What is Space Maintenance?

Space maintenance is essential for preserving the gaps left by prematurely lost baby teeth. When a primary tooth is lost too early, it can disrupt the natural alignment of permanent teeth. This can lead to crowding, misalignment, or other orthodontic issues in the future. By providing space maintenance interventions, we can prevent these complications and guide the proper growth of permanent teeth.

 

Space maintainers can be either fixed or removable. They are custom-made by dentists or orthodontists to fit your child’s mouth comfortably and effectively maintain the necessary space.

Why Start Early?

Starting early with space maintenance is crucial because it allows for the preservation of proper tooth alignment and spacing. When a primary tooth is lost prematurely, it can lead to adjacent teeth shifting into the empty space, causing misalignment and crowding issues as permanent teeth begin to grow. By intervening early, we can prevent these complications and ensure that your child’s smile develops correctly. Plus, early intervention can help minimize the need for more extensive and costly orthodontic treatment in the future.
