The Global Dental Glass Ionomer Cements (GIC) Market report provides a holistic evaluation of the market. The report offers a comprehensive analysis of key segments, trends, drivers, restraints, competitive landscape, and factors that are playing a substantial role in the market.

Global Dental Glass Ionomer Cements (GIC) Market Definition

A glass ionomer cement is a dental restorative material used in dentistry as a filling material and luting cement, including for orthodontic bracket attachment. Glass-ionomer cements are based on the reaction of silicate glass-powder (calciumaluminofluorosilicate glass) and polyacrylic acid, an ionomer. Dentists must make sure to follow the manufacturer's directions for each type of cement, in terms of mixing, using the correct ratios and subjecting it to the correct temperatures. There are five types of dental cement: zinc-oxide eugenol, zinc phosphate, polycarboxylate, glass ionomer and composite resin. GIC has thin film thickness, high moisture tolerance, and the ability to release fluoride, which may lead to remineralization of demineralized tooth. Glass ionomer cement is primarily used in the prevention of dental caries. This dental material has good adhesive bond properties to tooth structure, allowing it to form a tight seal between the internal structures of the tooth and the surrounding environment. The application of glass ionomer sealants to occlusal surfaces of the posterior teeth, reduce dental caries in comparison to not using sealants at all. Glass ionomer cements were initially intended to be used for the aesthetic restoration of anterior teeth and were recommended for restoring Class III and Class V cavity preparations.

Global Dental Glass Ionomer Cements (GIC) Market Overview

Growing prevalence of dental disorders and technological & material advancements are among the factors expected to drive the market over the forecast period. Rising prevalence of caries is majorly responsible for market growth. GIC has thin film thickness, high moisture tolerance, and the ability to release fluoride, which may lead to remineralization of demineralized tooth. Such unique characteristics of this cement are anticipated to boost market demand.

In addition, rapid advancements in Glass Ionomer Cement (GIC) are expected to drive growth over the forecast period. Some novel developments are fiber or metal reinforced cement, inorganic polymeric oxide, resin-modified ionomer, utilization of nanoparticles & hydroxyapatite, and Sol-Gel method. These advancements are driven by various drawbacks of traditionally used dental materials, such as composite resins (time-consuming and have least technique-sensitive adhesive features) and amalgam (poor aesthetics and contains mercury that is harmful to the human body). Owing to these disadvantages, GICs are gaining popularity. They are easy to use, safer, and have excellent chemical & physical properties.

Furthermore, Increase in oral health awareness initiatives being undertaken across the globe is further estimated to boost demand. In addition, experts and speakers are spreading awareness about the benefits of oral hygiene on their websites & blogs and are promoting & encouraging maintenance of oral health, which aids growth. Introduction of new formulations is another driver of the market. Glass Ionomer Cement (GIC) is preferred by dental surgeons across the globe, especially in children. Owing to increase in dental caries, researchers and manufacturers are taking efforts to introduce different types of dental cement for meeting varied patient requirements.

However there are some disadvantages of glass ionomer cement that may hamper the market growth. The main disadvantage of glass ionomer sealants or cements has been inadequate retention or simply lack of strength, toughness, and limited wear resistance. For instance, due to its poor retention rate, periodic recalls are necessary, even after 6 months, to eventually replace the lost sealant. Different methods have been used to address the physical shortcomings of the glass ionomer cements such as thermo-light curing(polymerization), or addition of the zirconia, hydroxyapatite, N-vinyl pyrrolidone, N-vinyl caprolactam, and fluoroapatite to reinforce the glass ionomer cements.
