mouth guards.\u00a0 The same type of mouth guard is used by children who grind their teeth at night, also known as &#8220;bruxing.&#8221;.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Space Maintainers<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is not uncommon for primary (baby) teeth to be lost prematurely as a result of trauma or decay.\u00a0 It is common for adjacent teeth to shift in order to fill the space, causing spacing and alignment issues for permanent teeth (adult teeth).\u00a0 As a placeholder until the permanent teeth are ready to emerge, space maintainers or &#8220;spacers&#8221; are inserted.\u00a0 Space maintainers can be classified into two main types:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Fixed space maintainers <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The pediatric dentist may apply a &#8220;band and loop,&#8221; a &#8220;crown and loop,&#8221; or a &#8220;distal shoe&#8221; type of spacer to fill the empty gap, depending on the position of the missing tooth and the condition of the surrounding teeth.\u00a0 There is no difference in the function of spacers; just the way they attach to the adjacent teeth varies.\u00a0 Metal is the most common material used for fixed spacers, and they are highly durable.\u00a0 A button made of acrylic may be added to reduce the esthetic impact of a missing tooth that is highly visible.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Removable space maintainers <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Young children rarely use removable spacers.\u00a0 In a manner similar to orthodontic retainers, special plastic parts are inserted into the empty slots in order to prevent adjacent teeth from drifting apart.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><b>Thumb Sucking Appliances<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is natural for most children to grow out of their thumb-sucking habit.\u00a0 Thumb sucking is not recommended for children after the age of five or six (especially vigorously).\u00a0 There are several complications associated with this procedure, including narrowed arches, impacted teeth, and misaligned teeth.\u00a0 Thumb sucking is usually stopped immediately with the &#8220;palatal crib&#8221; appliance.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pediatric dentists create and attach the &#8220;crib&#8221; to the teeth, almost like a barely visible set of braces.\u00a0 By preventing the thumb from reaching the roof of the mouth, gratification is reduced &#8211; and the habit is quickly broken.\u00a0 Various removable versions of the crib are also available, depending on the child&#8217;s age and willingness to cooperate.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Expansion Appliances<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An expansion appliance can be used to correct an overbite or a crossbite, where the upper front teeth protrude over the lower front teeth.\u00a0 With an expansion appliance, the arch is stretched and widened, so that the teeth can be realigned straight.\u00a0 A custom-made expansion appliance can be affixed to either the inside or outside of the teeth.\u00a0 An expansion appliance may be required to prepare the jaw for oral surgery in children who were born with a cleft palate.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Bionator<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An orthodontic device called a bionator may be prescribed if the pediatric dentist suspects that the child&#8217;s jaws are not growing in proportion to one another.\u00a0 In general, the bionator facilitates the erupting and aligning of the teeth by positioning the lower jaw forward. Using this dental appliance can reduce the need for extensive orthodontic treatment in the future and help to promote a natural-looking smile.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your pediatric dentist can answer any questions you may have about dental appliances.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-422a824e elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"422a824e\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-background-overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-67027126\" data-id=\"67027126\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-23437011 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"23437011\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-38c8911a\" data-id=\"38c8911a\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-28e39984 elementor-view-default elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon\" data-id=\"28e39984\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;zoomIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"icon.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon\">\n\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"icon icon-calendar1\"><\/i>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-189f7035 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"189f7035\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInDown&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Schedule a Consultation<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6e030294 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6e030294\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInDown&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Our dentists pride themselves on putting your needs first and offering <strong>FREE PARKING<\/strong> \u2014 a rarity for downtown dentists.
