Single Tooth Implants & Dental Bridges Market Analysis

The single-tooth implants and dental bridges market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.21% by the forecast period.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the market studied. During the initial phases of the pandemic, many dental procedures were either postponed or canceled as these procedures held the risk of infection. Thus, this studied market was affected adversely initially. However, this downfall of the market is estimated to be temporary because people needed root canals and other emergency procedures during the later phases. The procedures were continued following proper guidelines to control the infections and related complications in dental surgeries and procedures. For instance, according to an article published in April 2022 in CCIDE journal, to avoid the direct exposure of dental procedures to saliva, blood vessels, and droplets, the researchers recommended minimally invasive dental (MID) procedures, and MID gained demand among the target population. Thus, such studies show that even if the pandemic slightly hampered the market studied initially, it had a considerable impact on dental devices during the later phases of the pandemic and created new opportunities for the studied market. Thus, owing to the factors stated above, the pandemic had a significant impact on the market, and the market studied is anticipated to continue its strong hold over the forecast period.

Factors such as the increase in demand for preventive and cosmetic dentistry and rising awareness about dental care in advanced and developed countries, current trends in 3D imaging and CAD/CAM technologies, and the increasing prevalence of the edentulous population are expected to boost the studied market growth.

According to the data provided by the United Health Foundation (UHF) accessed in 2021, the prevalence of full-mouth teeth extractions due to tooth decay or gum disease among older adults is higher in females than males. In addition, as per the source above, older adults with an annual household income of less than USD 25,000 had a prevalence of tooth decay more than seven times higher than those with a household income of USD 75,000 or more annually. Thus, the statistics indicate that the prevalence of oral diseases such as tooth decay decreases with each increase in income level. Therefore, the burden of tooth decay among the target population is creating demand for dental implants and bridges. This is expected to contribute to the market growth over the forecast period and further.

Moreover, the development of new products is anticipated to accelerate market growth in terms of revenue. For instance, in September 2021, in collaboration with scientists from Nanyang Technological University, a group of researchers from the VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland (VTT) developed a sustainable multiphase nanocomposite. They utilized it to create a new dental implant crown in the laboratory. Such product developments are expected to contribute to market growth.

Therefore, factors such as increasing oral diseases and a rise in the number of new product development are anticipated to propel the growth of the market studied. However, the lack of knowledge about advanced treatment methods among the population and the excessive cost of single-tooth implant procedures can restrain the growth of the market.
