Usually your child will start losing their primary teeth between ages 6 and 7. But if they lose a tooth too soon due to trauma or decay, there may be problems when their adult teeth start to erupt. If your child has lost a tooth and you think the permanent tooth might not be ready to come in, call Young Smiles at 920-652-1100 for an appointment for a space maintainer in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, with Dr. Clint Rau or Dr. Thao T. Nguyen. Our pediatric and sedation dentists can help you decide if this treatment is right for your child.
