Are paediatric partials for toddlers safe?

[Dentalquestions6484]

5 year old knock out front top incisor a year ago, we put a pedi partial in which he’s happy with, but when it came out temporarily, I could see the gum had recessed, further than the neighbouring teeth - I understand this would happen with an extraction anyway , but am not wondering it the pedi partial may be contributing and more importantly whether any recession in the alveolar gum/bone will correct itself when the permanent tooth comes in

Receding gums are common, while bone loss may occur but can be mitigated by the growing permanent tooth. Consult your child's dentist, they can assess the situation and advise on adjustments or alternatives. Proper oral hygiene remains crucial.
