The gingival recession market is primarily driven by the growing prevalence of periodontal diseases across the globe. Gingival recession refers to the exposure of the root surfaces as a result of the displacement of the gingival margin apical to the cementoenamel junction. It is generally caused by periodontal diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis which involve chronic inflammation and damage of gum tissues surrounding the teeth. Gingival recession may be symptomatic or asymptomatic and often requires intervention through procedures like gingival grafting to reduce root sensitivity and prevent worsening of gum disease.
The gingival recession market is estimated to be valued at USD 3.36 Bn in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 4.94 Bn by 2031, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.66% from 2024 to 2031.
