Market CAGR for bioceramics is biocompatible ceramic materials used in medical applications such as dental implants, bone substitutes, and joint replacements. A prominent driver of the bioceramics market is the increasing demand for bioceramics in medical applications. The rising frequency of chronic ailments such as osteoporosis, arthritis, and dental problems is boosting demand for bioceramics in medical applications. Bioceramics are extremely biocompatible and can be utilized in a variety of medical operations without generating any negative side effects in the body. Furthermore, bioceramics have outstanding mechanical features such as high strength, durability, and wear resistance, making them ideal for use in medical implants.
Furthermore, the increased emphasis on research and development operations to produce new bioceramic materials with improved features is propelling the bioceramics market forward. For example, scientists are investigating the use of bioceramics in tissue engineering applications to create artificial organs and tissues.
Another driver of the bioceramics market is the growing demand for bioceramics in orthopedic applications such as hip and knee replacements. Bioceramics are frequently employed in orthopedic applications because to their outstanding mechanical qualities, biocompatibility, and ability to connect with bone tissue.
For instance, due to its great strength, wear resistance, and biocompatibility, zirconia-toughened alumina (ZTA) bioceramics are frequently employed in hip and knee replacements. ZTA bioceramics have a low friction coefficient, which helps to reduce wear and tear on the implant, resulting in a longer implant life.
In addition, the growing number of people suffering from orthopedic illnesses including osteoarthritis and osteoporosis is pushing demand for bioceramics in orthopedic applications. Osteoarthritis is the most common joint ailment, affecting more than 10% of men and 18% of women over the age of 60, according to the World Health Organization.
The growing medical sector in developing countries, as well as the use of these ceramics in electronic devices, has been identified as key growth drivers in the bio-ceramics and piezoceramics markets. Because of an aging population, certain emerging countries are seeing an increase in osteoarthritis. To solve this issue, these ceramics are used in hip replacement and knee implants. Ceramics have high tensile and compressive strength, which makes them ideal for use as implants. Furthermore, there is an increasing need for these ceramics in the production of healthcare devices including as hearing aids, artificial joints, and cardiovascular device components.
According to the World Health Organization, oral problems represent a significant health burden for many nations, affecting nearly 3.5 billion people. Examples include dental caries, oro-dental trauma, oral cancer, and periodontal (gum) disease. As a result, spending on dental treatment has skyrocketed.
Bioceramics in dental applications is a growing segment. As the number of people suffering from chronic diseases increases, the demand for bioceramics will also increase. In addition to this, the growing number of dental procedures will drive growth of the market. It includes tooth fillings, pulp capping, and alveolar ridge augmentation. Increasing demand for new and advanced products is expected to propel growth of market.
April 2023: FKG Dentaire added new bioceramic products, BC Universal RRM and BC Universal Sealer, to its endodontic obturation portfolio across the European Union (EU), Israel, and the United Kingdom.
The Bioceramics Market segmentation, based on Material includes Aluminum Oxide, Zirconia, Calcium Phosphate And Others. During the projection period, zirconia is expected to dominate the market. Zirconia, a highly sought-after bioinert ceramic substance, is expected to increase rapidly. Furthermore, it is employed in the production of ceramic-based crowns, bridges, and other implant devices. Similarly, hydroxyapatite on cellulose fibres is used to reinforce dental restorations.
The Bioceramics Market segmentation, based on Application, includes Orthopedic, Dental Implants, Biomedical and Others. Bioceramics demand in dental implants category is the fastest growing segment inf the market in 2022, making it the second most important category after orthopedics. Because ceramic-based crowns and bridges have tints that closely resemble the original teeth crowns, the dental implants sector is likely to be a key market driver.
