Preventive dentistry is the practice of caring for teeth to keep them healthy. This helps to avoid cavities, gum disease, enamel wear, and more. There are many forms of preventive dentistry, such as daily brushing and dental cleanings. To maintain optimal oral health, the American Dental Association (ADA) recommends visits to the dentist at regular intervals determined by a dentist. These practices are designed to ensure that teeth are clean, strong, and white. Preventive dentistry prevents people from developing dental problems later on. If there is a use of proper dental care, it avoid or lessen the effects of these: cavities, gingivitis, enamel loss, periodontitis. Everyone benefits from preventive dentistry. Children, in particular, benefit because it allows their newly developing adult teeth to come in strong and healthy. Dental sealants and topical fluoride treatments help prevent decay in your children’s teeth. Aging adult, can benefit from preventive dentistry because it helps them to keep their real teeth. Oral health is connected to the health of the body as a whole. This is because the mouth is a breeding ground for harmful bacteria. Maintaining a clean mouth benefits your overall health. Hence, focus on the prevention of oral diseases has become a priority throughout the world.
Covid-19 Scenario analysis:
In March, regulators and health authorities recommended that dental offices immediately stop seeing patients, except for emergency treatment. The resulting office closures led to unprecedented revenue declines across the sector. The key thing, is that unlike many other businesses, much of this is a deferral of revenue, not the loss of revenue. This is very different than many businesses. COVID-19 does not reverse tooth decay or make impacted wisdom teeth go away. That restoration will still need to be done, and those wisdom teeth will still need to be extracted. There will be lost hygiene revenue, and depending upon how the eventual recovery goes, revenue for some elective procedures may be lost. But unlike many businesses, that deferred revenue is building up a back log that will help the recovery in the dental industry far more than many others. In addition, dentists have been able to shed most, but not all, costs. Most offices immediately laid off staff. Supplies and lab costs are not incurred until patients are back. So, with the exception of rent, most offices pared costs to the point that their economic survival is not threatened. In addition, unlike many small businesses, most practice owners have sufficient assets to withstand business interruptions for longer periods, especially with the government support programs that have been implemented.
Top impacting factors: Market Scenario Analysis, Trends, Drivers and Impact analysis:
Drivers:
Increase in geriatric population with dental problems:
According to WHO in developed countries such as the U.S., older people face a host of impediments to continuing dental care, said Dr. Barbara Gooch, an oral health expert from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). After retirement they may be unable to afford dental care. If they become less mobile, they may not be able to get to the dentist, hence preventive care is of utmost importance. The results of oral health problems reverberate throughout the body. Nutritional problems are the immediate result of problems with chewing, which can start long before tooth loss. “The mouth is the gateway to the digestive system,” Acuna said, adding that caregivers tend to think that if an older person is eating, then he or she is fine. But chewing difficulty makes people shun foods that they can’t swallow easily, and those are often ones with fiber and essential nutrients, such as fruit and vegetables. Sometimes people gravitate toward softer, processed foods which are often laden with sugar. On the flipside, some people stop eating enough and lose weight. “The point in public health is that if oral health promotion and disease prevention are integrated with non-communicable and chronic disease prevention, we can make progress for better oral health and prevention of oral diseases worldwide,” Petersen said. Even farther under the health-systems radar are the psychological problems associated with having discolored, diseased or missing teeth. The person becomes uncomfortable socializing, loses self-esteem and begins a spiral of decline. But that much of the damage is preventable with the help of Dental preventive supplies. Starting people on dental care programs and exposing them to fluoridated water and toothpaste improves dental health regardless of a person’s age. Increasing the ratio of dentists to population, especially in poorer areas, is essential, as is educating caregivers such as workers in homes for the elderly. Alerting general medical practitioners on what to look for is also necessary. In the United States in the 1950s — as was the case with most industrialized countries — more than half of the people aged 65 and over had lost all their teeth, the CDC’s Gooch said. Now it is less than 30%. In addition to educating health professionals, CDC emphasizes the role patients can play in maintaining and monitoring their own oral health by taking preventive measure and avoiding delay.
Increase in Dental clinics and Dental problems:
Increase in the number of dental clinics in developed countries and the growth of dental clinics play a significant role in the growth of dental preventive supplies market. A significant increase in the prevalence of dental caries mainly due to unhealthy lifestyle, smoking i.e. Regular tobacco use can turn white teeth into ones that are yellow or brown. And excessive consumption of alcohol among the young populations increases the demand of dental products. There is also an increase in the adoption of various prevention products through increased awareness regarding the oral disease. These factors which will further increase the demand for dental preventive supplies market in the forecast period.
Restrains:
Excessive teeth cleaning causing sensitized tooth:
The seriousness of the side effects of teeth cleaning is definitely dependent on the frequency of visits to the dental clinic, that is, the more often oral health is maintained, in a professional manner, the less sensitivity patients experience post a teeth cleaning session. But for the ones, avoiding dental clinic visits, or delaying dental procedures or routine check-ups, the sensitivity will be at a level that is quite high. Red gums will be a normal thing after a teeth cleaning procedure. Such red gums only indicate bleeding, which yet again, usually happens to the individuals who haven’t been regulars at the dental clinic.
