By: Sunil Nair Demand for dental equipment (excluding supplies) in the US is forecast to rise 3.7 percent per year to $2.8 billion in 2011, aided by favorable economic conditions and population trends, as well as a strong interest in technology updates. Solid growth in the 50+ population segment will provide opportunities; Advanced technology equipment to see most rapid gains In general, equipment that features advanced technology, such as lasers, digital radiography and CAD/CAM systems, will provide the most rapid gains. Dentists are seeking higher tech equipment to improve office productivity; operating costs, since these items do not require the use of chemicals or film. The use of CAD/CAM systems allows the dentist to create customized all-ceramic crowns, bridges or veneers from ceramic blanks in the same visit. These systems eliminate the dentist’s reliance on an outside laboratory, reducing the amount of visits per procedure.Furniture and lighting are expected to achieve moderate growth, basically due to the lengthy useful lifespan of these items. Nevertheless, this product category will benefit from dental chair purchases, as dentists attempt to create comfortable settings for their patients. Lighting will benefit from a technology shift to higher value-added technologies, such as LED and fiber optic. Study coverage Details on these and other findings are available in the new industry study, Dental Equipment, priced at $4400.
