Baby Oral Care Market Research, 2031

The global baby oral care market was valued at $1.3 billion in 2021 and is projected to reach $2 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 4.3% from 2022 to 2031.

Brushes, toothpaste, tooth mousse, floss, teethers, gum soothing gels, and other products are available in the baby oral care market. These products are specially formulated to be compatible with the internal composition of the mouth of a bay to avoid harm to the teeth and gums. The scope of the study includes babies aged 0-12 months classified as infants and babies aged 13-36 months classified as toddlers. 

There is a rise in the disposable income of consumers all over the world, which is increasing their purchasing power. Many consumers spend a lot of money on their babies to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Parents spend money on products such as baby monitors, baby educational toys, baby care products, and more to ensure that their babies are safe, entertained, and healthy. Consumers also spend more on premium and high-quality products to provide their babies with premium products that are safe for them. This includes toothbrushes, toothpaste, and teethers, which go into the mouths of the babies and may cause harm if the product quality is poor. This increases demand for baby products, including baby oral care products, resulting in massive growth for the baby oral care products market. 

Cleaning the teeth and gums of babies and toddlers may be difficult because children aged zero to three years are generally either restless or incognizant, making products such as finger brushes, gum and tooth wipes, tongue cleaners, and other products difficult to use. Market participants in the Baby Oral Care industry are incorporating various designs and flavors into baby oral care products to make them appealing to children. Form factors for toothbrushes, tongue cleaners, and teethers include bananas, bears, dinosaurs, and other animals, while flavors for toothpaste, gum soothing gels, and tooth mousse include apple, strawberry, mixed berries, and other fruits. These products are appealing to children, causing them to want to use them, removing the need for parents to use products on children that they dislike, and making the process of cleaning their teeth and mouth easier. These appealing form factors and flavors of baby oral care products contribute to the Baby Oral Care Market Growth. 

The global fertility rate is defined as the average number of children borne by women worldwide until the end of their fertility life cycles. According to the World Economic Forum, global fertility rates have been declining in recent years, with the fertility rate having dropped by 50% in the last 70 years. The primary reasons for the decline in fertility rates are increased consumer focus on education and career, as well as rise in global prices for housing, transportation, healthcare, and other basic necessities. These factors discourage the younger millennial and generation Z populations from having children, reducing the number of babies born globally. The decrease in the number of babies born has an impact on the sale of baby-related products, as demand for such products decreases significantly. This includes a decrease in demand for baby oral care products, which is projected to restrain the growth of the Baby Oral Care Market. 

Parents all over the world are more aware of the best practices to follow when they raise their children. The younger generation of parents is working hard to learn and study the proper techniques and procedures for raising children, as well as how to properly care for their physical, emotional, and mental needs. There has been a massive increase in awareness regarding the oral health of babies around the world, particularly in developing countries due to an increase in the rate of education in these countries, and an increase in disposable income and expenditure on baby care products. Parents have begun to invest more in baby oral care products to ensure that their babies do not develop dental problems in their later years. This increase in awareness about infant oral health care is expected to lead to an increase in the Baby Oral Care Market Size in the future.

Analyst Review

According to the CXOs of several leading companies, baby oral care products are being rapidly adopted by parents to maintain the oral hygiene of their children. Greater concern amongst parents, especially in the millennial and gen z population, are some of the primary boosting factors for the market, especially in the developed regions of the world where young parents are willing to spend large amounts of money on their children.  

There is a greater exposure of consumers in the developing regions of the world due to the urbanization of the regions as well as the increasing penetration of highly specified and value-added products in the regions. Parents in the region pay greater attention to the upbringing of their children, which includes the cultivation of proper mannerisms and hygiene techniques. This leads to an increase in the demand for baby oral care products in the region. However, the emerging trend of being childfree in the younger generation of consumers due to increased costs of living and lowering wage rates, coupled with a greater focus on education and career by both women and men may cause roadblocks to the market growth in the future.  

Innovations by engaged stakeholders in the form of the creation of electric toothbrushes for children as well as U-shaped toothbrushes that may brush all of the teeth together is expected to help supplement the growth of the baby oral care market. Furthermore, the increase in adoption of products such as baby tongue cleaners, gum soothing gels, tooth mousse, and gum wipes may augment the growth of the market in the future. Further spread of baby oral care products in developing regions across the world is anticipated to help the market grow in the future.
