A space maintainer is a dental appliance that is used to hold the space in a child’s mouth open after a primary tooth has been lost. It is usually placed after a baby tooth has been removed, to prevent the adult tooth from moving into that space. Space maintainers can also be used to keep a space open after an adult tooth has been removed. Space maintainers can be removable or fixed, and are custom-made to fit your child’s mouth.
Space maintainers are usually made of stainless steel or a plastic/acrylic material. They can be clear or tooth-colored. The type of space maintainer used depends on the age of the child, the location of the missing tooth, and how long the space needs to be maintained. The most common type of space maintainer is called a band and loop. It consists of a small metal band that is cemented to a tooth next to the space with a wire loop extending into the empty space. This type of space maintainer is used when there are baby teeth present on both sides of the empty space.
There are many benefits of using a space maintainer, including:
Prevents crowding of teeth
Maintains proper bite alignment
Makes room for permanent teeth
Avoids the need for orthodontic treatment
Is comfortable and easy to use
