The photograph presents a variation on the band and loop space maintainer; a mandibular left crown and loop space maintainer is shown. Note how the stainless steel wire is soldered to the stainless steel crown and the wire is bent so that it is adapted closely to the tissue. The crown and loop space maintainer is a type of fixed unilateral space maintainer where stainless steel crown therapy was necessary on the abutment tooth.
