Asia Pacific Sports Mouthguard Market Developments and Forecast by 2028

The Asia Pacific sports mouthguard market is expected to reach US$ 1,219.39 million by 2028 from US$ 569.88 million in 2021; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 11.5% from 2021 to 2028.

Custom mouthguards are made from exact models of an individual's teeth; they are made of durable and tear-resistant materials, ensuring a proper fit. They are comfortable, easy to clean, and do not limit breathing. Custom mouthguards provide the finest level of protection against injuries to the face and lips. In addition, as young athletes' jaws grow, the custom mouthguards may need to be replaced every few years. A customized athletic mouthguard provides the best protection for teeth and oral tissues. Because children and teenagers are self-conscious about their appearance, a customized athletic mouthguard is the best approach to safeguard their smile from injuries such as knocked-out or chipped teeth. In addition, as customization offers extra comfort, users are not reluctant of wearing these mouthguards while participating in sports. Dentists offer a custom-fabricated mouthguard made from a model of an individual’s mouth. It undoubtedly fits nicely and covers a larger portion of each bite than the others. It is inexpensive, especially when compared to the possible cost of dental work, if one doesn't use one. Thus, customized athletic mouthguards are expected to emerge as a significant trend in the coming years. The innovations in mouthguard technology are not limited to its fit. Technological advancements have also increased the mouthguard's durability since a denser material allows for a better damage resistance without adding any thickness to the mouthguard. A self-fit mouthguard is an example of technological development. OPRO Self-Fit mouthguards, for instance, have innovative fins that are anatomically oriented for the greatest fit and retention. Data from ~1 million OPRO Custom-Fit dental impressions was used to determine the placement and depth of the fins. Damprotech is a reliable material to use in mouthguards to dissipate energy and protect wearer’s mouths from high-velocity strikes that can occur in the oral region, while playing sports.

Growing urbanization, notable sports industry growth, and rising disposable income levels in Asia Pacific make it a highly promising market for the future growth of sports technologies. However, the increasing number of COVID-19 cases and high death rates in India and Southeast Asian countries is anticipated to affect the market growth in the coming few quarters. The ongoing restrictions on mobility; cancellation/postponement of various big sports events, such as Tokyo 2020 Olympics; and restrictions on organization of group/sports activities have affected the overall sports industry in this region. In addition to this, the growing caution among countries such as the US, Australia, and Canada to attend any sports events happening in APAC is further challenging the industry growth. Also, there is an uncertainty around the organization of various big sports events such as Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB), Australian Football League (AFL), and National Rugby League (NRL). Hence, uncertainties regarding the status of COVID-19 outbreak in coming future especially in India and a few other Asian countries, where the graph of confirmed cases is on an upward path, may affect the growth of sports mouthguards market in the coming quarters owing to reduced demand of sports equipment among athletes.
