Short‐term efficacy of vacuum‐formed maintainer for deciduous second molar space maintenance in the mixed dentition: A single‐centre, randomized controlled clinical trial

Abstract: Objective To compare the efficacy of vacuum‐formed and banded space maintainers for deciduous second molar space maintenance during the mixed dentition. Setting and Sample Population The study sample comprised thirty children in the mixed dentition (age range, 5.9 to 9.8 years) with early loss of at least one deciduous second molar. Methods This was a parallel‐group, randomized, active‐controlled clinical trial. Patients were randomly allocated to space maintenance performed with vacuum‐formed or banded space … Show more

“…Therefore, space maintainers are often needed in this situation, prior to the emergence of the permanent first molar. 14 If the first molar has not yet begun to erupt, soft-tissue lasers may be used to make a tiny incision for the insertion of a distal shoe, or to expose sufficient gingiva to permit attachment/band insertion around it after it has begun to emerge.…”
