Root Canal Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increasing Dental Health Awareness Favors Market Growth

A majority of the population across the world does not prefer visiting dentists due to the high treatment costs. Also, access to dental care is a bit difficult as it is generally covered under the private healthcare sector. Most dental conditions are preventable and share common risk factors with other chronic diseases. Therefore, there is high negligence toward these problems among people. In addition, social determinants of health such as income, employment, and education also impact health conditions. Moreover, populations residing in rural areas are not aware of dental hygiene, dental health, and diseases. Various governments across the world are supporting oral health education and awareness communities. In the US, American Dental Association has announced February as the National Children’s Dental Health Month. It implemented a dental wellness program in 2019; the program brings several healthcare providers, dental professionals, and educators to promote the advantages of good oral health to children and their caregivers, including teachers. Similarly, in India, the National Oral Health Program was initiated by the Indian Dental Association (IDA) in 2020, to address the burden of dental diseases effectively. Thus, the rising number of awareness programs is boosting the demand for root canal procedures, thereby bolstering the market growth.

Flourishing Medical Tourism in Developing Countries to Create Notable Opportunities in Future

Medical tourism entails approaching foreign healthcare systems to obtain effective services at reduced costs. The majority of dental tourism ad creators target Americans seeking treatment in Mexico or Costa Rica as well as Australians seeking treatment in Thailand, South Korea, and India. Dental tourism is becoming a more significant part of the medical tourism business. In addition, Turkey has been a popular destination for dental tourism, particularly among Europeans. In Istanbul, people may save up to 75% on dental care while enjoying vacation packages. In Turkey, a root canal surgery costs as low as US$ 150, which cost up to US$ 1,000 in the US. Moreover, the treatment involves the use of the most advanced technologies. Thus, the surge in people approaching emerging economies for dental procedures is providing significant opportunities for the future growth of the root canal market players.
