Further, the incidence of orthopedic diseases has increased significantly in North America. In certain cases, various surgeries, such as knee arthroplasty or total knee replacement, are recommended by physicians to resurface a knee joint that has been damaged by arthritis, where the knee replacements use polymeric biomaterials. The rising incidence and prevalence of various orthopedic conditions in the region are increasing the demand for knee replacements, which, in turn, is raising the demand for polymeric biomaterials. This is boosting the growth of the market in North America.
Furthermore, the geriatric population in North America is increasing significantly. The geriatric population is at a high risk of developing various orthopedic conditions, such as knee injuries and arthritis, which is spurring the demand for various surgeries that drive the demand for polymeric biomaterials in North America. This, in turn, is fostering the growth of the market in the region during the forecast period.
The market is driven by the rising number of hip and knee replacement surgeries, reflecting increased demand for effective treatments for musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). An emerging trend in this market is the increasing application in clinical applications, driven by innovations in polymeric biomaterials and tissue engineering. However, the industry faces challenges, such as the presence of substitutes, which may impact market penetration and growth. Despite challenges, the market continues to witness advancements in biomaterial substances and controlled delivery of drugs, catering to the needs of patients undergoing surgeries for chronic diseases. Amidst lockdown hindrances, clinical research activities play a crucial role in driving innovation and ensuring the development of effective treatment solutions. With a focus on leveraging technologies such as 3D-printable biomaterials, stakeholders aim to address the evolving needs of patients while adhering to stringent regulatory standards set by organizations like the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (ICO).
The rising number of hip and knee replacement surgeries is notably driving market growth. With the rising geriatric population across the world, the number of patients suffering from arthritis is simultaneously increasing. For patients with arthritis, total hip/knee joint replacement is the best treatment option. The design, development, and manufacturing of knee, hip, and other implants that replace a particular failed body part or organ are gaining importance among the older population. It is estimated that the number of people suffering from arthritis will increase owing to the growth in the global geriatric population.
Moreover, they are used in medical devices or implants that replace particular body parts or functions, thereby helping such patients regain the use of the affected part. Thus, the rising geriatric population globally, which is highly vulnerable to arthritis of major joints, where treatments involve the use of implants made from polymeric biomaterials, will drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Increasing application in clinical applications is an emerging trend shaping market growth. Polymerics have received significant attention in recent years for biomaterial design, which encompasses both fundamental research and therapeutic applications. Because of their structural flexibility, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and the ability to be functionalized with the desired biomolecules, advanced polymers have been utilized to develop biomaterials.
In addition, it combined with inorganic nanoparticles, such as graphene oxide, gold nanoparticles, and hydroxyapatite, to endow them with unique and synergetic properties in clinical applications. Thus, the increasing use of polymeric biomaterials in clinical applications will have a positive impact on the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The presence of substitutes is a significant challenge hindering market growth. Patients undergoing dental treatment are familiar with metallic materials, such as titanium and gold, which are used for dental treatments, such as the fixation of crowns and tooth implants. Moreover, metallic biomaterials possess superior mechanical properties, such as fracture resistance, ductility, and yield strength. Metallic biomaterials are basically engineered systems that are designed to provide internal support to biological tissues. Metallic biomaterials are strong as well as resistant to degradation due to material fatigue. Therefore, they are widely used in orthopedic procedures such as joint replacements, orthopedic fixations, and stents.
In addition, metallic biomaterials are used in dental as well as cosmetic surgeries. Ceramic biomaterials are another type of biocompatible materials that are used in medical applications, such as dental implants, bone substitutes, and joint replacement surgeries.
