Restorative Dentistry Market: Growth Drivers

• Rise in burden of oral/dental disease to propel market growth

One of the key factors expected to augment the growth of the global restorative dentistry market over the forecast period is the rise in burden of oral or dental disease across the globe. For instance, restorative dentistry refers to a dental procedure that repairs or replaces the tooth.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), oral diseases affect around 3.5 billion people worldwide, with 3 out of 4 people live in middle-income countries. Moreover, around 2 billion people suffer from caries of permanent teeth and 514 billion children suffer from caries of primary teeth. Thus, with the rise in burden of oral/dental disease, the use of restorative dentistry is also increasing.   

• Rising dental tourism to underpin market growth

Another factor which is driving the growth of the global restorative dentistry market is the growing dental tourism in emerging markets. For instance, the idea behind dental tourism is based on the fact that people traveling to other countries can save up to 60% on their dental treatment.

Dental tourism has grown exponentially in the last few years in emerging countries such as India, Mexico, Turkey, Poland, and Hungary; primarily be attributed to the low prices of dental treatments. For instance, dental crowns cost US$ 2,000 in the U.S., whereas dental crowns cost US$ 300 in India. Dental tourism also offers shorter waiting times and major cost advantages.

Restorative Dentistry Market: Trends

• High demand for dental implants is a recent trend

The demand for dental implants is on rise due to increasing prevalence of oral disease and growing geriatric population across the world. Thus, players in the market are focusing on developing and launching novel products in the market, and this trend is expected to continue during the forecast period.

• Increasing awareness among people is another trend

Oral hygiene is important to a person's overall health and well-being. Several studies have shown that untreated oral diseases may increase the risk of adverse health conditions. Poor oral hygiene can lead to dental cavities and gum disease, and has also been linked to heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.

Thus, maintaining good oral hygiene is important in improving oral health and the overall well-being and oral health awareness and practices need to be improved. Moreover, it is important to raise awareness about oral health and well-being.

Restorative Dentistry Market: Opportunities

High demand for restorative dentistry products worldwide is expected to offer significant growth opportunities for players in the global restorative dentistry market.

Growing geriatric population across the world is expected to offer significant growth opportunities for players in the global restorative dentistry market. For instance, oral diseases are one of the most prevalent health conditions globally, and their burden, especially tooth loss, is huge amongst the older population and thus, with the growing geriatric (aging) population, the demand for restorative dentistry products is also increasing rapidly.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), one in six people in the world will be aged 60 years or over by 2030, and the world’s population of people aged 60 years and older will double (2.1 billion) by 2050.
