Global Dental Scalers Market Scope and Report Structure
Market Trends and Drivers
The market for ultrasonic dental scalers is anticipated to rise as a result of technological developments. For instance, a novel dental silencer was created in September 2018 by a Canadian developer to lessen the noise produced when using ultrasonic scalers. The novel device, which is small, portable, and reasonably priced and reduces fear, anxiety, and injury, has been submitted to Invent Help for licence or sale to manufacturers.
Market Restraints and Challenges
The market's expansion is anticipated to be hampered by the negative consequences connected with the usage of ultrasonic dental scalers. For instance, using ultrasonic scalers raises the temperature, which may be caused by friction between the scaler and the tooth, according to an article published in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) in February 2015. Furthermore, electromagnetic interference from ultrasonic scalers affects atrial and ventricular pacing in individuals with cardiac devices like pacemakers. Because of this, dentists are using ultrasonic dental scalers less frequently, which is limiting market growth.
