Space Maintainers

Your child’s primary teeth are just as important as their adult teeth. If a primary, or baby, tooth is lost before the permanent tooth is ready to come in, it can affect your child’s bite in the future. In cases such as this, our pediatric dentist, Dr. J. Cam West, may suggest using a space maintainer in Mesa, Arizona, to preserve your child’s alignment. If your child has lost a tooth prematurely, call Desert Sun Pediatric Dentistry today at 480-275-5099.
