Dental equipment are tools used to examine, manipulate, treat, and restore any oral ailments. Factors, such as the increasing geriatric population suffering from oral diseases, evolving medical tourism pertaining to dental treatment, and the launch of multiple government initiatives for public oral health care, are expected to drive the industry. Furthermore, the introduction of advanced and efficient dental products by major companies is also creating a boost for the market.
Companies like DENTSPLY Sirona, Planmeca Oy, and Danaher Corp., are introducing advanced computer-aided imaging technology that will allow professionals to prepare a precise course of dental treatment. However, the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic has hugely affected the overall dental and oral hygiene industry. Routine dental care was largely unavailable during the pandemic, as many dental practices were forced to close as they were deemed elective procedures. The continuous operation and long-term survival of many dental practices are also threatened by the economic and social challenges arising due to care restrictions, practice closures, and shortages of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), as well as the need of investing in new types of PPE and technology.
While many practices and clinics worldwide re-opened in 2021, the market recovered soon, as there are numerous concerns about the availability of dental services and ensuring the safety of dentists and dental teams. A review article published by The Journal of Contemporary Dental Practice stated that COVID-19 is expected to be a watershed moment in the field of dentistry. While the industry expected to see positive changes in the safe delivery of dental care, an increase in the cost of availing care is imminent. According to the FDI World Dental Federation, oral diseases impact 3.9 billion people worldwide, with untreated tooth decay (dental caries) impacting more than half of the global population (44%), making it the most prevalent of all the 291 conditions included in the Global Burden of Disease Study.
The most frequently carried out dental procedures during these visits include dental fillings, bonding, root canals, dental crowns, dental bridges, periodontal treatments, and oral & maxillofacial procedures. This showcases the existing potential dental procedures around the world. Dental disorders like periodontal disease, oral cancers, and environmental injuries resulting in oro-dental trauma are expected to further assist the overall market growth.
