Dublin, Sept. 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — U.S “Dental Crowns and Bridges Market – Growth, Trends, COVID-19 Impact and Forecasts (2023-2028)” reference has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The dental crowns and bridges market is estimated to register a CAGR of 8.15% during the forecast period.
COVID-19 has had a profound impact on the dental crowns and bridges market due to cancellations of dental procedures worldwide, as they require close contact with the doctor and their patients, as well as with dental equipment, which carries the risk of being infected by the virus. The production and distribution of dental equipment was also halted.
For example, according to the study published in June 2021, there was a marked reduction in emergency presentations to the dental, oral and maxillofacial surgery emergency services at the Mainz University Hospital during the partial lockdown period, by up to 39%. However, the market has been recovering well in the last two years since restrictions were lifted. Dental crowns and bridges market is expected to show steady growth during the forecast period.d
The development of 3D imaging and CAD/CAM technologies, as well as the increase in demand for oral healthcare, preventive dentistry, and cosmetic dentistry, all have an impact on the growth of the market under study.
One of the most common dental procedures is root canal treatment. In children and the elderly, dental crowns and bridges are more common, as it is a painless procedure and does not require multiple sittings compared to root canal treatments.
For example, according to the World Population Prospect, the population aged 65 and over in Sub-Saharan Africa is projected to be 3.0% in 2022 and is projected to reach 3.3% by 2030. In North Africa and Western Asia, it is projected to be 5.5% in 2022 and is projected to reach 7.0% by 2030. In Central and South Asia, it is estimated to be 6.4% in 2022 and is projected to reach 8.1% by 2030. and in Europe and North America, it is estimated to be 18.7% in 2022 and is projected to reach 22.0% by 2030.
The geriatric population is more prone to dental disease and more likely to undergo a dental procedure where dental crowns and bridges are used. Also, according to the Commonwealth of Australia, by 2021, 1 in 25 people (aged 15 and over) will have no natural teeth. Hence, with the increasing geriatric population worldwide, the market for dental crowns and bridges is expected to grow.
In addition, according to a research article published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health in November 2021, a total of 15,731 Australians aged 15 and over were surveyed, of which 5022 dentate participants were examined orally. The results showed that almost a third of Australian adults had at least one tooth surface with untreated dental caries.
Almost 29% of adults had gingivitis, while the overall prevalence of periodontitis was 30.1%. Overall, 4% of subjects were edentulous and 4.4 teeth were lost due to pathology per adult. Thus, people with lower incomes tend to have worse oral health, which is likely to drive market growth.
Various awareness initiatives worldwide motivate people to undergo dental treatment and routine dental check-ups. For example, the World Dental Federation (WDF) celebrates World Oral Health Day on March 20 every year.
Dental Crowns and Bridges Market Trends
The Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal (PFM) segment is expected to sustain the market during the forecast period
Porcelain fused to metal (PFM) dental crowns have been a solution for restoring the appearance and function of a damaged tooth for a long time.
Many metal dental crowns are now on the market because metal crowns are extremely strong. They can be made of stainless steel, gold or various metal alloys. But a common alternative to metal crowns is a crown made by fusing porcelain to metal. With these PFM dental crowns, patients have the advantage of the strength of metals and the porcelain veneer can provide a natural color that can match the original tooth color.
These advantages boost the market demand for porcelain fused-to-metal crowns. Fused porcelain crowns generally last 10 to 15 years, which is slightly longer than porcelain crowns. The metal reinforcement of the porcelain crown makes it ideal for people who clench, grind or suffer from bruxism.
North America is expected to hold a significant market share during the forecast period.
North America is expected to hold a significant share in the dental crowns and bridges market due to the increase in demand for oral healthcare and preventive and cosmetic dentistry as well as the presence of major players in the region.
According to an article published in the Journal of the American Dental Association in April 2022, based on a weighted sample representative of 193.5 million adults, the prevalence of untreated caries was found to be 21.3%. Coronary caries and dental caries had a specific prevalence of 17.9% and 10.1%, respectively, in 2021.
