Maintain Proper Tooth Alignment Space Maintainers In Edmonton
Smile Solutions Dental is Edmonton’s trusted dental clinic for pediatric care. We help preserve your child’s smile by using space maintainers to keep teeth properly aligned as they grow.
What Are Space Maintainers and Why Are They Important?
Space maintainers are small dental devices used when a child loses a baby tooth earlier than expected. These appliances hold the empty space open, preventing nearby teeth from shifting into the gap. If space is not preserved, permanent teeth may erupt in the wrong position, leading to bite issues, crowding, or the need for complex orthodontic treatment later on.
At our Edmonton dental clinic, our team ensures the space maintainer fits comfortably and supports natural dental development. The procedure is quick, non-invasive, and plays a crucial role in maintaining your child’s future oral health.
The Benefits of Choosing Our Space Maintainers
Guides Permanent Teeth into Place
Space maintainers hold the gap for the emerging adult tooth, ensuring proper alignment as your child grows.
Prevents Crowding and Misalignment
By maintaining spacing, they help avoid future complications like overlapping or crooked teeth.
Reduces Need for Braces Later On
Proactive treatment now may reduce or eliminate the need for extensive orthodontic work in the future.
Simple and Non-Invasive
Fitting a space maintainer is a quick, painless process with no drilling or major dental work involved.

What is a space maintainer and when is it needed?
A space maintainer is a dental device used when a child loses a baby tooth early. It holds the space open to ensure the permanent tooth can grow in properly.
Are space maintainers painful or uncomfortable?
Not at all. Our Edmonton dentist ensures the appliance fits comfortably. Most children adjust to it quickly, with minimal awareness after a few days.
How long does a child wear a space maintainer?
The maintainer stays in place until the adult tooth begins to erupt. Our dental clinic monitors the progress regularly and removes it at the right time.
What types of space maintainers are available?
There are fixed and removable types. Our dentist will recommend the best option based on your child’s age, tooth location, and needs.
How do I take care of my child’s space maintainer?
Avoid sticky foods and ensure good oral hygiene. Our Edmonton clinic provides complete care instructions and regular follow-ups.
