Technology plays an essential role in the improvement of working conditions in dental offices and dental laboratories. Developments in digital dentistry have resulted in a better patient experience; these developments also help enhance the productivity and profitability of dental practices, and create a brief understanding of the use of CAD/CAM technology in dentistry. This refers to digitally designing dental appliances, crowns, CAD, and manufacturing those products with CAM. Over the past few decades, digital dentistry technologies have enabled physicians to improve patient care by significantly reducing the time required for the restorative phase of treatment. Advancements in intraoral scanning, and computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM), coupled with the introduction of new CAD/CAM dental ceramic materials, have simplified patient care and brought same-day dentistry into reality. The accuracy and reliability of modern manufacturing processes and 3D scanning have empowered the manufacturing of dental objects. It can be used to design and construct veneers, implant abutments, crowns, and inlays, on lays, fixed partial dentures, and full mouth reconstructions.
The economy of this region is expected to witness a boom in the dental CAD/CAM industry in the coming years. Intraoral scanners are widely used for capturing direct optical impressions in dentistry. Most dentists use state-of-the-art intraoral scanners to take high-speed impressions of teeth. Many dental CAD/CAM systems manufacturers are moving to an open architecture as the software can exhibit compatibility with any milling unit. Technological advancements in intraoral scanners and CAD ensure safety, along with improving patient outcomes. In February 2018, Nobel Biocare launched its newly expanded CAD/CAM product range, in partnership with KaVo. The newly launched KaVo LS 3 desktop scanner is designed to improve flexibility and connectivity among dental technicians and patients. Therefore, increasing dental problems and technological advancements are bolstering the growth of the Europe dental CAD/CAM market.
With new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the Europe dental CAD/CAM market growth at a notable CAGR during the forecast period.
