Space maintainers for a five year old
Baby teeth and space maintainers
My five year old daughter knocked out two of her front teeth. She was running in the play area in the park and fell on the slide. We took her to the doctor and she is okay now but two of her front teeth fell out.
They were not due to come out yet. So I was wondering if she should have a space maintainer. Should I talk to a dentist about one or is it necessary? My mom says that is just a waste of money since she will be getting her adult teeth in. However I am worried about them coming in correctly now. Well a space maintainer keep her teeth from coming in crooked?
