The anticipated rise in the prevalence of dental caries is expected to drive the growth of the dental liners and bases market. Dental caries, commonly known as tooth decay or cavities, is a persistent infectious condition caused by bacteria in the mouth breaking down sugars, producing acid that demineralizes the tooth enamel. Dental liners and bases play a crucial role in restorative dentistry by providing a protective barrier and support for tooth structures. This helps prevent postoperative sensitivity, promotes tissue health, and enhances the overall success and longevity of dental restorations. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 514 million children worldwide and 2 billion adults are estimated to suffer from primary and permanent tooth caries, respectively, in 2022. With 7% tooth loss in adults above 20 and 23% in those above 60 due to dental caries, the rise in its prevalence is expected to propel the dental liners and bases market.
