Dean McDermott and Tori Spelling's youngest will never forget the story of when he lost his first tooth.

On Wednesday, McDermott revealed that 6-year-old son Beau lost — and accidentally swallowed — his first tooth.

"Our little man Beau lost his first tooth!! Bad news is he swallowed it while eating a corn dog!!" the actor wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of Beau showing where he lost the tooth.

"Looks like dad is going to have to go on a mining expedition when he poops," McDermott added, revealing that the same situation happened to him as a child and his dad found the tooth.

"Payback's a bitch. Ha Ha," he continued. "The tooth fairy is going to have to take an I.O.U. #toothfairy #payback #lostmyfirsttooth."

"Beau and I had a great time at the @nickelodeon studios today for the 10th anniversary of @pawpatrol we watched the special 10th anniversary episode and an episode of a new show. Can you guess what it is?? We met Rubble, Chase, and Skye!!"

McDermott continued, "We had snacks and finished the day off with a coloring competition. I think Beau crushed it. I played it safe and stayed in the lines, but Beau really went with bold colors and expressed himself and explored his space with colors. Big thanks to uncle Billy @marquecomm for having us. We love you. Happy 10th Paw Patrol !! We love you too!!! #pawpatrol #nickelodeon #rubble #skye #Chase."
