Spain Dental Devices Market Analysis

The Spain Dental Devices Market is expected to register a CAGR of nearly 6.69% over the forecast period.

The COVID-19 outbreak has exerted severe global implications, and its impact in various regions is complex and variable. The high risk of cross-infection posed a great challenge to the dental devices market and dental practice. Routine dental care was largely unavailable during the pandemic, as many dental practices were forced to close as they were deemed elective procedures. For instance, in April 2022 an article titled, 'A retrospective study on the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on dental treatments in adults' reported that in the capital of Spain, the Fundación Clínica Universitaria of the Rey Juan Carlos University (FU-URJC) that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, only treatments associated with dental emergencies were performed. Routine care in dental clinics was suspended during the first wave of the pandemic in the region. The dental equipment, indeed, is at high risk of contagion due to exposure to saliva, blood, and aerosol/droplet production during most dental procedures. Spain's dental devices market faced certain challenges during the initial phase of the pandemic, but the market came back to normal after a few months when the services around the world came back to normal.

The factors that are driving the market are the increasing burden of oral diseases and aging population and technological advancements in dentistry. The Spain region witnesses an increasing population of geriatric population since this population is highly prevalent in dental surgeries and other dental practices, thereby driving the dental devices market in the region. In 2021 World Bank Staff estimated that 9,616,236 population in Spain aged 65 and above, this number got increased by 18.7% over the decade. Also, a few studies also reported that high incidence of diabetes cases in the region was also associated with high incidence of tooth decay. For instance, in 2021 an article titled, 'Association between Diabetes and Dental Caries in Spanish Adults: A Cross-Sectional Study Including 23,089 Adults' reported that the prevalence of dental caries was 20.6%. The study also reported that diabetics were 1.30 times more likely to have dental caries compared with their counterparts without diabetes. Thus, the high incidence of geriatric population and chronic disease conditions like diabetes is causing increasing tooth decay thereby driving the studied market in the region.

Also, technological advancements in dentistry are driving the market. For instance, in 2021 an article titled, 'Dentistry 4.0 technologies applications for dentistry during COVID-19 pandemic' reported that dentistry 4.0 is advancing on its way with the use of advanced technologies in dentistry. Dentistry 4.0 provides innovative problem-solving with new manufacturing opportunities and automation, data exchange, and various advanced technologies. It uses the Internet of Dental Things (IoT) to connect various dentistry tools and devices. Industries produce high-quality dentistry customized products with real-time intelligence under Dentistry 4.0 technologies.

Thus, due to the aforesaid mentioned reasons, the market is expected to show significant growth over the forecast period. However, the increasing cost of surgeries may slow down the market growth over the forecast period.
