Dental Care Services Market Executive Summary

The Philippines' dental care services market size is at around $78.94 Mn in 2022 and is projected to reach $129.66 Mn in 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.4% during the forecast period 2022-30. Healthcare expenditure in the Philippines is relatively low compared to other countries. According to data from the World Bank, the total health expenditure as a percentage of gross domestic product (GDP) in the Philippines was around 4% in 2019. This is significantly lower than the global average of around 10%. A large portion of healthcare expenditure in the Philippines is financed through out-of-pocket payments, which can be a significant burden for many Filipinos. The government has been working to increase funding for the healthcare system through initiatives such as the Universal Health Care Law, but more needs to be done to improve healthcare financing and reduce the burden of out-of-pocket payments on individuals and families.

The government of the Philippines runs a network of public dentistry clinics that offer basic dental services such as tooth extractions, fillings, and cleanings at a low or no cost. However, the availability and quality of services at these clinics can vary depending on the region and financing. Private dental clinics in the Philippines offer a broader range of services at a higher cost, including more complex operations such as root canals, crowns, and implants. Some Filipinos have dental insurance through their work or the government-run national health insurance program, PhilHealth. These insurance plans can assist in covering the price of dental care. Many citizens pay for dental care out of their own pockets, which can be costly.

Braces and clear aligners are the most popular services in the Philippines Dental Services Market right now. Because the Philippines is the world's selfie capital, these services are growing appeal among the younger population. Cosmetic dentistry and orthodontics are slowly gaining traction in the country. The dental care market in the Philippines has now valued at $78.94 Mn and is predicted to expand more slowly than in other Asian countries, at a CAGR of 6.4% by 2030, reaching $129.66 Mn. The report by Insights10 delves deep into the factors that drive the market growth and with an awareness of market limiting factors that can richly benefit competitive strategies for dental care providers in the Philippines.

Market Dynamics

Market Growth Drivers

General consultation and teeth cleaning are the most opted-for services but still, General Dentistry has an overall share of around 15 to 20% of the market revenue as these services are the least expensive as they are priced around $18- $27. In the Philippines, braces are considered to be fashionable and thus are quite frequently opted for. They are also expensive, especially the clear aligners and hence this service is a major revenue contributor as the need for aesthetics with a higher level of concealment by the conscious youth drives this demand. In short, major revenue contributors are General Dentistry, Orthodontics, Endodontics, and Prosthodontics. Invisalign, Orthero, and K-line used to be the major players in the Philippines dental market for the production of braces, especially clear aligners. Their market share was around 40% for Invisalign, 25% for K-line, and around 10% for Orthero in the domain of clear aligners. A major growth curve in the Philippines is dental tourism, where a patient from other countries come for their dental treatment as it is more affordable and has highly skilled professionals.

Market Restraints

 Starting a dental corporation needs significant capital, and small enterprises may have limited access to funding. Dental organizations necessitate costly equipment and supplies, which can be a considerable barrier to entry for new enterprises. Dental firms may be unable to develop profitable niche niches or properly target customers. Compliance with healthcare laws, including those imposed by the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC), can be time-consuming and costly. People in the Philippines are less inclined to seek dental care due to limited dental coverage, making it difficult for dental firms to make money. The general public may be unaware of the importance of oral health, resulting in low demand for dental treatments. There are only a few skilled specialists who can deliver high-quality services.

Healthcare Policies and Regulatory Landscape

The regulatory body for dental services in the Philippines is the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) under the Board of Dentistry. The PRC is responsible for the registration, licensure, and regulation of dental professionals in the country. The Board of Dentistry, which is under the PRC, sets standards and guidelines for dental education and practice and also conducts exams for dental practitioners. The Professional Regulatory Board of Dentistry has the authority to enact a Code of Ethics and a Code of Practice for the practice of dentistry, dental hygiene, and dental technology. The Philippine Dental Association, Inc. presented the Board with a draught copy of "Proposed Amendments to the Philippine Code of Dental Ethics" for review. The Board pondered on the provisions of the abovementioned draught and improved them before accepting and incorporating them into its rules and regulations.

Reimbursement Scenario

In the Philippines, dental treatments are usually paid for out-of-pocket by patients. There are some health insurance plans that cover dental treatments, but they are not as common as those that cover medical treatments. Some companies and organizations may also provide dental insurance for their employees as part of their benefits package. However, the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) does offer limited coverage for dental treatments for certain conditions such as Oral Cancer, and for certain procedures such as extraction and fillings. However, coverage is limited and not all procedures are covered.
