Space maintainers are frequently used to prevent malocclusion problems in early primary tooth loss. Oral health literacy is defined as the capacity of individuals to learn, understand and evaluate basic oral health information. It is considered that parents' awareness of space maintainers may be affected by various factors such as their demographic characteristics and oral health literacy. The aim was to evaluate the relationship between variables by determining parents' awareness of space maintainers and their oral health literacy.
