UAE Dental Tourism Market is expected to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period 2024-2028. Over the course of the forecast period, the market is anticipated to be driven primarily by the rising demand for affordable treatment for dental diseases. This market is expanding as a result of a number of factors, including rising dental disease prevalence, increased oral health awareness, and innovation in dental goods in the United Arab Emirates.
The UAE dental tourism market has been significantly impacted by innovation in dental products. The main focus in dentistry during the past ten years has been on dental innovations that combine engineering, art, science, and technology to promote oral health. Dental care and patient experiences have been transformed by the technical advancement known as computer-aided design/computer-aided milling (CAD/CAM). This factor is fueling the demand of dental tourism in UAE.
Multiple factors are expected to continue driving the dental tourism market in the UAE in the forecast years. International patients looking for reliable and cost-effective treatments will continue to be drawn to the nation due to its developing image as a centre for high-quality dental care. The UAE's appeal as a destination for dental tourism is aided by its advanced healthcare infrastructure, innovative dental facilities, and skilled dental professionals. Additionally, the growth of internet platforms that link patients with dental clinics and medical tourism facilitators will make the procedure even simpler for people seeking dental treatments in UAE.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a substantial influence on the UAE's dental tourism market. Travel restrictions, lockdown procedures, and concerns about the state of the world's health have led to a fall in both international travel and dental tourism. Due to security concerns and uncertainties surrounding the pandemic, many patients have been hesitant to travel abroad for dental care. Additionally, the expense and logistical difficulties for patients have increased due to the strict health and safety rules that have been implemented in dental clinics, including enhanced sterilization standards and PPE requirements. However, it is expected that the dental tourism market in the UAE would gradually recover as long as worldwide immunization efforts continue and travel restrictions loosen, driven by pent-up demand for dental procedures and the nation's reputation for providing high-quality healthcare services.
Rise in Government Initiatives to Drive the Market Growth
For instance, according to the Ministry of Health and Prevention's (MoHAP) 2019 Annual Health Statistic Book, 1,089,054 people visited dental clinics in Dubai in 2019 overall; of which around 53.3% of them were female and 46.7% were male, with 35.6% of them being Emirati.
A Surge in Demand for Cosmetic Dentistry is Fueling Market Expansion in UAE
Cosmetic dentistry enhances the idea of oral health by producing a comprehensive sense of well-being that includes both feeling and looking excellent. The development of cosmetic dentistry has opened the path for better and more long-lasting face modifications that go far beyond simply fixing crooked teeth. Aesthetic dentistry procedures include removing tooth stains, professional teeth whitening, reshaping teeth, filling fissures and gaps, placing crowns, veneers, bridges, dentures, and dental implants, and placing dental fillings to restore oral structures. These factors are fueling the demand for cosmetic dentistry in UAE, ultimately driving the growth of the dental tourism market. Moreover, numerous individuals prefer quick and painless modifications to their facial appearance. Patients desire affordable procedures that deliver results right away. Along with aesthetic procedures like porcelain veneers, dental bonding, straightening, reshaping, whole mouth reconstruction, gum lifts, and contouring, dental procedures like teeth whitening, resin veneers, and single-tooth implants are growing in popularity.
