Space Maintainers

When a child loses a baby tooth earlier than expected, either due to decay, injury, or extraction, it can create problems for future tooth alignment. That’s where space maintainers come in. These small but important dental devices preserve the gap left by the lost tooth, allowing permanent teeth to erupt in the correct position. At Savani Dental Clinic, we specialize in providing space maintainers for kids in Surat, ensuring healthy and natural dental development for your child.

Why Early Tooth Loss Needs Attention

Many parents assume that baby teeth are temporary and don’t require much attention. But losing them too early can disrupt your child’s entire bite pattern.

Without a space maintainer:

• Nearby or opposite teeth can drift into the empty space
• The eruption path of the permanent tooth can get blocked because of tilting adjacent teeth
• Your child may require longer orthodontic treatments later on
  Space maintainers are a simple yet effective solution to prevent these long-term complications.

Types of Space Maintainers

We offer both fixed and removable space maintainers depending on your child’s age, dental needs, and level of cooperation.

1. Fixed Space Maintainers

These are cemented to adjacent teeth and stay in place until the permanent tooth begins to erupt. They’re ideal for younger children and are more tamper-proof.

2. Removable Space Maintainers

Designed like a retainer, these are best suited for older children who can manage taking them out and wearing them responsibly.

Is a Space Maintainer Right for Your Child?

Your child may need a space maintainer if:

• A baby tooth is lost early
• There’s delayed eruption of a permanent tooth
• Orthodontic space needs to be preserved after treatment
  During a consultation, our dental team will evaluate your child’s mouth and recommend the best option to support healthy child teeth alignment.
