WHAT ARE DENTAL PROSTHETICS?
In dentistry, prosthetics are a way to restore or replace damaged teeth. Crowns and bridges, dentures, denture teeth, and CAD/CAM prosthetics all make up the dental prosthetics market. In general, the majority of dental prosthetics are prepared within laboratories. However, there are some exceptions as dentists prepare several prosthetics outside of a laboratory using chairside technology. In terms of overall trends, CAD/CAM technology has revolutionized the dental prosthetics market as a whole. Traditionally, the preparation of prosthetics was done by hand using physical impressions of patients’ mouths. Now, dentists utilize technology and build prosthetics digitally whether in a dental laboratory or the dental office.

WHAT ARE SOME OF THE OVERALL MARKET TRENDS?
As the numbers indicate, the dental prosthetics market in India is growing the fastest at a CAGR of 11.3%. The majority of growth within India is a result of the rapidly increasing per capita income, as historically, India’s per capita income was much lower than the global average. The largest market in terms of monetary value is China with Japan trailing close behind. Due to the large percentage of the population being above the age of 60, China and Japan can achieve such extreme market values as age acts as a driver.
Within all of the individual markets, similar trends are occurring. For example, dentists prescribe crowns the most in relation to the other prosthetics. As a result, crowns have increased in popularity relative to bridges. Despite the popularity surrounding crowns, dentures are the fastest-growing segment. Growth within the dentures segment is driven by demographic factors and increasing per capita income. Limiters upon these markets vary depending on the segment, dental health, per capita income, and other factors.
