How can i stop space maintainer pains?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pain control: Only mild discomfort or sensitivity is expected after the placement of a space maintainer. Medications OTC such as Tylenol (acetaminophen) or Advil usually control this pain. This pain should improve within 24 to 48 hours.
