Increasing prevalence of dental diseases such as tooth decay and periodontal diseases is a key factor driving the demand for root canal procedures and related dental irrigators. Technological advancements in root canal irrigators allowing for improved cleaning and disinfection of the root canal during procedures has boosted their adoption among dentists. Rise in dental tourism in low cost countries is another factor supporting the growth of this market. However, high costs associated with dental treatments and lack of awareness especially in underdeveloped regions continue to restrain the market growth to a certain extent. The emergence of low cost root canal irrigators may help address some of these challenges in the coming years.

Market Driver - Rising prevalence of dental caries and other dental diseases

Dental caries and other dental diseases have been rising at an alarming rate across the globe. Poor diet, lack of oral hygiene, increasing sugar consumption, and growing substance abuse are some of the major factors responsible for this rise. Dental cavities and tooth decay have significantly increased among both children and adults in the last few decades. According to the World Health Organization, dental cavities are considered as one of the most prevalent diseases globally, affecting over 2.3 billion people worldwide. It is now a well-known fact that sugary foods and drinks are the major culprits that promote the growth of cavity-causing bacteria in the mouth. Due to fast-paced lifestyles and changing dietary patterns, intake of these carbs has multiplied significantly across regions. Moreover, chewing of tobacco and smoking cigarettes has acted as a catalyst for various dental diseases among people. Periodontal diseases such as gingivitis and advanced gum diseases have also risen substantially. They lead to inflammation and infection of gums and bones supporting the teeth. If left untreated, they can even cause tooth loss over time.

All these factors have placed immense strain on dental practices and prompted more people to seek dental treatments. The rising incidence of dental caries and related conditions have pushed up the demand for endodontic procedures significantly. Root canal treatment has emerged as one of the most common restorative procedures performed by dentists to save infected or decayed teeth. It involves cleaning, shaping, and filling the dental pulp chamber and root canal system. Precision irrigation plays a pivotal role in this treatment for effective disinfection and removal of tissues inside the tooth. Powerful and high-quality root canal irrigators have become indispensable for dental practitioners. Their demand has grown in tandem with increasing volumes of such complex endodontic procedures worldwide.
