A space maintainer is a metal or acrylic appliance that is custom created by a dentist.It can be fixed or removed from a child’s mouth.

Its goal is to maintain the opening necessary for the permanent tooth to erupt and occupy its proper position.

Preserving the space for the permanent teeth is a major role of the primary molars. It could be necessary to “fill” the area with an area Maintainer if the baby loses their teeth too soon.

Baby teeth are used for more than just chewing; dentists refer to them as primary or deciduous teeth. They all serve as guides for the permanent tooth that will eventually replace them. The permanent tooth loses its guidance and may drift or erupt into the mouth wrongly if a primary tooth is removed too soon. The permanent tooth cannot erupt because other teeth can also shift or slant into the opening.
