Do dental space maintainers prevent you from french kissing?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
How old are you?: If you both are of age, then it depends on the design of the space maintainer and which area it is designed for ( front, back, upper or lower).

NO: Space maintainers are generally used on pediatric patients (children). If you are an adult with a space maintainer, you should have some restoration done to replace the missing tooth.
