The premature loss of primary teeth in mixed dentition commonly results in space loss. The spacelost is regained with the help of an appliance referred to as a space regainer. The appliance is of both removable and fixed type. This case report highlights the usage of a fixed KamatUday appliance (Triple-banded space regainer) in compromised abutment teeth.
