Dental Acrylics Market Segment Analysis - By Type

Heat-cured acrylic dominated the global dental acrylics market in 2021 and is growing at a CAGR of 3.9% during the forecast period. Heat-cured acrylic comes with several high-quality properties such as good impact resistance, flexural strength, exceptional curing properties, and high aesthetics, making it suitable for multiple applications such as denture base and tooth restorations. As per the March 2021 journal by Social Science Research Network, a test was carried out to evaluate the surface hardness of heat-cured acrylic and nylon denture base materials. The result concluded heat cure acrylic displayed the greatest surface hardness compared to nylon denture base materials. Such a robust portfolio of heat-cured acrylic is expected to increase its demand in the market during the forecast period.

Dental Acrylics Market Segment Analysis - By Application

Denture base dominated the global dental acrylics market in 2021 and is growing at a CAGR of 4.5% during the forecast period. The denture base is the custom-made part that helps in replacing an individual’s missing teeth and oral functions. A wide variety of dental acrylics such as heat-cured acrylic and self-cured acrylic are extensively used in the production of the denture base. Dental acrylics come with robust properties such as being less prone to cracking and breakage, offering high aesthetics, and exceptional curing properties, making them suitable for use in the denture base. The denture base application is exhibiting tremendous demand globally owing to the rising number of periodontal diseases and edentulism and this is expected to influence the market’s growth during the forecast period. For instance, as per the April 2019 report by Dowell Dental Group, the number of Americans missing teeth will rise in the next 15 years with a projected number affecting as many as 200 million in the US. Such rise in periodontal diseases and edentulism is expected to increase the use of denture base, increasing the requirement of dental acrylics and in turn, this will propel the market’s growth during the forecast period.

Dental Acrylics Market Segment Analysis - By Geography

The Asia-Pacific region held the largest share in the global dental acrylics market in 2021, with a market share of around 32.0%. The demand for dental acrylics is attributed to the expanding dental care sector in the region. Dental acrylics are used in several applications in the dental sector such as denture base, tooth restorations, artificial teeth, and instruments. The dental care sector in the region is expanding in the region and this is expected to bolster the use of dental acrylics in the forecast period. For instance, as per the data by India Brand Equity Foundation, the Indian medical device segment is projected to witness significant growth and is expected to reach US$ 11.86 billion in 2022 which was US$ 10.36 in 2020. Similarly, as per the October 2019 report by World Dental Federation (FDI), the China government announced the Healthy China 2030 initiative which includes provisions to enhance dental care in the country. Such massive growth in the dental care sector is expected to stimulate the demand for dental acrylics during the forecast period.

Dental Acrylics Market Drivers

Expanding dental care sector is driving the market’s growth

A wide range of dental acrylics heat-cured acrylic, light-cured, and self-cured are used in several applications in the dental care sector such as denture base, tooth restorations, artificial teeth, and instruments. The dental care sector is expanding globally with increasing awareness regarding better dental care and this is expected to augment the market’s growth during the forecast period. For instance, as per the 2020 report by Klynveld Peat Marwick and Goerdeler (KPMG), the US dental care sector is projected to expand at an annual rate of 3% until 2023. Similarly, as per the data by trade.gov, the dental products segment globally is projected to grow by 5.7% in 2022. Such a huge growth in the dental care sector globally is expected to increase the use of dental acrylics which in turn will influence the market’s growth during the forecast period.

The increasing demand for heat cured acrylic is influencing the market’s growth

Heat-cured acrylic is one of the highly used acrylics in the market. This type of dental acrylic has become a popular choice owing to its superior properties such as good impact resistance, flexural strength, and outstanding curing properties. Heat-cured acrylics are used in several applications such as denture base and tooth restorations. The demand for heat-cured acrylic is gaining traction owing to its robust portfolio and this is expected to contribute to the market’s growth during the forecast period. For instance, as per the May 2020 journal by Redalyc, 60 specimens of heat-cured resin were prepared for denture base. Similarly, as per the August 2020 journal by the Indian Prosthodontic Society Kerala State Branch, the flexural strength of heat-cured polymethyl methacrylate resin for denture base was increased with the addition of microcrystalline cellulose. Such growth in the heat-cured acrylic portfolio is expected to increase its demand, in turn driving the market’s growth during the forecast period.

Dental Acrylics Market Challenges

The harmful effect of dental acrylics in the mouth might hamper the market’s growth during the forecast period

Dental acrylics are associated with the formation of the harmful substance having an adverse impact on the tissues of the mouth which has been a challenge and this might hinder the market’s growth during the forecast period. As per the January 2019 journal by Academia International Journals, dental acrylics are mostly used in denture base, and during the polymerization reaction, all monomers don’t get converted to polymers and are left as a residual monomer. These residual monomers upon leaching to saliva lead to several cytotoxicity and allergic responses, ultimately damaging the cells and tissue in the mouth. Such harmful effect of dental acrylics restricts their widespread adoption and this might affect the market’s growth during the forecast period.
