Dental Ceramic Biomaterials Market Driver

Rising Prevalence of Oral Health Issues Boosts Market Growth

The increasing prevalence of oral health issues such as tooth loss, dental caries, and other problems is leading to an increase in the adoption of ceramic dental products such as crowns, bridges, and dentures to restore the function of damaged or lost teeth. Such a scenario is expected to boost the demand for dental ceramic biomaterials market growth during the forecast period.

For instance, in March 2023, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported that an estimated global average prevalence of complete tooth loss is almost 7.0% among individuals aged 20 years or older.

Dental Ceramic Biomaterials Market Restraint

High Costs of Ceramic Dental Products May Hamper Market Growth

The high cost of dental ceramic biomaterials, particularly for dental applications, can be a significant barrier. These materials often require advanced manufacturing processes and specialized equipment, leading to increased production costs. This high price can limit accessibility, especially in price-sensitive markets or among patients with limited healthcare coverage.

For instance, as per the article published by the Dentist in August 2024, the ceramic tooth crown may cost INR 12,000 (USD 143) & upwards in India, while porcelain fused to metal crowns (or PFM) may cost INR 8,000 (USD 95 approximately) & upwards, which is affordable as compared to ceramic.

Dental Ceramic Biomaterials Market Opportunity

Research & Development for Dental Ceramic Biomaterials in Various Dentistry Applications

In recent years, dental ceramic biomaterials have been explored for various applications of dentistry. As research continues to advance, these materials are projected to play an increasingly prominent role in dental practice. This is expected to offer prominent players opportunities to introduce new dental products made from dental ceramic biomaterials, driving market growth in the near future.

For instance, in March 2024, a study published by the Department of Interdisciplinary Medicine, University of Bari “Aldo Moro, reported that porous Dental Ceramic Biomaterials are being investigated for their potential in regenerative medicine, particularly for repairing and regenerating dental tissues. Their microstructure can facilitate tissue integration and growth, which is crucial for successful outcomes in dental surgeries.

Analysis by Product Type

By product type, the market is divided into implants, orthodontic braces, crowns, bridges, and others.

The implants segment accounted for a prominent share of the global dental ceramic biomaterials market in 2023. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the rising focus on key players on ceramic implant launches and commercialization to strengthen their product presence in the global market.

For instance, in March 2022, bredent GmbH & Co.KG launched a new generation of whiteSKY zirconia implants, which are versatile and suitable for a wide range of indications.

Analysis by Type

By type, the market is divided into zirconia, glass ceramics, hydroxyapatite, and others.

The zirconia segment accounted for the major share of the global dental ceramic biomaterials market in 2023. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the rising demand for zirconia in the number of dentistry applications, including dental restorations. Such a scenario is stimulating the key companies to launch new products to support dental practices in the fabrication of realistic full crowns, bridges, and implants, thereby driving segment growth.

For instance, in June 2024, TopzirBiotech launched a 3D Pro multilayer dental zirconia block made up of five types of zirconia powders, including 3Y-PSZ, 4Y-PSZ, and 5Y-PSZ for dental restorations, allowing dentists for the creation of bridges, implants, and full crowns.

Analysis by End User

By end user, the market is divided into dental clinics, dental laboratories, and others.

The dental clinics segment is projected to grow at a notable rate in the coming years. The segment’s growth can be attributed to the focus of clinics to strengthen their ability to provide quality care to their patients. In consideration of this, they are partnering with various dental product companies to train hundreds of clinicians and expand treatment capabilities.

For instance, in July 2022, Envista extended and expanded its commercial partnership with Dentalcorp Holdings Ltd., Canada's largest DSO network of dental practices, to strengthen Dentalcorp's ability to provide the highest quality of care to its patients.
