By 2027, the global market for orthodontic surgery is estimated to reach $11.8 billion. But even though a large portion of the market is directed towards standard oral hygiene procedures, the demand for cosmetic dentistry – that is, the superficial beautification of the mouth – is growing steadily each year. Canada is one of the world’s leading countries for reputable cosmetic dentistry and these are the trends that are coming to the fore.
Video Calls A Driving Factor
From a statistical perspective, Canadians appear quite happy with the state of their teeth. In fact, 84% of Canadians would describe the state of their oral health as good or excellent, with 75% claiming they visit their dentist regularly. However, the demand for cosmetic dentistry in Canada continues to rise, and remote working could be the reason why. Some news sources credit the surge of demand for cosmetic dental procedures to the Zoom Boom, as more and more people partake in daily video calls that require live interactions.
Remote workers are spending more time than ever looking at their reflections on screen, triggering a spike of interest in cosmetic surgeries that improve the symmetry and balance of facial features – primarily the mouth. Natural-looking teeth whitening and porcelain veneers remain two of Canada’s most popular cosmetic dental procedures, allowing people to feel confident about how they look.
Tooth chips, discoloration, minor gaps, and size issues can all be treated by the wide-reaching pool of dentists that Canada has to offer. Both dental procedures remain popular for their affordability, convenience, and high satisfaction rate.
Artificial Intelligence Meets Cosmetic Dentistry
One of the most innovative dental technology breakthroughs in Canada is the utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) to improve the accuracy of cosmetic dental procedures. While the AI is not directly involved in the surgical process of dentistry, it can be used to gather more specific data about a patient’s mouth and deliver an even more satisfactory result. When paired with computer programs and imaging technology, AI can not only improve the outcome, but also provide patients with insight into it before the procedure has even started.
With the support of AI technology, cosmetic dentists can show patients what they’d look like with a new jawline, straight teeth, or pearly whites in a more tangible way. Ultimately, the use of AI in cosmetic dentistry allows both patients and dentists to make more informed decisions about mouth, jaw, or teeth-related surgical procedures.
Big Smiles For Canada’s Dentistry Market
Canada stands as one of the world’s leaders when it comes to oral health. The availability of high-ranking dentists is a non-issue, the treatments are efficient, and even the wait lists for cosmetic surgeries are shorter. Canadians have access to some of the best cosmetic dentistry services around.
But that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for improvement. As the demand for superficial dentistry procedures grows, so does the demand for innovative new methods. Thanks to the latest trends in dental cosmetic technology, Canadians can benefit from faster, less invasive procedures with longer-lasting and better aesthetic results.
