Traumatic dental injuries (TDI s) can result in the premature loss of primary anterior teeth
due to an immediate avulsion, extraction later after the injury because of poor prognosis or …

Premature loss of primary teeth can result in a loss of arch length and have a negative effect
on occlusion and alignment, often increasing the need for orthodontic treatment. Use of …

Objectives The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the longevity of restorations in
the posterior primary teeth of children attending to a public paediatric dental clinic and to test …

Objectives: The premature loss of primary teeth is a potential risk factor for poor arch length
development. Adequate arch length is important to the progression of the permanent teeth …

Background Early loss of second primary molars may lead to different malocclusions, mainly
caused by the mesial migration of the first permanent molar. To prevent space loss in the …

Aim This was primarily to examine the effect of premature extraction of primary teeth (PEPT)
on subsequent malocclusion and need for orthodontic treatment in the permanent dentition …

To summarize the limitations of commonly used space maintainers (SMs) and provide an
insight into the field's technological advances to overcome them, this review was conducted …

Purpose The present study aimed at determining whether the premature loss of a deciduous
second molar results in a clinically relevant loss of space and arch length reduction …

investigations concerning space changes following premature extraction of primary molars …

Background. Premature loss of deciduous teeth can lead to loss of space and have a
