Industry Insights
The global Dental Implants Market is likely to reach USD 6.81 billion by 2024, with a CAGR of 7.7% during the forecast period. Dental implants have wide application as anchors used for the positioning of dental prostheses such as dentures, bridges, or crowns. Dentists prefer these implants for replacements for missing teeth which are considered as long-term solutions with excellent results.
Boosting the demand via oral rehabilitation is majorly performed by prosthetics. This involves restoring the facial forms and oral function of patients. Patients and dentists are readily accepting the implants since there are limitations of removable prosthesis such as lack of natural appearance, discomfort, and requirement of maintenance. The major advantage of these implants is if the prosthetics are mounted on dental implants, they do not affect soft tissues with enhanced aesthetics, which will act as the driver to its growth.
The increase in the base population plays a vital role in the growth of the segment. The development of diseases for tooth loss is mostly observed in the geriatric population. Also, the aging population is expected to grow over the next six years which will help to increase this segment.
According to a survey done by the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, in the US, more than 15 million people have bridges or crowns and over 30 million people have missing teeth in one or both jaws. These factors will drive the market in the coming years. Furthermore, the increase in the number of road accidents every year will also help the market to increase.
Companies like Nobel Biocare Services AG are occupied in the production of novel products, which has helped in increasing the product portfolio, thus, providing more product range for the end consumers which results in enhanced treatment. Though dental implant treatments are costly but are widely accepted resulting in a high rate of success rates.
