Dublin, March 29, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global Invisible Orthodontics Market Size, Market Share, Application Analysis, Regional Outlook, Growth Trends, Key Players, Competitive Strategies and Forecasts, 2018 to 2026" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global invisible orthodontics market was valued at US$ 2,236.1 Mn in 2017 and is expected to reach US$ 7,020.7 Mn by 2026, expanding at a CAGR of 13.4% from 2018 to 2026.
Oral hygiene may be compromised with the use of traditional braces. Such factors have led to a growing demand for the new generation of orthodontic appliances such as clear aligners and ceramic braces.
Growing awareness about such solutions in the general population due to direct marketing by manufacturers and increasing disposable incomes are also prominent drivers of the global invisible orthodontics market.
Invisible orthodontic appliances are among the latest entrants in the range of orthodontic appliances. Clear aligners like the Invisalign have increased acceptance from adult patients due to acceptable aesthetics. These products are full-coverage, clear and removable, and are used standalone or following the use of fixed orthodontic appliances.
Clear aligners are also more comfortable for the patients and lead to less periodontal inflammation than fixed braces. However, such appliances only address minor to moderate misalignments and cannot treat severe conditions, thus serving only a fraction of the orthodontic patients. Increasing marketing by the manufacturers of invisible orthodontics has raised awareness of the public regarding this option.
Furthermore, technological advancements such as CAD/CAM have made orthodontic procedures faster, more efficient and simpler, while ensuring better treatment outcomes. This will also make way for more and more dental laboratories and clinics becoming able to offer clear aligners.
Experts are optimistic about the future of invisible orthodontics and the dental appliances market, overall. With faster treatment procedures and containment of material costs, dental laboratories are already becoming able to serve dentists at better prices.
Emerging regions such as the Asia Pacific and Latin America are already witnessing entry by the market players with their breakthrough products that already have a stronghold in North America and Europe.
In the future, it is anticipated that technological advancement, improving awareness about aesthetics and increasing disposable incomes, invisible appliances will become a frontrunner in the field of orthodontics.
