The endodontic reparative cement market has seen the advent of a slew of bioactive endodontic cements for endodontic treatment. They have been extensively used in a range of regenerative endodontic procedures notably in perforation repairs, as apical materials in teeth with necrotic pulps, and root canal filling in surgical processes. More popularly, the endodontic reparative cement market has seen demands for these cements for maintaining periapical health in immature teeth with pulp necrosis and where roots are underdeveloped.
Regenerative endodontic procedures have witnessed the growing application of alkaline biomaterials, thereby aiding in the evolution of the endodontic reparative cement market. Growing numbers of dental restorative procedures around the world is driving the demands for materials with promising clinical applications. The advent of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) has reduced the treatment time and shown promising clinical outcomes.
The strides in the endodontic reparative cement market ride on the back of advances in regenerative endodontics. New materials have come to the fore for regenerative procedures in immature teeth with infected root canals, most prominently as irrigants in root canal treatments. Advances in clinical protocol for regenerative endodontics in developed economies have also shaped the trajectories of the endodontic reparative cement market. Over the past few years, extensive research has taken pertaining to chemical composition of the materials, opening new avenues in the market. A growing body of research has focused on efficacy as well as long-term effect of endodontic reparative cement.
Over the past few years, dental insurance plans have witnessed increased commercialization, thereby propelling new growth trajectories in the endodontic reparative cement market. The successful implementation of these plans in emerging economies has reduced out-of-pocket payments. Ambulatory surgical centers have witnessed substantial rise in the demands for endodontic reparative cements in dental care. Over the past few years, bioceramics-based materials have gained popularity in the endodontic reparative cement market. This is attributed to their better dimensional stability, bio-inertness, and an array of outstanding biocompatibility properties.
Vendors in the endodontic reparative cement market have been constantly focused on expanding their portfolio of dental care products to meet new protocols in endodontic regenerative care. They have been focusing on reducing the drawbacks from the use of cement materials. A case in point is developing products with better stability in regenerative procedures; this has driven the popularity of endodontic reparative cement materials that do not cause coronal tooth discoloration. A few key players in endodontic reparative cement market are unveiling bioceramics to consolidate their position in the market.
Several players are aiming at unveiling novel materials to gain a competitive edge over others in the endodontic reparative cement market. Most players are aiming to extending their stronghold over cost-sensitive markets, given the potentially vast revenue streams they present. Further, these markets have sparse distribution of manufacturers; most of them are regional ones. This factor has given them widespread potential to consolidate their geographic position in the endodontic reparative cement market.
The developed worlds have remained as sizable streams of revenues for vendors to the global endodontic reparative cement market. The U.S. and Europe have been at the forefront owing to a robust dental care infrastructure in North America. Also, these regions have witnessed extensive research in assessing new cement materials in regenerative endodontics over the past several years. However, in the coming years, developing economies will come at the center of attention for many globally prominent players. Also, growing numbers of people who come to dental centers for periapical health have offered a marked momentum to the regional market.
