Q

Space maintainer: Upper primary canine treatment? (3)

A
  • It is rare
  • Band-loop or crown-loop
  • We try to avoid the deviation of the midline
24
Q

Space maintainer: Upper primary canine loss? (2)

A
  • Normally does not produce loss of arch length as in primary
    dentition there normally is overbite.
  • The lower arch acts as a space maintainer
25
Q

Space maintainer: Upper primary canine in mixed dentition before the
eruption of the lateral incisor? (2)

A
- Removable space
maintainer
- It allows to be cut to
guide the eruption of the
lateral incisor
26
Q

Space maintainer: Upper primary canine in mixed dentition after the
eruption of the lateral incisor? (4)

A
  • Extraction of the contralateral canine
  • It generally does not need maintainer
  • In correct occlusion the lower arch acts as a
    space maintainer
  • It may be associated to a malocclusion
27
Q

Space maintainer: primary canine removal of space maintainers? (2)

A
  • When the canines start their eruption

* When the space maintainer is no longer needed

28
Q

Space maintainer: first primary molar etiology? (6)

A
  • Ectopic eruption of the permanent canine
  • Caries
  • Trauma
  • Occlusal trauma
  • Lack of space
  • Others
29
Q

Space maintainer: first primary molar treatment aims? (4)

A

• Before there is space loss: Space maintainer
• After there is space loss
- Recuperate the space lost
- Maintain the space that has been recuperated

30
Q

Space maintainer: first primary molar diagnosis? (6)

A
• Medical and dental charts
• Exploration
• Panoramic x-ray
• Occlusion analysis
• Space analysis
• Determine if there is mesialization of
the 6
31
Q

Space maintainer: first primary molar clinical presentations - loss before the 1M has intercuspidation treatment? (4)

A

‣ It is always necessary space maintainer
‣ Band and loop or crown and loop
‣ After the 1M have intercuspidation,
change for bilateral space maintainer
‣ If there is loss of space already we may
place a space recuperator

32
Q

Space maintainer: first primary molar clinical presentations? (2)

A
  1. Loss before the 1M has intercuspidation

2. Loss after the 1M has intercuspidation

33
Q

Space maintainer: first primary molar clinical presentations - loss after the 1M has intercuspidation situations? (3)

A

‣ Class I molar relationship
‣ Cusp-cusp relationship End-to-end)
‣ Class II or III molar relationship

34
Q

Space maintainer: first primary molar clinical presentations - loss after the 1M has intercuspidation class I? (2)

A
  • does not need maintainer.

- Follow-ups every 6 months

35
Q

Space maintainer: first primary molar clinical presentations - loss after the 1M has intercuspidation cusp-cups?

A

It always needs maintainer. Uni or bilateral

36
Q

Space maintainer: first primary molar clinical presentations - loss after the 1M has intercuspidation class II or III/ great space loss?

A

Orthodontic evaluation

37
Q

Space maintainer: second primary molar clinical presentations?

A
  • Loss before the 1M has erupted

- Loss after the 1M has erupted

38
Q

Space maintainer: second primary molar loss before the 1M has erupted types? (2)

A

‣ 1M intraosseous

‣ 1M subgingival

39
Q

Space maintainer: second primary molar loss after the 1M has erupted types? (2)

A

‣ Before intercuspidation

‣ After intercuspidation

40
Q

Space maintainer: second primary molar loss before the 1M has erupted - treatment aims? (2)

A
  1. Maintain space for second premolar

2. Guide the 1M eruption

41
Q

Space maintainer: second primary molar loss before the 1M has erupted - intraosseous?

A

Follow-ups until the molar is subgingival There is

a protuberance in the gingiva)

42
Q

Space maintainer: second primary molar loss before the 1M has erupted - subgingival? (2)

A
  • Proprioceptive maintainer

* Classically it was used a subgingival maintainer

43
Q

Space maintainer: second primary molar proprioceptive maintainer? (2)

A

• It sends a constant pressure on the gingiva
to the periodontal ligament of the tooth
germ
• The tooth germ is guided to the zone where
the pressure is applied

44
Q

Space maintainer: second primary molar proprioceptive maintainer technique? (3)

A
  1. calibrated X-ray with metallic wickerwork
    2.The pressure of the maintainer must be done on the periodontal
    ligament, 1mm away of the mesial wall of the tooth germ
    3.The pressure is done by a curvature in the wire of the loop
45
Q

Space maintainer: second primary molar proprioceptive maintainer types?

A
  • Lower arch

- Upper arch

46
Q

Space maintainer: second primary molar proprioceptive maintainer lower arch (3)

A

• Proprioceptive crown and loop: If the first primary molar has a good
dentalveolar support
• Splint bar: If the teeth do not have good support we splint several teeth
together
• Removable space maintainer: When there is no first primary molar. It requires
follow ups. The is more space loss than with fixed maintainers
