Sales Analysis of Dental Adhesives Market from 2012 to 2021 Vs Market Outlook for 2022 to 2032

The market value for dental adhesives was approximately 28.8% of the overall ~USD 7.7 billion global dental materials market in 2021.

The global dental adhesives market showed growth at a historic CAGR of 3.9% from 2012 to 21.

According to the Article Published by Bunker Hill Dentistry, the most common aesthetic dentistry procedure is still dental bonding. In 2017, it made up 43% of all cosmetic treatments. These stats also determine the need for use of these adhesive etching materials for restorative procedures.

Moreover, for dental prosthetics, the two key elements for a successful total denture therapy are technical excellence during prosthesis production and efficient patient management. The patient's requirements regarding stability and retention of the denture might be challenging for even the most skilled practitioners to meet, hence it is frequently thought reasonable to recommend a denture adhesive for these individuals.

Thus, high patient satisfaction and increasing demand for cosmetic procedures will boost demand for the global dental adhesives market to grow at a CAGR of 4.5% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2032.

What are the Key Opportunities for the Dental Adhesives Market Manufacturers?

Because of their superior mechanical and aesthetically pleasing qualities, resin-based dental materials are frequently used in restorative procedures, particularly direct adhesive restoration. Direct composite resin adhesive repair has replaced amalgam fillings as the primary method of treating dental flaws in the development of minimally invasive dental procedures.

In order to preserve the living pulp, conservation remineralization has been recommended for dentin that is caries-affected near to the pulp. These advances are set to provide traction to the overall market during the forecasted years.

According to the Orthodontics statistics by Johnson Elite Ortho, in December 2020, The American Dental Association reported that 70% of orthodontic brackets placed are on females, and they are largely for aesthetic purposes. The majority of patients in them are between 12-15 years of age.

For treatment with fixed appliances to be effective and efficient, orthodontic brackets must be bonded to teeth. And this can be eventually achieved with a good quality adhesive that also does not cause any adverse reaction to the patients.

Additionally, Xerostomia caused due to smoking and other medical problems reduces the salivary flow in the oral cavity, and hence promotes the use of denture adhesives, especially in the geriatric group of patients.

Therefore, over the projection period from 2022 to 2032, the market for dental adhesives will reach new heights thanks to cutting-edge, innovative products like 6th and 7th-generation bonding agents for restorative adhesives offered by top manufacturers like 3M and Vista Apex, and the expanding adoption of the market in both developed and emerging nations.

Apart from these, there are stringent government regulations in every country, for the use of dental materials, which can restrict the market growth in the future expansion of dental adhesive materials.
