Dentures are removable false teeth which replace teeth lost due to decay and injury among other causes. Dentures are created to fit in the patients’ jaw and across the gums to replace the missing teeth. Dentures not only replace the missing teeth but also restore the aesthetics, phonetics and functions.
Market Dynamics
The rising aging population is expected to drive the global dentures market growth. For instance, according to an article published by the World Health Organization (WHO) in February 2018, the proportion of the worldwide geriatric population will nearly double from 12% to 22% between 2015 and 2050.
Moreover, the rising prevalence of oral diseases is expected to drive the market growth. For instance, according to an article titled ‘Incidence of Tooth Loss in Adults: A 4-Year Population-Based Prospective Cohort Study’, published by the International Journal of Dentistry in March 2017, tooth loss is among the most affected health conditions which lead to functional, aesthetic, and social damage with impact on patients’ quality of life and is responsible for causing 7.6 million DALY (disability-adjusted life years).
