Zima Dental introduced an ultrasonic oral appliance cleaner named ‘Dental Pod Pro,’ an advanced and user-friendly equipment for oral care. This product helps eliminate harmful bacteria and plaque and is designed to improve safety features. A dental pod pro has the best cleaning power, and the company also launched the ‘Max Cleaning Mode’ as an additional cleaning mode with a dual-action cleaning system. This newly featured mode effectively breaks down tough stains, bacterial biofilms, and plaques that form at a particular period. The Dental Pod Pro also presents the tank and base as separate features that enable the users to fill and clean the tank without the need to unplug from the power source. A tank with increased capacity is composed of antibacterial stainless steel with elements such as manganese, chromium, and nickel, which reduce the bacterial growth on the surface.
Dental Insurance Market Size
According to Precedence Research’s Report, the global dental insurance market size was US$ 193.55 billion in 2023 and is predicted to grow around US$ 845.43 billion by 2033, with a remarkable growth to US$ 227.22 billion in 2024, expanding at a CAGR of 17.8% from 2023 to 2032.
According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, the ‘Healthy People 2030’ vision aims to improve health by increasing dental, medical, and prescription drug insurance coverage. People with health insurance can get easy access to the available health services and medications irrespective of racial or ethnic minorities. People with low incomes and poor education can find limitations in getting health insurance plans. Research done by the National Association of Dental Plans (NADP) reported that about 300 million, almost 88% of the American population, enrolled in dental coverage plans in 2022. In 2023, at the year-end of 2022, about 293 million Americans had dental coverage benefits through public benefits, individual plans, employer-sponsored or other group plans.
According to the National Association of Dental Plans (NADP), there was a 22.4% increase in the enrolment in publicly funded benefits in 2022 than in the year 2021. As per the analysis of Medicare Landscape Files from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), over 21.8 million enrolments were estimated in the Medicare Advantage in 2022, which was about a 1.6% increase. Enrolments include dental savings/discount dental plans and publicly funded plans, which include Medicaid, CHIP, and Medicare Advantage Plans at the National and State levels. MetLife Services and Solutions, LLC, United Healthcare Services Inc., HDFC ERGO Health Insurance Ltd, Ameritas, Allianz, AXA, and Cigna are the leading companies contributing to the success of the dental insurance market.
