As per WHO, Asia Pacific will witness fastest growth of geriatric pool in the coming years. Elderly population is prone to suffer from several oral health problems such as periodontitis, caries, edentulism and tooth decay leading to rise in dental procedures in the region. This will further fuel demand for DPMS as it enables efficient and effective dental treatment. Thus, rising elderly population across Asia Pacific should stimulate DPMS market growth in forthcoming years.
