This is the executive summary only, extracted from the full report which is also available for purchase.
In 2008, there were over 60 million units of dental prosthetic devices sold. While the growth rate has declined due to the economic recession in 2008 and is expected to continue declining late into 2009, this number is expected to steadily recover, reaching over 80 million by the end of the forecast period. The number of patients requiring dental restorations is increasing, especially as baby boomers age. In addition, Americans are becoming more concerned with their appearance, and hence, dentists are performing more cosmetically-driven procedures.
