NEW YORK, New York – The worldwide market for implant-baseddental reconstruction products will approach nearly $3.5 billion by 2010,according to a new study released today from Kalorama Information. Althoughthe dental implant sector accounts for only about 9% of the global dentalmarket, it is the fastest growing segment with a forecast growth rate ofalmost 15%.

The new study, Implant-Based Dental Reconstruction: The Worldwide Implantand Bone Graft Market, estimates that growth in implant devices and abutmentsand dental bone grafts will outstrip other areas of dental devices andproducts. The aging of the developed world's population will, despite improveddental health, actually create a larger potential market and provide anexcellent opportunity for suppliers and innovators.

"With oral health improving and people living longer, the number of teethto be maintained is increasing at a rate faster than the population isgrowing," notes Anne Anscomb, the author of the final report. "It was oncethought that the decline in dental caries, particularly in children, wouldresult in reducing the treatment needs of the population. Instead theopposite is true: Increasing retention of teeth has created new needs andgreater demand. As adults retain more teeth, they experience a greaterseverity of periodontal involvement, which is the leading cause of toothloss."

This study provides a comprehensive analysis of available dental implantand bone graft products, including etiology and epidemiological data for toothloss. Market size, growth, and competitive market share are provided for eachsegment, and revenue distribution by world geographical region is estimated.In addition, the report thoroughly reviews clinical, demographic, andregulatory trends and profiles 15 key competitors.
