Gutta-percha Industry Overview
The global gutta-percha market size is expected to reach USD 268.82 million by 2027, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. It is expected to expand at a CAGR of 5.77% from 2021 to 2027. Gutta-percha is a trans-isomer of polyisoprene and the molecular structure of the material is close to that of natural rubber that crystallizes, leading to a rigid form. Physical properties of GP like high tensile strength, biocompatibility, bioinertness, and radiopacity have made gutta-percha a very effective material for root canal obturation and endodontic surgery wherein this thermoplastic filling material is heated and suffused into the dentin canal, then sealed with adhesive cement.
Factors like the rising prevalence of dental caries, increasing awareness about oral hygiene, and the rising geriatric population and their escalating need for preventive and surgical dental services are boosting the market growth. According to the WHO, consumption of tobacco and alcohol and an unhealthy diet are among the few common causes of oral diseases globally. All these oral diseases require professional dental care, thereby acting as high impact-rendering factors for the growth of the dental gutta-percha market.
