A space maintainer is a dental device used in pediatric dentistry to preserve the space left by a prematurely lost primary tooth. Its purpose is to prevent adjacent teeth from shifting into the empty space, which can lead to crowding or misalignment of the permanent teeth. Space maintainers can be either fixed or removable and are custom-made to fit the child's mouth. Common types include band-and-loop, lingual arch, and distal shoe appliances. Maintaining proper space helps ensure normal eruption and alignment of permanent teeth, reducing the need for future orthodontic treatment. Regular dental check-ups are essential to monitor the appliance and overall oral health. Once the permanent tooth begins to erupt, the space maintainer is removed to allow natural tooth development. dental clinic in Nolambur, dentist in Nolambur, best dental clinic in Nolambur, best dentist in Nolambur, root canal treatment in Nolambur, dental crowns and bridges in Nolambur, wisdom tooth removal in Nolambur, dental brackets and wires in Nolambur, denture treatment in Nolambur, near me, dental clinic in Mogappair, dentist in Mogappair, best dental clinic in Mogappair, best dentist in Mogappair, root canal treatment in Mogappair, dental crowns and bridges in Mogappair, wisdom tooth removal in Mogappair, dental brackets and wires in Mogappair, denture treatment in Mogappair, near me, best kids dental clinic in nolambur, best kids dental clinic in mogappair
