세계의 치과용 봉합사 시장 예측(-2032년) : 제품별, 소재별, 기술별, 최종 사용자별, 지역별 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Dental Sutures Market is accounted for $238.7 million in 2025 and is expected to reach $414.4 million by 2032 growing at a CAGR of 8.2% during the forecast period. Dental sutures are sterile surgical threads utilized by dentists or oral surgeons to repair wounds or surgical incisions in the oral cavity following treatments such as tooth extractions, gum surgery, or implants. They facilitate healing by securing tissue and reducing hemorrhage. Dental sutures may be classified as absorbable, which dissolve over time, or non-absorbable, necessitating removal. They are available in diverse materials and dimensions, according to the particular requirements of oral surgery.

According to the World Health Organization's Global Oral Health Status Report (2022), approximately 3.5 billion people worldwide suffer from oral diseases.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing number of dental surgeries

The increasing number of dental procedures worldwide is a major driver of the dental sutures market. This expansion is driven by the rising prevalence of dental problems such as periodontal disease and dental caries, an increase in cosmetic dentistry operations, and an aging population that requires more dental care. Furthermore, the growth of dental tourism and increased awareness of oral health have resulted in a higher volume of dental treatments, boosting the demand for dental sutures to enable proper wound closure and healing following surgery.

Restraint:

High cost of advanced sutures

The high cost of improved dental sutures, particularly those made from synthetic or novel materials, significantly limits market expansion. While these sutures provide greater biocompatibility and predictability of absorption, they are costly due to complex manufacturing techniques and raw material costs. In areas with limited healthcare budgets or reimbursement rules, particularly in developing nations, higher costs limit accessibility and uptake, making traditional, less expensive solutions more appealing and impeding total market expansion.

Opportunity:

Advancements in suture materials

The creation of synthetic, absorbable, and biocompatible sutures has led to better surgical outcomes by reducing how much the tissue reacts, helping it heal faster, and making it less necessary to remove the sutures. Furthermore, improvements like antimicrobial coatings and knotless designs lower infection risk while improving patient comfort. These technological improvements not only suit the changing needs of dental professionals, but they also create new opportunities for market growth, particularly as demand for minimally invasive and effective dental procedures increases.

Threat:

Risk of surgical site infections (SSIs)

The risk of surgical site infections (SSIs) remains a significant threat to the dental suture business. Sutures can become a place where bacteria grow and form a layer, increasing the chance of infections after surgery and other problems. Such concerns may discourage doctors from utilizing specific suture types or encourage the use of alternate wound closure procedures, thereby limiting market growth.

Covid-19 Impact:

The Covid-19 epidemic had a significant detrimental influence on the dental sutures industry, owing to widespread lockdowns, social distancing measures, and the cancellation of elective dental treatments. As a result, patient visits to dental clinics decreased significantly, as did the number of dental procedures conducted. As a result, demand for dental sutures declined, hurting both supply chains and market revenues. However, once limitations were lifted and dental practices restarted, the market eventually recovered, returning to its pre-pandemic growth rates.

The non-absorbable sutures segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The non-absorbable sutures segment is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period. Non-absorbable sutures are preferred in dental surgeries that require long-term tissue support because of their endurance, high tensile strength, and resistance to degradation. These sutures, which are generally comprised of silk, nylon, or polypropylene, are ideal for difficult oral operations and procedures that require extended wound support. Their continuous demand stems from their capacity to preserve wound closure while limiting the possibility of dehiscence, making them vital in dental treatment.

The synthetic material segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Over the forecast period, the synthetic material segment is predicted to witness the highest growth rate. Synthetic sutures, made from materials like polyglycolic acid, polyglactin, and polydioxanone, are gaining popularity because they work well with the body, dissolve at a steady rate, and cause less irritation to tissues. These qualities promote speedier healing and prevent post-operative problems. Furthermore, current technological improvements in synthetic suture materials, such as antimicrobial coatings and increased flexibility, are improving their effectiveness and propelling their widespread use in various dental procedures.

Region with largest share:

During the forecast period, the North America region is expected to hold the largest market share. This supremacy is due to improved healthcare infrastructure, great awareness of dental care, and a significant number of dental procedures performed each year. The United States, in particular, holds a leading position due to the prevalence of dental problems, extensive dental insurance coverage, and the presence of key market participants. Furthermore, the region benefits from widespread adoption of modern dental technologies and advantageous reimbursement regulations, which strengthens its global market leadership.

Region with highest CAGR:

Over the forecast period, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR. This rapid growth is being driven by rising disposable incomes, more access to dental services, and increased knowledge of oral hygiene in emerging nations such as China, India, and South Korea. Government actions to improve healthcare infrastructure and promote oral health, together with a growing middle-class population wanting superior dental treatment, are driving market growth. The region's rapid economic expansion and healthcare modernization make it an important growth engine for the sector.
