Dental biomaterials are specialized instruments designed to be used in dentistry. They are fabricated structures, which are used to restore the damaged, decayed, or fractured teeth. Dental biomaterials not only replace the damaged or missing tooth tissues but also promote tissue regeneration and prevent healthy tooth tissue. The center for dental biomaterials focuses on maintaining and restoring oral health for patients through materials science study and interactions. Dental biomaterials contain natural tissues and biocompatible synthetic materials.
In 2018, the Straumann Group acquired a 30% stake in its biomaterials partner, Botiss Medical AG, for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition enabled Straumann to expand its dental biomaterials portfolio. In 2018, Henry Schein, Inc. acquired Intra-Lock, a provider of dental restoration solutions. This acquisition will help Henry Schein, Inc. strengthen and expands its global dental implant business.
Increase in prevalence of dental disorders, rise in geriatric population, and rise in dental tourism in emerging countries are the major factors that drive the growth of the global dental biomaterials market. Moreover, increase in disposable income in developing countries and the rise in awareness in regards with the importance of dental implants in middle and low income countries will help to boost the market growth during the forecast period. However, stringent regulation for the approval of novel dental biomaterials and the lengthy clinical process can hamper the market growth. In addition, the shortage of good dental professionals can thwart the market growth.
The global dental biomaterials market is segmented based on type, application, end user, and region. Depending on type, the market is divided into metallic biomaterials, ceramic biomaterials, metal-ceramic, polymeric biomaterials, natural biomaterials. Metallic biomaterials are further segmented into titanium, stainless steel, chromium alloys, and other metallic biomaterials.
