Gutta-percha Market to Grow with a CAGR of 6.01% through 2028
Increased awareness of dental health, the prevalence
of dental caries, and advancements in dental techniques are expected to drive
the Global Gutta-percha Market growth in the forecast period, 2024-2028.
According to TechSci Research report, “Gutta-percha
Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast &
Opportunities, 2028”, the Global Gutta-percha Market stood at USD 201.04 million
in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 5.85% in the forecast period,
2024-2028. This can be attributed to lifestyle factors. Lifestyle factors also
contribute to the growth of the gutta-percha market. Unhealthy habits such as
tobacco and alcohol consumption, as well as poor dietary choices, are
recognized as common causes of oral diseases by the World Health Organization
(WHO). These habits can lead to various dental issues, including the need for
root canal treatments. As a result, the demand for gutta-percha and related
dental materials is driven by the consequences of these lifestyle choices.
Additionally, dental tourism and international
collaboration are likely to continue expanding the global reach of the
gutta-percha market. As patients seek high-quality dental care at competitive
prices in various destinations, the demand for gutta-percha in these regions
will grow.

The primary risk factor for the development of dental
caries is insufficient fluoride intake, while secondary risk factors encompass
aspects such as socioeconomic status, behavior, dietary habits, social
standing, and demographic factors. According to the FDI World Dental
Federation, oral diseases affect a staggering 3.9 billion people globally, with
untreated dental caries impacting nearly half (44%) of the world's population.
This makes it the most prevalent dental condition among the 291 conditions
examined in the Global Burden of Disease Study. The American Dental Association
reports that in the United States, 58% of individuals visit a dentist annually,
and 15% seek dental care due to mouth pain. Their survey also reveals that 85%
of the U.S. population places significant importance on their dental health,
recognizing oral health as an integral part of overall well-being.
Most oral health issues are preventable and can be
effectively addressed when detected early. Conditions like dental caries can be
readily identified during routine dental check-ups, and decayed tooth tissue
can be treated through procedures like fillings, crowns, and root canals,
reducing the risk of severe infections. Dental resin and glass ionomer
sealants, such as gutta-percha, are applied to vulnerable tooth fissures,
creating a protective surface that is easy to clean and helps prevent tooth
decay. Consequently, the increasing prevalence of caries is expected to drive
growth in the dental adhesive and sealant market in the foreseeable future.
However, the World Health Organization (WHO) notes that treating dental caries
can be costly, accounting for 5-10% of healthcare budgets in developed nations
and posing a significant economic burden.
Furthermore, as per the Journal of Dental and Allied
Sciences, commercially available gutta-percha points may exhibit cytotoxic
properties due to the addition of substances, particularly zinc, for
radiopacity in the base material. These substances have the potential to leach
into surrounding soft tissues, leading to inflammation in the jaw and necrosis
of the periodontal ligament, which could hinder market expansion.
The Global Gutta-percha Market is segmented into product
type, end-use, regional distribution, and company.
Based on its product type, the largest market share
was held by surface-modified gutta-percha in 2022. The global market is divided
into three product types: surface-modified gutta-percha, medicated
gutta-percha, and nanoparticles-enriched gutta-percha. Surface-modified
gutta-percha was the dominant choice in 2020 because it forms a strong seal
along the dentinal walls of the root canal. This is attributed to its
hydrophilic nature and its ability to create a monoblock through chemical
bonding, especially when coated with resin or glass ionomer.
Over the forecast period, nanoparticles-enriched
gutta-percha is projected to experience the highest CAGR. This is primarily due
to advancements in obturation techniques. Nanoparticles-enriched gutta-percha
has been developed to minimize the risk of root canal reinfection and enhance
treatment outcomes. It incorporates nanoparticles of diamond and silver into
the gutta-percha material, leveraging their beneficial properties, which
include versatile faceted surface chemistry and biocompatibility. These
nanoparticles play a crucial role in improving the mechanical properties of the
material.
Based on end-use, the dental hospitals category
dominated the market share in 2022 based on its specific usage. The market is
divided into three segments: dental hospitals, dental clinics, and dental
academic and research institutes. The prominent position of dental hospitals
can be attributed to the presence of highly skilled professionals and advanced
equipment within hospital environments.
Looking ahead, the dental clinics segment is expected
to experience significant growth during the forecast period. This is primarily
due to the efficient execution of less invasive procedures such as dental
fillings and root canals in clinics, offering patients shorter waiting times
for treatment.
