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 dentists can help you decide if this treatment is right for your child.
