Rise in adoption of advanced dentistry technologies, is expected to drive the global dental crowns and bridges market growth
CAD/CAM (computer-aided-design and computer-aided-manufacturing) technology are used in dentistry. It allows the delivery of well-fitting, aesthetic, and durable prosthetics for the patient. CAD/CAM complements earlier technologies used for these purposes by any combination of increasing the speed of design and creation, increasing the convenience or simplicity of the design, creation, and insertion processes, and making possible restorations. For instance, Zimmer-Biomet, supply CAD software that can be easily integrated in the laboratory, and helps in anatomically reducing the frameworks to be constructed.
Lack of reimbursement for dental crowns and bridges is likely to restrict the market growth
The cost associated with dental procedures is increasing exponentially. In developed regions, dental crowns and bridges are treated as cosmetic products by most insurance companies. Hence, they provide minimal or no reimbursements for dental crowns and bridges. As a result, patients have to bear the major portion of the cost out of their pocket for these procedures.
