The U.S. market for dental implants and final abutments was valued at nearly $979 million in 2012, driven by the growing number of general dentists offering implant treatments, according to a market research report from Reportbuyer.com.
The market includes dental implants, final abutments, dental implant instrument kits, and computer-guided surgery products, according to the research firm.
The market is expected to maintain moderate growth rates as the number of dental implant procedures continues to rise, facilitated by the increasing number of dental professionals offering the procedures. Implant manufacturers are increasingly bolstering sales of their restorative offerings through supportive technology such as bone graft substitutes and CAD/CAM technology.
