France Dental Equipment Market Analysis

The France Dental Equipment Market is expected to witness a CAGR of 6.8% over the forecast period (2022-2027).

The demand for dental equipment has been hampered by the present COVID-19 scenario, which has reduced the number of visits to hospitals and clinics for oral care. According to the study titled "Application of recommended preventive measures against COVID-19 could help mitigate the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection during dental practice: Results from a follow-up survey of French dentists" published in the PLOS One Journal in December 2021, stated that dentists were thought to be at significant risk of infection during the initial wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. Dentists in France stopped performing normal clinical procedures during COVID-19 and focused entirely on treating dental emergencies. Thus, such incidents hampered the market's growth in the initial phase of the outbreak, however, the market is anticipated to gain traction over the coming years.

Certain factors that are driving the market growth include the growing aging population, increasing demand for cosmetic dentistry, rising incidence of dental diseases, and innovation in dental products. The United Nations Population Fund's World Population Dashboard's Statistics 2021 shows that about 21.1% of individuals in France were 65 or older in the same year. Elderly individuals with poor cognitive health face difficulty in managing medical conditions, medications, or other self-care, such as dental hygiene, the need for dental equipment in France is thus predicted to increase. Due to the increasing aging population, there has been a rise in the number of dental implants and oral surgeries being executed.

There are several other risk factors, such as smoking, poor oral hygiene, diabetes, medication, and hereditary conditions, which are also associated with the increase in dental diseases. There is a high prevalence of dental diseases in France which contributed to the market growth. As per a June 2021 published study titled, “Early predictors of childhood caries among 4-year-old children: a population-based study in north-eastern France”, a total of 425 subjects with completed questionnaires and clinical examinations were included. The prevalence of early childhood carries, and severe early childhood caries were 15.8% and 5.9%, respectively. Thus, with the growing prevalence of the various diseases it is expected that the demand for dental equipment is expected to increase over the forecast period.

Furthermore, market players are strategically involved in partnerships and collaborations to deploy new technologies in the field, driving the growth of the market in the region. For instance, in July 2021, SpineGaurd announced the strengthening of its strategic partnership with ConfiDent ABC. The expanded agreement involves the exchange and sharing of new intellectual property beyond the use of DSG (Dynamic Surgical Guidance) technology in the field of dental implantology. Moreover, the market players in the country are focused on bringing an innovative solution that boosts the dental implant market to the next level. For instance, in February 2020, SpineGuard and Adin Dental Implant Systems announce the successful completion of a study demonstrating the benefits of DSG technology for dental implant placement. Therefore, it is anticipated that the introduction of this technology would lead to an increase in dental implant procedures and the expansion of the market.
