Dental Obturators Market Size, Share and Global Trend By Product (Surgical Obturators, Definitive Obturators, Interim Obturators), By Material (Silicone, Metallic, Resin, Others), By End User (Hospitals, Dental Clinics, Ambulatory Surgery Centers, Other) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Rehabilitation of hemimaxillectomy patient is considered to be the most challenging task for dental professionals in terms of getting adequate retention, support & stability to the maxillofacial area. Obturators are thus a prosthesis used to close the acquired tissue opening such as alveolar structure and hard palates. Obturator is a plate or disc that repairs the postsurgical maxillary defect and restores the function of deglutition & mastication in a patient. They act as a framework over which the dental professionals shape the tissues, or they can serve as a temporary prosthesis during the dental surgical procedures.

The ability of obturators to reconstruct and reshape the soft palate of a patient, increasing awareness about dental aesthetics and technological advancements in the dental industry in regards to cosmetic & aesthetic appearance are few of the factors expected to propel the growth of global dental obturators market.

However, the significant cost associated with the use of dental obturators, and lack of trained and well-qualified dental professionals in emerging countries are projected to restrain the expansion of the global dental obturators market during the forecast period.

Key Players Covered

Some of the major companies operating in the dental obturators market are Kerr Corporation (Kerr Endodontics), SybronEndo, Ethicon US, LLC., Dentsply Sirona, Pac-Dent Inc., Olympus Corporation, ONMED Corporation, Zimmer Biomet, Teleflex Incorporated, and others.
