Rising Spinal Cord Injury Volume to Drive Osseointegration Implants Market Growth

The osseointegration implants market is being positively influenced by the increasing volume of dental implant surgeries and trauma incidents, rising prevalence of spinal cord injuries (SCIs), growing funds for research, and improved reimbursement support for surgeries. It generated a revenue of $9.9 billion in 2017 and is expected to advance at a 4.0% CAGR during the forecast period (2018–2023). Osseointegration implants are used for the treatment of hearing loss, tooth loss, and amputees. Osteoblasts and supporting tissue migrate to the pore in which the implant is placed.


Another driving factor for the osseointegration implants market is the rising number of SCIs. They generate the highest requirement for such implants amongst all osseointegration implant-treated injuries. As per the World Health Organization, the global annual incidence of SCIs is 40 to 80 cases per one million population. In the U.S., approximately 337,000 people are living with SCIs currently, and each year, 12,500 new SCI cases are reported owing to an increase in the number of road accidents, as per the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center.

The largest contributor to the osseointegration implants market in 2017 in the region segment was North America. A United Nations publication, “An Aging World 2017”, mentioned that the aged population (60 years and above) in the region is expected to grow to 28.0% of total by 2050 from 22.0% in 2017. Hence, it is clear that the North American market is being driven by the increasing aged population, along with the rising volume of amputations and surging prevalence of spinal disorders.
