Subsidized dental services is a key driver shaping growth. Several countries, including Austria, Mexico, Poland, Spain, and Turkey, offer free or subsidized dental services. In Denmark, children up to 18 years receive free dental care through schools, while adults receive a 20% subsidy for private dental care. Italy's NHS covers comprehensive dental care, excluding dental implants.
Similarly, Greece provides free dental care to children, while social security organizations subsidize most dental care for others. In Sweden, children up to 19 years old receive free dental care, and adults have access to subsidized dental care. The US offers tax deductions to dental professionals and clinics under Section 179 of the IRS tax code. These incentives increase the adoption. Hence, such factors are driving the market during the forecast period.
3D printing technology is a key trend shaping the growth. Dental professionals worldwide are increasingly using 3D printing technology for various clinical and research purposes. Additive layer manufacturing in 3D printing enables clinicians to fabricate customized medical devices, even with complex shapes, porous structures, and internal support structures, which is not possible with traditional subtractive manufacturing techniques.
Moreover, 3D printing is being used to manufacture customized disposable and reusable surgical instruments, such as surgical guides, at significantly lower costs and shorter wait times. The technology also allows dental professionals to produce various customized dental implants, including crowns, bridges, clear aligners, and retainers, accurately and rapidly. The 3D scans of the patient's mouth ensure high precision and customizability of dental implants, improving their fit, comfort, and ease of surgery.
Limited access to good quality oral healthcare is a major challenge hindering the growth. In many developing and developed countries, due to factors such as low socioeconomic status, poor patient perceptions, and a shortage of dentists, access to quality oral health is limited. For example, in Africa, there are only 3 dentists for every 500,000 people. In addition, many dental care providers lack professional training and knowledge of advanced dental equipment.
Moreover, high treatment costs and lack of insurance coverage further limit access to dental care. Even in developed countries, some population groups do not have dental insurance coverage, and Medicaid only provides limited coverage for adults. There is also low oral healthcare literacy in many developing countries, resulting in poor knowledge of available treatment options. Therefore, the demand for dental surgical equipment is limited in these countries. Hence, such factors are hindering the market during the forecast period.
