Italy Oral Care Market Overview, 2028

Italy Oral Care Market Overview, 2028

Italian consumers are concerned about oral hygiene and seek performance products that are also convenient. Despite the fact that the crisis has remained stable in the last year, Italians have realized how important good oral hygiene is in helping to prevent problems in the oral cavity; additionally, oral hygiene is experienced with a positive approach, associated with feelings of well-being, freshness, and self-confidence. Because the Italian welfare system does not guarantee dental care, and the private system is expensive, Italians try to take care of their teeth by deferring visits to the dentist. Furthermore, healthcare is provided for all Italian citizens and residents, and it is primarily provided by public providers, with some private or public-private partnerships. Only 5-8% of oral healthcare services are provided by the public healthcare system. Except for children under the age of 16, vulnerable populations, and people in economic or emergency need, dental care is generally not covered. 3M, A-Dec Inc., Biolase Inc., Carestream Health Inc., Dentsply Sirona, and Envista Holdings Corporation, are among the key players in Italy's Oral Care Market. Further, Marvis, Pasta Del Capitano, and Antica Erboristeria are Toothpaste brands that are well-known in Italy.

According to the report, Italy Oral Care Market Overview, 2028, published by Bonafide Research, the market is anticipated to add USD 0.36 Billion by 2028. Urbanization is accelerating quickly. Italy is becoming more aware of the benefits of organic personal care products, particularly dental care products, due to increased purchasing power and increased advertising of naturally derived goods. Consumer purchasing habits are shifting toward eco-friendly, natural, and organic items as a result of the COVID-19 epidemic. Manufacturers are creating unique products to attract consumers' attention, which helps increase brand awareness and customer loyalty while also preventing oral diseases and encouraging oral hygiene. These products include bamboo brushes and vegan toothpaste. The Oral Care Market in Italy is dominated by supermarkets and hypermarkets. Conad, Selex, Coop, Végé, and Agorà are the largest hypermarkets and supermarkets in Italy. Conad is Italy's largest supermarket chain, with approximately 3,300 locations across the country. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in internet usage and the use of e-commerce websites to purchase items such as toothbrushes, toothpaste, mouthwash, and so on. Carrefour, Walmart, Amazon, and other well-known vertical specialists are attracted to the market.

As per World Bank, Italy's population is 59.07 Million people in 2021, with 28.78 Million men and 30.29 Million women.

According to a recent study, Italy ranks second only to the Netherlands in terms of having all of its own teeth without fillings or implants (26%). In terms of oral care habits, Italians are fairly average and do not differ significantly from the rest of Europe. Just over half (51%) brush twice a day and 35% use fluoride toothpaste for two minutes. Electric air flossers and interdental cleaners are used more frequently than elsewhere in Europe, with Italy ranking second in the world (20%). When they are sick, 20% of people skip brushing their teeth.

Customers with dry mouth, diabetes, or systemic diseases like Sjogren's syndrome, as well as that undergoing radiation therapy, use alcohol-free mouthwashes, which is assisting the segment's growth in the area. The importance of including mouthwashes in a primary oral care routine, such as before or after brushing and at various points throughout the day, to maintain the pH of the mouth and combat bacteria that can cause a variety of gum diseases is being emphasized by important players in developing economies.

Covid - 19 Impacts:
COVID-19 has had no impact on the Italy oral care market because several products, such as sensitive toothpaste, are required on a daily basis. Several efforts to increase oral health literacy are being supported by the government and public entities. In some areas, social media served as a bridge to raise awareness. The launch of new items in marketplaces with extra health care and discounts drew the market's attention, resulting in an increase in demand. There has been an increase in consumer demand for toothpaste brands such as Signal, Colgate, Sanogyi, Oral-B, Aquafresh, Sensodyne, Elmex, Arthrodont, Teraxyi, Tonigencyi, and many innovative products on the market. Consumer purchasing power, availability of oral care products, competitive pricing, convenience, and health awareness continue to boost oral care product sales.
