MARKET DRIVERS

The growing incidence of facial trauma injuries is one of the key factors boosting the growth of the craniomaxillofacial implants market.

Road accidents, sports injuries, and violence are some of the major causes that can lead to facial trauma injuries. These injuries are believed to be resulting severe damage in the craniomaxillofacial region including the skull, face, and jaws, and can do potential damage in the form of disfigurement, functional impairment, and even death in severe cases. Craniomaxillofacial implants are an effective and preferred way to repair and reconstruct these injuries. Craniomaxillofacial implants such as plates, screws, and meshes are used during facial reconstruction surgeries to stabilize fractures, restore facial symmetry, and improve function. Facial trauma injuries are becoming very common among people and the population suffering from these injuries is growing substantially with each year passing, which is boosting the demand for craniomaxillofacial implants and accelerating the market’s growth rate. As per the statistics published by the World Health Organization (WHO), an estimated 1.35 million people per year dies from road accidents and many more people are injured or disabled. On the other hand, sports-related injuries and violence result in facial trauma injuries. As per the data published by the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS), an estimated 50% of facial injuries are due to sports and 30% are from violence.

The growing prevalence of facial deformities is further fuelling the growth rate of the craniomaxillofacial implants market.

Trauma, congenital defects, tumors, infections, and aging are some of the issues that can result in facial deformities. Due to facial deformities, people suffer in a variety of ways ranging from appearance issues to speech, breathing, and eating. The growing number of accidents happening worldwide, and the increasing incidence of injuries due to various reasons that affect the face and skull are majorly contributing to the rising prevalence of facial deformities. As per the data published by the Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1 in every 550 newborns is suffering from craniofacial anomalies in the United States. According to the study conducted by the Journal of Cranio-Maxillofacial Surgery, the incidence of maxillofacial fractures rose by 24% between 2001 to 2008 in the United States. Craniomaxillofacial implants can potentially help reconstruct and repair the defects in the skull, face, and jaws. The number of people suffering from facial deformities has grown substantially over the last few years, and the same trend is predicted to continue in the coming years, which is expected to boost the demand for craniomaxillofacial implants and fuel the market’s growth rate.

The growing aging population worldwide is boosting the growth of the craniomaxillofacial implants market.

With growing age, people are more susceptible to falls and accidents that can create fractures in the skull, face, and jaw. In addition, the incidence of osteoporosis is high among aged people and this can weaken the bones of the skull and jaw and is more likely to cause fractures. In such cases, craniomaxillofacial implants are used to repair the damaged area. Furthermore, aged people are likely to get diagnosed with chronic diseases such as CVDs and diabetes. These patients sometimes have to undergo surgeries on the head and neck to remove tumors. In such situations, craniomaxillofacial implants are used to reconstruct the affected area. The number of craniomaxillofacial procedures is growing significantly with each year passing, which is expected to boost the demand for craniomaxillofacial implants and drive market growth. For instance, an estimated 55,385 craniomaxillofacial procedures were performed in the United States in 2023, as per the data published by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and this trend is expected to continue in the coming years and contribute to market growth.

Technological developments are co

ntributing to the growth of the craniomaxillofacial implants market growth.

In recent years, researchers and healthcare providers have used 3D printing technology to manufacture customized craniomaxillofacial implants that fit the patient's specific anatomy, reducing the risk of complications and improving outcomes. Increasing demand for customized implants is favoring the market growth. The adoption of customized craniomaxillofacial implants market has increased significantly in recent years due to their benefits such as better fit and functionality, improved patient outcomes, and reduced surgery time. In addition, factors such as increasing disposable income in developing countries and rising awareness about facial aesthetics and reconstructive surgeries, and the presence of favorable reimbursement policies in developed countries are showcasing a favorable impact on the growth of the craniomaxillofacial implants market. The growing adoption of dental tourism, rising adoption of minimally invasive surgeries, increasing demand for bioresorbable implants, growing emphasis on R&D activities by manufacturers, a growing number of orthopedic and trauma surgeries, and rising demand for facial implants for cosmetic purposes are further fuelling the growth of the craniomaxillofacial implants market.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

The high cost of craniomaxillofacial implants is one of the key factors hampering the market growth.

Due to these high costs, the adoption of these implants is limited in developing and underdeveloped countries. Unfavorable reimbursement policies for craniomaxillofacial implants in some countries are diluting the overall growth rate of the market. The presence of alternative treatments such as orthodontics, facial fillers, or non-surgical treatments is another significant obstacle to the craniomaxillofacial implants market growth. The scarcity of skilled professionals who can perform craniomaxillofacial surgeries is impacting the market growth negatively. The stringent regulatory environment for craniomaxillofacial implants is making it complex for new products to enter the market and impeding market growth. The safety concerns associated with the usage of craniomaxillofacial implants, such as the risk of infection, rejection, or implant failure, further inhibit the market’s growth rate.
