3^rdAnnual Meeting on Pedodontics and Geriatric Dentistry May 25-26 New York City, New York, USA

Market Analysis

According to census figures, the next fastest growing segment of the U.S. population is the group under 18. By 2020 this segment is expected to top 80 million.

But this rise brings increasing challenges as well, notably more caries. In the United States, 28% of preschoolers have untreated caries, compared to 14% of school-aged children. Approximately 4.5 million kids are estimated to suffer from early childhood caries. By the time they leave high school, it's estimated 80% of students have untreated caries.

The consequences of untreated caries - diseases and a variety of complex issues - are well known. No wonder their incidence among American children has been called a silent epidemic.

What is impeding efforts to care for these children is the sheer imbalance of the numbers. Despite escalating population gains, only 5,000 dentists specialize in pediatric care. Put another way, 178,000 dentists in the United States don't have special training to treat children.

Increase in Income & Dental Health Awareness

According to the report, rising disposable incomes of patients coupled with growing dental care awareness will drive the dental equipment market in the developing Asian countries.

In the developed regions of North America and Western Europe, market growth will be driven mainly by the aging population possessing a desire to retain natural tooth structure.

In 2011, North America was the leader in terms of market share and is expected to maintain its leadership position in 2018. This can be attributed to the rapid adoption of advanced technologies such as CAD/CAM, along with relatively higher dental-health awareness across the population.
