Space maintainers are dental appliances used to preserve the space in the mouth where one or more primary (baby) teeth have been lost prematurely due to trauma or disease. Functionally, these devices help ensure that the permanent teeth can grow into the correct position and make proper contact with the other teeth. They are an important part of maintaining good dental health and alignment after Orthodontic treatment or extraction

Spring Hawley Retainer
Spring Hawley Retainers are made with a wire spring in the center that allows them to apply pressure to the teeth while being worn. This makes spring retainers effective for both correcting tooth crowding and maintaining the proper spacing of teeth after orthodontic treatment.
Standard Begg Retainer
Standard Begg Retainers are used when final adjustments to the bite and position of the teeth are necessary.
TPA
A lingual arch space maintainer or TPA is a dental appliance that is placed around the molars to prevent them from moving forward and blocking the space for permanent teeth that are yet to come in.
