The demand for orthodontic supplies is on a surge mainly due to increasing prevalence of oral diseases. Some of the most common oral diseases include dental cavities, periodontal diseases, oral cancer, malocclusions and other oral diseases and disorders. High prevalence of oral diseases depicts increased demand for orthodontic supplies. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), around 60% to 90% of the school children and nearly 100% of adults suffer from dental cavities. It has also been observed that, around 15% to 20% of adults aged between 35 to 44 years, suffer from severe periodontal (gum) disease.
The technologically advanced orthodontics products have transformed the orthodontic treatment procedures. Some of the recent advancements in orthodontic products include Invisalign, invisible range of invisible clear aligners, manufactured by Align Technology, Inc., which helps in moving the teeth without the use of braces, mini-screws, and mini-implants. Moreover, the other recent innovation has been the development of lingual braces, which are the hidden braces bonded behind the teeth rather than in front. Technologically, advanced orthodontic products offer various advantages over conventional products, which has led to their increased adoption by orthodontists and consumers for treating dental problem in children and adults, thereby driving the growth of the orthodontic supplies market.
Insights on Market Segments:

Removable braces are expected to register the fastest growth in the orthodontics supplies market during the forecast period. The growth of the removable braces is primarily attributable to increase in the adoption of these braces by adults over traditional braces. Based on end user, children & teenagers are the larger end user in the orthodontic supplies market.

Adoption of Cosmetic Orthodontics is a Key Trend in the Market
Cosmetic orthodontics is a procedure where the treatment is done to improve the appearance of a person's gums, teeth and bite. The primary focus of the treatment is to alter the color, shape, and alignment of the teeth.
