Objective : This study was aimed at examining the current state of the expanding market of dental materials and devices in our own and other countries by analyzing the production of medical devices and statistic data on import and export reporting by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.
Method : We performed the research by dividing into two categories, medical materials and devices and dental materials and devices, according to the classification code of medical devices. Dental materials and devices were divided into dental devices and dental materials. The analysis results were classified into 4 parts; analysis of the current state of global market, analysis of the current state of domestic production, analysis of the current state of import market, and analysis of the current state of import market.
Results : The medical industry in Korea takes up 1.6% of global market share from .8 billion dollars in 2011 to 5.1 billion dollars in 2013. During the analysis period, Korea was one step up from the 12th in 2011 to 11th in 2013 among the top 20 countries and furthermore the steady increase of export and decrease of import led to the trade surplus in the market of dental materials and devices in 2013. Simultaneously, among dental materials and devices, specialized materials had a remarkable gain. While dental implant recorded the export of 112,475,000 dollars and thereby ranked the first in each field of dental materials for 6 years, occupying the 1st also in the import of dental materials and devices with the total import of 130,833,000 dollars for six years from 2008 to 2013.
Conclusion : The domestic industry in dental materials and devices has maintained high ratio and has grown steadily since it is medical industry and furthermore specific items are related and have an impact on the growth of each market.
