The India clear aligners market size is expected to reach USD 967.19 million by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., registering a CAGR of 34.07% over the forecast period. The high prevalence of malocclusion is the main driver for market growth; according to a study by the NCBI, the prevalence of malocclusions among Indian children aged 8 to 15 years is roughly 35.40%. The overall market expansion is being fuelled by factors including the rising number of market players, the development of dental technology, and the rising desire for personalized clear aligners. Advancements like 3D impression systems, additive fabrication, Nickel and Copper-Titanium Wires, digital scanning technology, CAD/CAM appliances, and temporary anchorage devices are further driving the market growth. Clear aligners are among the most recent developments that are making orthodontic treatments more effective, efficient, and predictable in the face of rising dental disorders.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the clear aligners market in India. The outbreak of the pandemic and the subsequent measures taken to control its spread have created several challenges for the industry in the country. One of the primary impacts of the pandemic on the market in India was the disruption of dental services. During the initial stages of the pandemic, dental clinics faced temporary closures or operated with limited capacity due to lockdowns and social distancing measures. This resulted in a significant decline in routine dental visits, including orthodontic consultations for clear aligners. As clear aligners treatments are typically elective procedures and can be costly, individuals prioritized their spending on essential needs, healthcare, and pandemic-related expenses. This led to a further decline in product demand as patients deprioritized non-essential dental treatments.
