How much leeway space is average per side in the maxilla?

  1. 1.5 mm

  2. 2.5 mm

  3. 2 mm

  4. 3 mm

The correct answer is: 1.5 mm

The average amount of leeway space per side in the maxilla is 1.5 mm. This means that the difference in size between primary teeth and permanent teeth in the maxilla is typically around 1.5 mm. Option B is incorrect because it is too large of a measurement and would result in a larger gap between primary and permanent teeth. Option C is also incorrect as it is smaller than the average amount of leeway space. Option D is incorrect as it is a larger measurement than the average amount of leeway space.
