Treehouse Kids Dentist provides limited orthodontics including space maintenance for children.

If your child’s tooth has come out too soon for a variety of reasons, from decay to an accident, it’s vital to maintain the space to prevent future space loss and dental problems when permanent teeth begin to come in. Without the use of a space maintainer, the teeth that surround the open space can shift, impeding the permanent tooth’s eruption. When this happens, the need for orthodontic treatment may become more necessary in the future.
