The global dental market is projected to grow to a value of around 37 billion U.S. dollars by 2021. Current indicators show that the market will continue to grow moving forward. The implant treatment segment is expected to be a main driver of the total market. Progress in the fields of medical technologies and implant materials as well as an increasing number of specialized dentists have brought down costs per dental implant treatment.
Dental expenditures compared
Exact dental expenditures vary by country. In recent history, 2018 has been the most expensive year for dental expenditures per household in the United Kingdom. However, dental care as a proportion of U.S. health expenditures has declined in recent years. Canada has also seen dental service expenditure growth in recent years, with a majority of their expenditures occurring in the private sector.
Dental implants as a market driver
The global dental market is comprised of many segments including prevention, prosthetics, orthodontics and equipment, to name a few. Within the dental implant segment, Europe holds the highest share of market revenue among all regions of the world. Despite Europe holding the highest share of the dental implant market, many countries in Asia have the highest costs for dental implants globally. The dental implant market is also profiting from an increasingly aging population, especially in developed markets.
