The vendor landscape in the global dental prosthetics market
demonstrates a relatively consolidated structure, states a new report
by Transparency Market Research (TMR). The top three players namely,
Institut Straumann AG, DENTSPLY International Inc., and Nobel Biocare
Holdings AG, held 48.5% of the overall market in 2014. These players are
actively involved into collaborative strategies, focusing especially
towards developed economies with advanced healthcare infrastructure. The
market, however, is equally captured by regional players, making the
competition intense and, with the high influx of new players in the
market, the scenario is likely to remain so over the next few years,
states the research study.
According to the research report, the
global market for dental prosthetics, which stood at US$3.5 bn in 2016,
is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 7.60% during the period from 2015
to 2023 and reach a value of US$5.88 bn by the end of the period of the
forecast. Among the products, dental crowns have been witnessing a
considerably higher demand and is anticipated to remain doing so over
the next few years. Geographically, Europe has been leading the global
market since the last few years. With US$2.2 bn in revenue by 2023 end,
this regional market is anticipated to continue on the top in the near
future, notes the market study.
Increasing Prevalence of Severe Periodontal Diseases to Boost Demand for Dental Prosthetics
“The global dental prosthetics market is
benefiting from the rising number of people going for dental care
procedures due to various purposes,” states an analyst at TMR. “Several
international authorities, such as the World Health Organization (WHO)
and the American Academy of Implant Dentistry have reported an increase
in the count of patients suffering from severe periodontal diseases,
which is adding to demand for dental prosthetics, considerably,” he
added.
The rising prevalence of oral cancer is
another important factor, which is fueling the demand for dental
prosthetics across the world. Poor dental hygiene, increasing
consumption of unhealthy foods, rising geriatric population base, and
the augmenting disposable income of people, collectively, will propel
the global dental prosthetics market in the near future, states the
research report.
Increasing Disparity in Product Cost to Hamper Market
On the flip side, the increasing entry of
new players in the worldwide market for dental prosthetics is creating a
high level of disparity in the cost of dental prosthetics, as local
vendors are offering these products at much lower prices than their
global counterparts, which is likely to impact the market negatively in
the years to come, reports the study.
