COVID-19 Impact Analysis
In early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic had a detrimental impact on the dental 3D printing Market, as most dental offices, laboratories, clinics were forced to close due to lockdowns & quarantine regulations in many regions of the world. As a result, all non-essential dental procedures were postponed, and the number of outpatient cases plummeted during this time. The patient flow was decreased once the lockdown and quarantine measures were released in most parts of the planet, as most people were hesitant to engage in the close-contact treatment required for dental treatments. Moreover, the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the dentistry business, in the COVID-19 scenario, could stymie the adoption of dental 3D printing because of its high capital & operational expenses.Market driving Factors:
Higher demand for cosmetic dentistry & preventive dental care
With rising disposable income comes a greater willingness to undergo costly cosmetic operations, particularly among the elderly people. Dental restoration options and aesthetic treatments including teeth polishing and whitening are in high demand around the world. In addition, in both developing & developed countries, there has been a rise in the demand for preventive dental care along with the adoption of cosmetic dentistry, due to growing focus on dental aesthetics, changing lifestyles, the utilization of dental 3D printing approach is rising rapidly.Increasing Edentulism in geriatric population
Edentulism (tooth loss) is a serious oral health problem within the elderly people. the WHO estimates that 30% of people aged 65 and more are edentulous. This pattern is predicted to rise the number of persons suffering from oral health issues, including edentulism, as the elderly people are more prone to various health diseases, including many dental ailments. Tooth loss is also caused by periodontal disease & dental cavities. Women live longer on average than men, hence they make up the majority of the old population, especially at advanced ages.Market ing Restraining Factor:
High operating costs & capital investment
Due to high cost of the process, dental 3D printing facilities may be unaffordable for small and medium-sized laboratories. This is a significant challenge in the Market because most dental labs are small or medium-sized. The manufacturing cost of the high-resolution 3D printer is very high. This makes it more difficult for laboratories that rely on federal money, which might take a long time to secure, to install and employ such equipment. Many smaller dental clinics may prefer to outsource production to service laboratories or bureaus because of this budgetary consideration. Moreover, when the lead time increases, the speed of 3D printing decreases significantly, with parts needing days or weeks to complete.
Product & Services Outlook
Based on Product & Services, the Market is segmented into Services, Material (Plastic, Metal, and Others), and Equipment (Dental 3D Scanners and Dental 3D Printers).
