- The KSA Dental Services Market is driven by the rising demand for oral cleanliness, self-grooming and artificial dentistry
Factors like the aging population in Saudi Arabia, snowballing burden of oral diseases and technological advancements in dentistry along with an inclination toward the use of minimally invasive procedures and artificial dentistry are propelling the growth in KSA Dental Services Market.
- Limited knowledge regarding Preventive Dental Health Measures and certain Misconceptions amongst Patients are some of the key challenges faced by Dental Services Market in KSA
As per a survey conducted by Saudi Ministry of Health, the scarcity of dental health providers was highlighted in regions like Jazan and others. Additionally, inequalities in dental healthcare were emphasized where individuals with the same needs having different abilities to pay may not receive equal dental services. Dental caries is one of the most prevalent infectious diseases in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. There is limited knowledge regarding preventive dental health measures in some regions of KSA. Also, lack of knowledge and misconceptions regarding dental health of children amongst parents restricts them from opting professional dental services.
- Tech focused treatments along with the Use of Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality are driving the Adoption of Digital Innovation in the Region.
New treatment standards and guidelines recommend using digital solutions. Stricter data handling requirements due to PDPL have resulted in the digitalization of work and information flows (e.g., patient journal management) with tech focused treatments are becoming a norm. Demand for advanced esthetic and orthodontic treatments is enabled by the increase in digital solutions. Hardware is becoming more commoditized as entry-level solutions provide adequate quality and higher dependency on quality software. Affordable solutions minimize the cost benefit of outsourcing, thereby reversing the trend of outsourcing production to KSA. Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality are the upcoming trends in technological advancements in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
