RISING NUMBERS OF TMJ DISORDERS
In 2018, the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research found that between 5% and 12% of people have TMJ disorders, and it's even higher among young folks. TMJ disorders are the second most common muscle and bone issues causing pain and problems moving. These issues are most common between ages 20 and 40, and they affect women more than men. Women using estrogen or birth control pills are more likely to get help for these problems. So, because these disorders are increasing in these groups, more treatments are being used.
Also, many research studies focusing on how common TMJ disorders are expected to make the treatment market grow. For example, in 2016, a study in North Saudi Arabia found a lot of university students with TMJ disorders, especially females having clicking and pain. Another study in India in the same year looked at TMJ disorders in high school students. It found that habits like sucking fingers, biting nails, breathing through the mouth, and clenching the jaw were linked to TMJ disorders. These studies are pushing the growth of the TMJ treatment market.
BETTER WAYS TO TREAT TMJ DISORDERS
Technology has made a big difference in treating TMJ disorders, and that's helping the market grow too. New ways to treat TMJ disorders without surgery or with surgery are getting more popular. A study in 2016 talked about using tissue engineering to treat TMJ disorders. Though there isn't a product on the market yet, many studies are working on tools to fix TMJ tissues. In February 2020, AIIMS introduced a new way to replace the jaw joint using 3D printing technology, which is helping the TMJ disorder market grow.
More people want treatments that don't need surgery for TMJ disorders. An article in 2019 said that because we don't fully understand TMJ disorders, using less invasive surgery (like TMJ-MIS) might be a good choice when other treatments haven't worked. As more people choose these less invasive surgeries for TMJ disorders, the market is expected to grow even more in the future.
