Growing Geriatric Population

Japan restorative dentistry market is deeply influenced by the country's aging demographic. Japan is currently transforming its population, marked by a substantial portion of its population being in the elderly category. With natural aging, individuals often encounter dental problems such as tooth decay, gum disease, and tooth loss, necessitating various restorative dental procedures. The demographic shift has spurred a notable surge in the demand for restorative dental services, encompassing treatments like dental implants, dentures, and crowns. In addition, the elderly population is increasingly prioritizing the maintenance of oral health and aesthetics. The heightened awareness has led to a surge of interest in restorative dentistry to improve the functional aspects of their teeth and enhance their overall smile and appearance.

Inclusion of Dentistry in Universal Health Insurance

The government's steadfast commitment to universal healthcare has played a pivotal role in advancing the Japan restorative dentistry market. By ensuring access to essential dental services for all citizens, they promote oral health and well-being. It fosters a culture of preventive dentistry and creates a significant patient base for restorative procedures. Government initiatives and policies geared toward expanding dental healthcare access further drive the growth of the restorative dentistry sector in Japan. The nation's resilient healthcare system is all-encompassing, featuring a robust preventive care component that incorporates complimentary screening exams and comprehensive prenatal and postnatal programs, encompassing both health and dental assessments. Dental care in Japan falls under the umbrella of universal health insurance. Within the system, the government regulates the costs of individual procedures and medications through a national standardized fee schedule. Due to this extensive coverage, it is possible to track the utilization of dental services through national statistics. Dentists submit detailed claims for each patient monthly, facilitating efficient record-keeping and billing in the system.

Increasing Demand for Composites

Composites, a type of tooth-colored dental filling material, maintain their status as a preferred choice for dental restorations in Japan. The enduring popularity is attributed to several factors. Composites provide excellent aesthetic results, closely resembling the natural tooth color, making them a preferred choice for cosmetic restorations. They offer strong adhesive properties, reducing the need for extensive tooth removal, which benefits overall tooth structure preservation. Furthermore, the ongoing advancements in composite materials and bonding techniques ensure they provide durable and long-lasting results. The consistent demand for composites in Japan restorative dentistry market underscores their reliability and continued relevance in dental practice. Tokuyama Dental launched Omnichroma Flow Bulk in February 2023. Omnichroma Flow Bulk is a low viscosity, light-curing, radiopaque composite that is available in infinite shade matching – from A1 to D4 with in-depth curing – a single bulk-fill flowable for all shades.

High Demand for CAD/CAM Systems

Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems are witnessing high demand in Japan restorative dentistry market. These systems revolutionize the way dental restorations are designed and created. They offer numerous advantages, such as precision, efficiency, and convenience. Dentists use CAD/CAM technology to create crowns, bridges, and other restorations with exceptional accuracy, reducing the margin for error. It ensures better-fitting prosthetics and enhances patient satisfaction. Moreover, CAD/CAM systems streamline the production process, saving time and reducing labor costs. The growing adoption of these technologies underscores their pivotal role in advancing restorative dentistry in Japan.

In April 2023, Kuraray Noritake Dental Co., Ltd. introduced Katana Zirconia One. The innovative product is a block-shaped dental ceramic known for its remarkable translucency and smooth color gradients, designed for crafting zirconia crowns and bridges. Katana Zirconia One is exclusively tailored for use with Dentsply Sirona's CAD/CAM system, "CEREC," primarily for dental clinics.

Future Market Scenario
