Résumé

The premature loss of the primary teeth after the eruption of first permanent molar can result in mesial shift of the first permanent molar. In such circumstances, we require space regainer. The "banded helical retractor" was designed to overcome some of the limitations of the conventional removable and fixed regainers. This paper presents a case report with premature loss of second deciduous molar after the eruption of first permanent molar, and regaining the space loss by using innovative design "banded helical retractor". A 7-year-old patient with loss of space due to early exfoliation of 75 was given an innovative space regainer "banded helical retractor". After 6-weeks followup, space was regained with uprighting of molars. "Banded helical retractor" as a space regainer was effective in regaining the space in the short duration of time.
