The Medical Ceramics Market deals with the development of medical technology. Ceramics are a kind of products which are manufactured by firing non-metallic materials at high temperatures. The basic materials that are used in producing medical ceramics or bioceramics are bio-inert ceramics, bio-active ceramics, bio-resorabable ceramics and piezoceramics.
Different ceramic implants are present in the market, for example dental implants, orthopedic implants, implantable electronic devices and some others. The biocompatibility of these medical ceramics makes them highly usable in prosthetics, surgical implants, and a number of invasive medical devices and tools.
Scope & Regional Forecast of the Medical Ceramics Market
Increasing number of incidents of cardiovascular, orthopedic and dental diseases is the major key growth factor of the Medical Ceramics Market. Growing aging population in most of the regions is also another major factor for the growth of the market demand. Hence, this market is expected to experience a great demand for ceramics specially in medical field during the forecast period. Among all the applications, dental implant is registering the highest growth rate across the world.
Medical Ceramics Market Expects Dental Implant Segment To Remain As Highest Contributor
In addition, growing advanced ceramic technology coupled with increasing number of medical procedures which include dental implants, cardiovascular implants, orthopedic implants and medical imaging equipment is the major growth driver of the market. Although medical ceramics are nontoxic, very minor traces of radio elements can be found in even fully refined ceramics, which can have a negative impact on organs and tissues. This is the major factor that hinders the Medical Ceramics Market growth.
Asia-Pacific is leading high in the Medical Ceramics Market, due to growing applications like dental implants, orthopedic implants, surgical & diagnostic instruments, implantable electronic devices, and others. Also, Asia-Pacific is projected to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period. North America is also expected to register significant growth during the forecast period followed by Europe.
