Market
Overview:
Metal implants and medical alloys market has registered
burgeoning growth in the recent decades due to the expanding geriatric
population and rising number of accidents and injuries that are necessitating the
use of implants. Bones in older people generally weaken giving rise to various
problems such as low bone density and osteoporosis that can lead to increased
bone fracture. They also tend to lose teeth which makes a strong case for
dental metal implants. Estimates show that Metal Implants and Medical Alloys Market which amassed a revenue of USD 10,310
million in 2018, is expected to register a CAGR of 9.1% over 2019-2025.
Various metals such as titanium, cobalt,
iron, chromium, and tantalum are used in manufacturing metal implants. Metals
can essentially replace bone structures that have either been damages in
accidents or have worn out with age. Metal implants are often worn out after a
span of 15 to 20 years which gives rise to the need of revision surgeries for
new implants. Previously older people were less active which helped their
implants to last longer. But in the recent decades, people even above the age
of 60 have been found to be much more active as they prefer to jog, play golf
or ride their bikes. he worldwide surge in the number of road
accidents & trauma cases coupled with mounting demand for minimally
invasive surgical procedures is expected to drive the market growth during the
assessment period. In addition, growing geriatric population along with rising
burden of lifestyle-associated diseases and increasing technological
advancements in the devices are likely to support the market growth. For
instance, as per the statistics published by World Health Organization (WHO),
the number of road traffic deaths continues to rise steadily, reached to 1.35
million in 2016, increased from 1.15 million in 2000.
