Summary
Why was the report written?
Marketers in the Oral Hygiene market face a major challenge.

What is the current market landscape and what is changing?
As consumer confidence increases proportionally to economic recovery, consumer trends will be directly affected. Since the global financial crisis of 2008–2009 the retail market has been characterized by an increased amount of discount and own-brand products. Toothbrushes and Toothpaste are considered essential items and therefore recession has not affected their consumption pattern. On the other hand, Mouthwash, Breath Fresheners and Dental Floss are not considered essential items and therefore consumption patterns have been comparatively affected. As economic and market recovery continues over 2012, consumption patterns will record a positive trend in both the Medium and Heavy frequency bands and the amount of Non-users should decrease.
