What Are The Leading Drivers Of Growth In The Dental Tourism Market?
The rising prevalence of oral diseases is expected to boost the growth of the dental tourism market. Oral diseases, such as dental caries, gum disease, and oral cancer, are affecting more people globally due to factors like poor oral hygiene and inadequate dental care. Dental tourism enables individuals to access affordable and high-quality dental treatments, especially those from low- and middle-income countries.
