23- Six Keys to Managing Mixed Dentition Successfully - Part 2

Show notes

Explore the keys to managing malocclusion in mixed dentition, focusing on:

• Preserving leeway space: Maintain space by retaining second primary molars, using a lingual arch when necessary.
• Palpating unerupted canines: Essential between ages 10-12 to guide development and address discrepancies early.
• Judicious extractions: Extract primary teeth only when they block eruption, ensuring balance to avoid issues like midline deviation.

Act early, intervene thoughtfully, and prevent complex future orthodontics through proactive care.
