  • Title: [Space maintenance following the premature loss of temporary teeth].
    Author: Liegeois F, Limme M.
    Journal: Rev Belge Med Dent (1984); 1992; 47(1):9-22. PubMed ID: 1410703.
    Abstract:
    Despite contemporary techniques, we still don't have the ability of saving all deciduous teeth in their place on the dental arch until the time of physiological loss. A premature loss of temporary teeth interferes with the harmony of the adult dentition. The principal consequence of this premature loss is crowding, caused by migration of the adjacent teeth. This article ames to guide our policies in the decision making process whether or not maintaining space, in causes of premature loss of one or more deciduous teeth.
