Global Dental Sutures Market: Restraint
An increase in the availability of dental suture alternatives is expected to hamper the growth of the dental suture market over the forecast period. For instance, in July 2020, the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University announced that it’s tough gel adhesive technology had been licensed by Amend Surgical, a Florida-based medical device company. Through a licensing agreement coordinated by Harvard’s Office of Technology Development (OTD), Amend Surgical had been granted exclusive rights to initiate the development of the technology for applications within the field of oral surgery. The company aims to redefine the current standard of care, which often requires painful and irritating sutures to be placed by the clinician in the tight, difficult-to-access oral cavity.
Global Dental Sutures Market– Drivers
Increasing number of inorganic activities such as partnerships by market players is expected to drive the dental suture market over the forecast period. For instance, In December 2021, Healthium Medtech Limited, a company that provides a range of products to support surgical needs, announced a partnership with DKSH Business Unit Healthcare, Asia’s leading partner for healthcare companies. DKSH and Healthium expanded their partnership to encompass Thailand, Cambodia, and Laos, where DKSH will provide full-service representation, manage distribution, and market Healthium's surgical products.
Increasing prevalence of dental disorders globally is expected to drive the growth of the dental suture market over the forecast period.

The prevalence of mild to moderate periodontitis was 26.2%, while for severe periodontitis, it was 19% among adults in India.
