Market Overview:
Dentures are artificial tooth prostheses that are placed in the mouth of patients who have lost some or all of their teeth. Dentures are either complete or partial and are made from a variety of materials like acrylic, porcelain and metallic alloys. They help restore function, aesthetics and confidence in patients. Advances in AI and 3D printing have improved the fabrication and fit of dentures.
Market key trends:
One of the key trends in the dentures market is the rising adoption of AI and machine learning technologies. Dental professionals are increasingly using AI-based software and algorithms to design, customize and 3D print dentures with improved fit and aesthetics. AI enhances every step of the denture fabrication process from diagnosis and treatment planning to final prosthetic design. It analyzes medical scans, anatomical landmarks and thousands of patient records to 3D model highly customized dentures matching individual needs. This has streamlined workflow, shortened production times and improved patient outcomes. The use of AI reduces chair-side adjustments needed and frequency of remakes, thus fueling demand for AI-powered dentures.
