The dental mirrors market is expected to grow from US$ 322.31 million in 2022 to US$ 505.44 million by 2028; it is expected to grow with a CAGR of 7.8% from 2022 to 2028.
The increasing prevalence of dental diseases, surging demand for dental cosmetic procedures, and a rising number of dentists and dental clinics are the major factors boosting the market.
The incidence of dental and oral conditions, including tooth canal infection, dry mouth, tooth loss, cavities, and dental trauma, is rising worldwide. According to the WHO’s Global Burden of Disease 2019 study, around 3.5 billion people worldwide suffer from oral diseases, especially tooth caries. The increasing prevalence rate of dental problems, such as crooked teeth, spaces between teeth, overbites, and teeth overcrowding, has increased the need for dental procedures to treat such, which, in turn, drives the growth of the dental mirrors market. For instance, as per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 47.2% of the adults in the age group above 30 years have some periodontal disease in the US, and it increases with age, with around 70.1% of adults over the age of 65 years have periodontal disease in 2020.
Furthermore, the population in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) has a comparatively higher prevalence of oral diseases, and it continues to increase with growing urbanization and lifestyle changes. According to a study by the University of Gondar, Ethiopia, the prevalence rate of oral diseases, especially in sub-Saharan Africa, was 40.98%, for Ethiopia, 52.4%; Sudan and Kenya have a prevalence rate of 50.3%, and Tanzania has a prevalence rate of 40.2% in 2020. This high prevalence is primarily caused due to inadequate exposure to fluoride in oral hygiene products or within water supply, availability of food with high sugar content, and poor access to oral health services in the community. The growing food and beverages with high sugar content and tobacco and alcohol consumption are contributing to oral health conditions and other non-communicable diseases.
