However, edentulism in developing and underdeveloped countries is increasing. The dental treatment options are limited in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) although edentulism is associated with a variety of unfavorable health results. The decrease in the prevalence of edentulism and lesser treatment options in LMICs are expected to obstruct the growth rates of the market during the forecast period.
