Market Dynamics

Market Growth Drivers Analysis

Due to the increasing aging population in Australia, there has been an increase in the number of dental implants and oral surgeries being performed. In addition, there is a decrease in manual dexterity and an increase in comorbidity and medications affecting the oral cavity. Hence, the dental care in aged care facilities is found to be poor and access to dental professionals is difficult. There are several other risk factors, such as smoking, poor oral hygiene, diabetes, medication, and hereditary conditions, which are also connected to the increase in dental diseases. There are few population-based surveys in the Australia that demonstrate a high dental caries experience among elderly population. Thus, it is being found that the number of elder people is growing fast in all industrialized countries including Australia, and thus, contributing to the increase in dental device market. The other factors, such as increasing incidence of dental diseases and innovation in dental products is expected to drive the market in the forecast period.

Market Restraints

Increasing Cost of Surgeries, Expanding Demand for Refurbished Dental Devices are a major restraining factor. The increased cost of services due to high cost of dental equipment is a significant factor that may hamper the market growth during the forecast period. Hospitals may also be under more pressure to raise prices to compensate for lower volume. There are major opposing influences, though.

Covid-19 Market Impact Analysis

Industry operators are expected to face several challenges related to COVID-19. The implementation of level three guidelines and restrictions in March 2020 limited the number of dental services able to be offered.

While most dental practices have since reopened following the move to level one restrictions in May 2020, the implementation of level two restrictions in regional Victoria and level three restrictions in metropolitan Melbourne in July and August 2020 are expected to dampen demand in 2020-21 as are subsequent regional lockdown restrictions.

Healthcare Policies and Regulatory Landscape

Policy changes and Reimbursement scenario

Australia has a government-funded healthcare scheme, Medicare. However, in contrast with other health services, the Dental Services industry is predominantly privately funded. Most patients pay for dental care, check-ups and procedures out of their own pocket, and some use private health insurance to subsidize the cost. Patients with private health insurance are more likely to regularly go to the dentist and undergo expensive procedures. Approximately 50% of Australians have some level of private health insurance cover for dental expenses.

In 2019, the Australian Government paid benefits averaging $60 per service provided under the Child Dental Benefits Schedule. Around one-fifth of dentate adults aged 15 years and over avoided or delayed dental care due to cost in 201920. Adults aged 15 years and over had an average of 11.2 decayed, missing and filled teeth in 201718. In 201718, about 72,000 hospitalisations for dental conditions may have been prevented with earlier treatment.

The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) regulates medical devices. Australias regulatory framework is based on IMDRF guidelines which means that EU and Australian requirements are similar. Most medical equipment in Australia are supplied under CE certification, however, under the Medical Device Single Audit Program (MDSAP), the TGA recognizes US FDA regulatory clearance information if presented with a MDSAP certificate.
