Dental Implants and Prostheses Market Thriving due to Vast Aged Pool

ALBANY, Calif. - July 12, 2022 - PRLog -- The dental implants and prostheses market is expected to advance at a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period (2018–2023), due to the surging incidence of dental problems, amplifying popularity of cosmetic dentistry procedures, soaring number of dental implant surgeries, booming geriatric population, escalating healthcare expenditure, and rising concern and awareness regarding oral hygiene. Owing to these factors, the market value is projected to grow from $7.2 billion in 2017 to $10.3 billion by 2023.

The expansion of the aged patient pool has become one of the prime factors supporting the market growth. Edentulism, a tooth loss condition, is common among the elderly and one of the key factors that propel people to undergo dental implant procedures and intraoral scanning. Edentulism is caused by aging, periodontal disease, dental caries, and an unhealthy lifestyle. According to the 2019 World Population Ageing report, the global population of people aged 65 years or above will reach 1.5 billion by 2050 from 703 million in 2019.

The rising concern and awareness about oral health are other factors driving the dental implants and prostheses market growth, globally. The concern for oral care is surging due to the burgeoning incidence of tooth decay, tooth erosion, tooth sensitivity problems, and periodontal diseases. Oral diseases are associated with numerous risks that are common to chronic diseases like cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), and chronic respiratory diseases. To avoid the life-threatening effects of oral problems, people are focusing on acquiring more knowledge regarding dental health and treatment methods.

Geographically, Europe accounted for the largest market share (https://www.psmarketresearch.com/market-analysis/dental-i...) in 2017, owing to the soaring demand for cosmetic dentistry procedures, escalating volume of dental implant surgeries, and growing awareness regarding oral hygiene. During the forecast period, the Asia-Pacific dental implants and prostheses market will demonstrate the fastest growth, due to the surging awareness on dental care, increasing cases of dental problems, and rising dental tourism activities. Moreover, a large number of old people in China and India are suffering from dental problems, which is driving the regional market growth.

Thus, the rising concern about oral health, booming elderly population, and flourishing dental tourism industry will stimulate the market growth in the coming years.
