Market Insights and Analyst View:

Market size for dental practice management software is expected to grow during the forecast period. This research report provides insights on the global dental practice management software market. Dental practice management software is considered to help dentists to tackle the unique challenges. These solutions are easy-to- handle cloud-based software that helps to make clinical and administrative routines run smoother and deliver powerful tools for managing dental clinic data. The dental practice management software provides templates which are designed for dental practices, the capability to import and organize tooth, X-rays, and gum graphics.

Growth Drivers and Challenges:

One of the sensitive measures for access to dental services and overall dental health is tooth loss. According to a survey by Public Health Systems, the incidence of both partial and complete tooth loss in adults and seniors has declined since the early 1970s. The majority of the patients across the world suffer with tooth loss due to factors such as periodontal diseases, tooth decay, injuries, accidents, and others. The rising prevalence and recurrent nature of dental caries and periodontal disease is increasing the demand for endodontic treatment procedures. As per the World Health Organization, the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 reported that untreated dental caries in permanent teeth is the most common health condition among the population. It has also been reported that 2.3 billion adults suffer from dental caries of permanent teeth and over 530 million children suffer from dental caries of primary teeth (milk teeth) worldwide. According to the statistics from NHS Digital published in September 2018, the number of hospital admissions for tooth decay in children aged 5–9 years rose from 25,875 in 2015–2016 to 26,111 in 2017–2018. Over 45% of adults in the UK are affected by gum disease, which further leads to periodontal diseases. Even at its mild level, it is likely to affect the patient’s quality of life.

Oral health 2020 of the World Health Organization estimated that around 3.58 billion people across the world suffer from dental caries (tooth decay) in permanent teeth. The organization has also stated that periodontal disease, a prominent cause of tooth loss, was estimated to be the 11th most prevalent disease on a global scale. It is estimated that 2.4 billion people suffer from caries of permanent teeth and 486 million children suffer from caries of primary teeth across the world. The ACP has estimated that this number is expected to rise over the next two decades due to increasing incidence of cavity and tooth decay. Thus, a high prevalence of dental issues will boost the adoption of dental practice management software by dentists in the coming years.

Though the number of people undergoing dental procedures is increasing in various countries, only a part of the procedure is covered by insurance companies. The policies for dental implants coverage differ from one insurance company to another and have different rules in different nations. Thus, the lack of total coverage for dental procedures can hinder the market growth. For instance, in India, dental implants are reimbursed only in accidental cases after providing the proof such as X-ray and consultation prescription. Additionally, in case of non-traumatic cases, the dental implant procedures were cosmetic and marked under aesthetic procedures till 2017 in India. For non-accident cases, the standard medical insurance does not reimburse dental implants; however, comprehensive insurance plans in India are likely to refund 90% of the total amount charged for the implantation.

COVID-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic affected economies and industries in various countries across the globe. Lockdowns, travel restrictions, and business shutdowns in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC), South & Central America (SAM), and the Middle East & Africa (MEA) hampered the growth of several industries, including the medical device industry. Due to coronavirus spreading, many cities are shutting down, causing treatments and doctor/dentist appointment cancellation. The non-clinical activities have paced the growth of practice management software as data can be accessed from anywhere at any time with cloud-based technology. Oral and dental care is becoming more advanced and smarter in the country. Thus, due to the rising intensity of the pandemic, the patients cannot visit the dental clinics, the limited/uneven availability of dental staffs, and such other factors impact the market.

As the oral treatment, procedures are directly contacted with patients’ oral fluid that has a possible risk of infections, for the preventing the spread of COVID-19 it is requested to maintain social distancing as there is a greater risk of being infected with coronavirus due to direct exposure to oral fluids of the patients. During the COVID‐19 pandemic, routine dental treatments are contraindicated, and the emphasis is placed only on emergency and urgent treatments in all patients. However, the data access and communication system with the practice management software have been rising in this situation where workstation access has been minimum. Therefore, it is likely to positively affect the dental practice management software market due to the abovementioned points
