ABSTRACT
Aesthetic rehabilitation in pediatric dentistry restores the natural appearance and function of children's primary teeth. Early intervention is crucial to prevent the emotional, social, and developmental issues caused by missing anterior teeth, which are important for speech and chewing. The absence of these teeth can lead to misalignment, chewing difficulties, and social withdrawal. Treatments such as space maintainers, composite resin bonding, stainless steel crowns, and removable partial dentures are used based on the child's specific needs. This article describes a case where a child with missing maxillary anterior teeth was treated with a space maintainer.
Keywords: Aesthetic rehabilitation, pediatric dentistry, primary anterior teeth, space maintainers.
