Tunnel of Love, has revealed that Toothy has an allergic reaction to bee stings.
• He is the only character to appear in a Love Bites episode and not date anyone.
• He has a pet tortoise with a shell painted with hot rod flames, as is seen in Junk in the Trunk. His tortoise is also seen in Letter Late Than Never but without the flames on its shell.
• There have been two times when Kenn Navarro took Warren Graff's role, the first being in Keepin' it Reel, where he played Toothy, and the second being in a A Hole Lotta Love, where he played Handy.
• His Season 3 alliterate sentence is: "Using a toothbrush is tantamount for twinkling teeth".
• There is a Halloween costume of Toothy with a pair of scissors impaled in his eye.
• Toothy is the only character that didn't star any TV Series episode (if not counting "Autopsy Turvy", which was in fact "Double Whammy, Part 2"). This can be considered rather strange, since Toothy is one of the four primary characters (others being Cuddles, Giggles, and Lumpy).
• Toothy has been stung by bees two times, in both The Carpal Tunnel of Love and Aw, Shucks!. He was also swarmed by a bee in the comic Don't Worry, Bee Happy.

Design

Toothy must've gotten a haircut after this.

• In Spin Fun Knowin' Ya, Toothy was seen with two stray hairs on his head. They disappeared in all future episodes, but stayed in his season 1 intro.
• Toothy's buckteeth are normally longer than the buckteeth of other characters (hence his name). In some earlier episodes, he has his normal buckteeth, but they would change between being from his normal to short like the rest of the Happy Tree Friends. This was a goof, and was corrected during the TV series.
• His appearance is similar to the Nickelodeon character SpongeBob SquarePants, as both have large gapped teeth and freckles on both sides of their faces, and they both cry a lot. He is also similar to Timmy Turner from the Nickelodeon show The Fairly OddParents due to their large front teeth, purple-pink color, and because they are both accident-prone.

Episode Statistics

• Toothy survives 16 out of the 74 episodes he appears in. If he survived his debatable deaths he would have survived in 18 episodes.
