Brief Summary:
To assess the clinical efficacy of prefabricated space maintainers compared to conventional ones, focusing on preserving the integrity of each component of bands and loops, avoidance of soft tissue impingement as well as preservation of arch dimensions.
Detailed Description:
Management of the developing occlusion lies firmly within the scope of pediatric dentistry, therefore protection of dental arch integrity and inter-arch relations in the premature loss of teeth can be guaranteed by placing space maintainers. Conventional appliances are used successfully as space maintainers, although they have some disadvantages.The need for at least two visits to delivery, therefore cannot be planned in patients under general anesthesia. Fabrication of conventional and loop requires an alginate impression and laboratory work.
Prefabricated band and loop devices have been introduced to dentistry in recent times. They can possibly overcome most of the previously mentioned limitations of conventional space maintainers. The prefabricated band and loop space maintainer is adjusted and applied in one visit and therefore can be planned in patients under general anesthesia. Other advantages include less time, more patient and parent satisfaction, and no laboratory work
