Clearwater, FL (PRWEB) November 07, 2016 -- The growing focus on cosmetic dentistry is not isolated to the United States. In fact, one report forecasts that the global cosmetic dentistry market is expected to reach $27.95 billion by the year 2024. The demand for cosmetic dentistry across the nation—and even worldwide—represents the newest growth sector in dentistry. As many dental practitioners have already noticed, increasing numbers of millennial patients are requesting cosmetic services and dental products to enhance their smiles and celebrate their individuality.

Millennials want to project an image of success, and part of that image includes whiter, straighter, more perfect teeth.

Cosmetic dentistry comprises dental procedures or products that change and improve the look of a person’s teeth, gums or bite. The focus of cosmetic dentistry is typically improvement of tooth position, color, alignment, shape and size, working towards a better-looking smile overall.1

Last year, cosmetic dentistry in the United States generated an estimated $16 billion in revenue.2 Much of this profit increase has been driven by millennial patients, and many dentists report millennials coming to them for cosmetic treatments such as teeth whitening, Invisalign and porcelain veneer application. Some dentists are also fielding requests for “dental bling”—crystal and gold jewelry that is applied to teeth.

Adrian LaTrace, CEO of Boyd Industries, explains why millennial patients are seeking more cosmetic procedures: “Almost all millennials take selfies—generally on a regular basis—to post to social media sites. They want to project an image of success, and part of that image includes whiter, straighter, more perfect teeth. Sometimes, they want to take it a step further with unique dental jewelry that really shows off their individual personality and style. They’re not afraid to invest a lot of money into getting the perfect smile—they want to look good for the world.”

It’s not just millennial consumers who are looking for cosmetic upgrades. Aging baby boomers who have more financial resources are expanding the market for more dental products.4 The American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons has estimated that 69% of adults between the ages of 35 and 44 have lost at least one permanent tooth. The increased focus on aesthetics has led to a growing number of adults seeking tooth replacement options such as dentures, crowns, bridges, and implants. They want to keep their smiles aesthetically pleasing, and are willing to use more of their discretionary income on cosmetic treatments and procedures.

The growing cosmetic dentistry trend comes as more dental practices seek to upgrade or replace their existing dental equipment. With the evolution of computers and dental equipment since the early 2000s, dentists have come to rely on such technology in their practices as ways of better educating and connecting with patients. With new advances in dental design technology systems, dentists report spending more time on the computer than they do actually working on patients.3 These design systems can be used for a variety of cosmetic purposes, such as mapping a patient’s teeth using 3D graphics to better visualize where implants or other dental products might be used. The technology is only expected to get better, and forward-thinking dentists are already looking for ways to integrate the newest and best cosmetic dental equipment into their practice.

However, the high cost to purchase some of these systems is preventing some practices from keeping up with current trends. Additionally, many cosmetic procedures are not currently reimbursed by insurance, which could limit the market’s growth if some providers choose not to take advantage of this growing consumer base.

LaTrace points out that, “It’s true that some of these cosmetic equipment systems require a substantial up-front investment. Insurance might not pay for the cosmetic procedures you’re performing once you purchase the equipment. But to be modern—to keep up with the demands of your patients and set yourself apart from your competition—you have to be willing to update your old dental equipment and position your practice to be able to provide cosmetic dentistry services.” He explains that this is the way the market is trending, and if one is not prepared to move with it, one’s practice could be left behind.
