Purpose is to emphasize the danger and necessity for the treatment of clinical complications from dental trauma without appropriate reimplantation and applied space maintainer. Two clinical cases with dental trauma without appropriate reimplatation and used space maintainer resulting in complications of the dental arch were treated with different orthodontic techniques. The first clinical case ...

Background: Many parents think that primary teeth are not important because they will be replaced by permanent teeth. This view needs to straightened out even though temporary, have an function for children. Space maintainer is a tool functions maintain space due premature loss of so can erupt in their place.

The chairside-fabricated distal shoe appliance, with a stainless steel crown as the retainer, is an efficacious and cost-effective appliance for guiding the unerupted permanent first molar into position after premature loss or extraction of the second primary molar. The fabrication technique is illustrated in this case report and data is presented on the success rate of the appliance.
