Dentures Global Market Report 2024

Dentures are artificial replacements for one or several teeth, serving as a practical solution for tooth loss. They facilitate easier eating and speaking, contribute to facial aesthetics, and closely resemble natural teeth.

The primary types of dentures are complete dentures and partial dentures. Complete dentures are removable appliances utilized when all teeth in a jaw need prosthetic replacement. Various materials are employed in the construction of dentures, including acrylic, ceramic, porcelain, metal, and others. Dentures can be categorized as fixed or removable based on their usage. Different manufacturing processes for dentures include conventional methods and the use of 3D printing technology. These dentures find application in specialized dental hospitals, somatology departments in general hospitals, and dental clinics.

The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to various factors, including a focus on regulatory compliance, heightened emphasis on oral health education, the adoption of minimally invasive dentistry practices, the rise of medical tourism in the dental field, and the expansion into emerging markets. Noteworthy trends expected in the forecast period include the emergence of digital dentures, a growing interest in sustainable and biocompatible denture materials, the utilization of 3D scanning for precise measurements, advancements in denture materials, and the development of adhesive-free dentures.

The denture market is anticipated to experience growth due to an increase in the prevalence of periodontal and edentulism diseases. Periodontal disease, characterized by inflammation in the gums and surrounding tooth-supporting structures, affects a substantial portion of the population, particularly individuals aged 65 and older. In 2021, the American Academy of Periodontology reported that over 70% of Americans in this age group suffered from periodontitis, highlighting the demand for dentures as a restorative dental solution.

The denture market is poised for growth driven by rapid urbanization trends. Urbanization, denoting the concentration of populations in urban areas, results in the expansion of cities and increased accessibility to dental care services. The urban setting facilitates easier access to dental clinics and practitioners, addressing the oral health needs of individuals, including denture-related services. With global urban populations expected to reach 6.68 billion by 2050, up from 4.46 billion in 2021, the denture market is influenced by the growing urban demographic seeking comprehensive dental solutions.

The denture market is witnessing a notable trend with the introduction of advanced technical equipment. Technological advancements, such as 3D printed digital denture equipment and CAD/CAM systems, are enhancing the production of removable full-arch dentures. For example, 3dme Solutions launched 3dme Crown in October 2022, utilizing AI technology to automatically design crowns based on patients' 3D scan data. This trend reflects the industry's commitment to leveraging advanced tools for precision and efficiency in denture design and production, meeting the evolving needs of patients and practitioners alike.

Major players in the dentures market are driving innovation through the introduction of cutting-edge technologies, exemplified by the adoption of ceramic-infused 3D printing resins. These advanced materials, showcased by SprintRay Inc. in May 2023, leverage additive manufacturing processes to craft high-performance dentures. The resins seamlessly integrate the durability and aesthetic qualities of ceramics with the precision and customization features inherent in 3D printing. Notably, the high impact denture base within this range has received FDA 510(k) approval, further endorsing its efficacy for 3D manufacturing and repair of both full and partial removable dentures and baseplates.

In a strategic move, National Dentex Labs, a prominent US-based provider of dental prosthetics and restorative dentistry products, bolstered its position in the market through the acquisition of Dental Arts in November 2021.
