MARKET DRIVERS

The growing importance of teeth whitening among people is one of the factors propelling the market growth.

Teeth whitening has become one of the most important aspects of personality. People nowadays are highly conscious about how they look and how others think and perceive them. Due to these factors, people of all ages are investing considering money in looking better. It is believed among people that whiter teeth instantly improve your appearance and alter how other people perceive you. According to studies, people with whiter teeth are considered more companionable, friendly, and attractive. Most people who have had teeth whitening procedures claim that it helped them feel more confident and gives them the self-esteem of having a beautiful smile. Considering the factors mentioned above, the market for teeth whitening is anticipated to grow healthily in the coming days.

Increasing awareness around oral hygiene, the accessibility of over-the-counter teeth whitening treatments, and the stigma associated with teeth discoloration further promote the market's growth rate.

Oral hygiene has become extremely important as poor oral hygiene can result in various dental problems. The adoption of teeth whitening is increasing considerably among people for various reasons. People get stained teeth due to poor oral hygiene, consuming drugs, consuming stain-causing foods and beverages, and a variety of other disorders. It has been noticed that a significant number of people have teeth whitening procedures to attend special occasions or job interviews. Also, with age, the color of the teeth changes. Teeth enamel starts to wear down, making teeth look discolored, which makes people go for these procedures.

Furthermore, the growing number of advancements in teeth whitening, rising medical tourism to treat dental issues, and increasing number of government actions to promote awareness of oral care further boost the market growth.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

High costs associated with dental check-ups and cosmetic treatments as part of teeth whitening procedures are a major factor hampering the market's growth rate. In addition, the impact of teeth whitening procedures does not last long, and patients must pay frequent dentist visits to avail the benefit of teeth whitening, which is regular maintenance and costs considerably. Furthermore, rules and regulations related to dental products and instruments are different in different regions, making it difficult for new entrants to penetrate the market.

Impact Of COVID-19 On the Global Teeth Whitening Market

The active ingredient most frequently found in whitening products is hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). It is present either as hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is an oxidizing agent. It breaks down to create unstable free radicals when it diffuses into the teeth. These dangerous free radicals connect to organic color molecules in the gaps between the inorganic salts in tooth enamel, forming tiny, less colored components. These smaller molecules produce a whitening effect by reflecting less light.

Tooth sensitivity and gum discomfort are two unfavorable side effects of some teeth whitening procedures. If you want to whiten your teeth effectively, you must select a procedure that targets the sort of stains you have. If you have either of these types, you may need to choose a technique that securely tackles intrinsic and extrinsic stains. Adoption of teeth whitening procedures depends on the affordability of the procedures. Since insurance does not pay for teeth whitening remedies, some people can opt for toothpaste and mouthwash, which have a lesser whitening impact but, at the same time, are less expensive. Also, people who have dental implants or veneers cannot opt for these treatments. Only natural teeth can be whitened. In recent years, the younger population has sought out veneers to get a flawlessly white smile, but this can be harmful in the long term. The best action may be to consult a dentist about your teeth whitening alternatives.

The COVID-19 pandemic has put greater emphasis on personal hygiene and social distancing. Due to this, at-home dental procedures were given preference over professional treatments. In addition, owing to the significant risk of acquiring and spreading COVID-19 among dental surgeons, nurses, and other healthcare workers, dental offices were closed worldwide during the lockdown. But as the restrictions were lifted and the situation returned to normal, people started visiting clinics to get the whitening procedures done. Considering these factors, the teeth whitening market is anticipated to showcase a healthy CAGR over the forecast period.
