According to detailed industry analysis by Persistence Market Research, the oral spray segment held a market value of US$ 301.8 Mn in 2021, accounting for nearly 31% share of the global market for xerostomia treatment by product.
Dry mouth treatment accounted for a revenue share of 2% in the global oral care market, which was valued at US$ 47.2 Bn in 2021.
The global dry mouth treatment market expanded at a CAGR of 4.9% over the last five years (2017-2021).
Growing adoption of radiotherapy and chemotherapy in cancer treatment together with increasing use of prescribed medications are some of the major factors anticipated to drive xerostomia treatment market growth. Chemotherapy and radiation harm the salivary glands and lead to dry mouth. Chemotherapy is one of the most common practices for the treatment of cancer provided by medical practitioners and oncologists.
As per CDC (Centres for Disease Control & Prevention), every year, approximately 650,000 cancer patients undergo chemotherapy in an outpatient oncology facility.
Other factors boosting market growth are rising geriatric population base, cost-effectiveness, ease of availability of medicines, growing usage of prescription medicines, and rising prevalence of diseases such as diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, Sjogren’s syndrome, and HIV, among others.
Major dry mouth treatment product manufacturers are keen to expand their market presence through key products as well as solutions for end users. For instance, many leading manufacturers nowadays also provide customized solutions based on various end-user requirements.
Market players are also striving to provide a total solution concept to customers, especially to end users, which, in turn, is supporting the growth of the xerostomia treatment industry.
The global xerostomia treatment market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 6.1% over the forecast period and record sales worth US$ 1.81 Bn by the end of 2032.
“Increasing Usage of Medications Surging Dry Mouth Incidence”
The coming years are set to offer lucrative opportunities for manufacturers of xerostomia treatment devices around the world.
Growing incidence of Sjogren’s syndrome and increasing consumption of medications are major factors expected to create lucrative opportunities for market players. As per the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, over 400 medicines can lead to xerostomia.
“Rising Awareness Regarding Xerostomia Treatment Drugs”
Dentists and physicians are concentrating on recognizing patients who are susceptible to developing irreversible and serious oral issues so that they can provide information regarding the management and relief from symptoms, thus enhancing patients' quality of life. Hence, rising awareness amongst healthcare practitioners regarding diagnosis has generated significant opportunities in the market.
“Growing Drug Pipeline for Dry Mouth Treatment”
Rising interest of the pharmaceutical industry in the development of products in various forms such as gels, toothpaste, powders, liquids, and sprays will further expand the product pipeline. A strong product pipeline with increasing research & development activities will create lucrative opportunities for oral health product manufacturers.
“Low Public Awareness and Limited Xerostomia Treatment Options”
Lack of awareness about xerostomia disease and availability of limited treatment options are key factors restraining demand growth for dry mouth treatment.
People are unaware of the oral complications of a few diseases such as HIV, cancer, and diabetes. They are also less aware of the severe consequences caused by xerostomia. One of the reasons is that patients never care to look for other treatments for dry mouth due to the availability of natural and home remedies. For example, individuals in India generally give preference to natural remedies.
As per a study conducted by the Department of Oral Medicine of Indonesia, approximately 20% of people were aware of the disease condition and 44% were moderately aware. Thus, lack of awareness regarding xerostomia disease and available treatment options is hampering market expansion.
Availability of alternative treatment options such as acupuncture or use of essential oils such as lavender oil, eucalyptus oil, etc., for dry mouth treatment, is further expected to limit market growth.
How is the U.S. Xerostomia Treatment Market Faring?
The U.S. is estimated to account for around 84.4% of the North America xerostomia treatment market in 2022, owing to better healthcare infrastructure and facilities, easy availability of treatment options, favorable reimbursement policies, and increasing awareness initiatives in the region.
Additionally, growing prevalence of xerostomia and other dry mouth-related diseases such as Sjogren’s syndrome, diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, and HIV, in the U.S., is boosting market growth.
What Makes Germany an Important Market for Xerostomia Treatment in Europe?
Germany is estimated to account for 23.1% of the Europe xerostomia treatment market in 2022.
With a constantly growing aging population, oral problems such as dry mouth are becoming more common. Moreover, medical professionals, healthcare providers, and dentists are constantly attempting to educate customers regarding the effects of xerostomia and other oral issues.
In addition, growing research activities, increasing product pipeline, and presence of major players are creating many opportunities for xerostomia treatment product manufacturers in Germany.
What Outlook Does India Provide for Dry Mouth Treatment Product Suppliers?
Demand for xerostomia treatment in India is expected to rise at around 6.5% CAGR over the forecast period, owing to growth in government initiatives for increasing awareness and rising prevalence of chronic diseases that lead to dry mouth conditions.
In emerging nations such as India, there is adoption of both, industrial and health policies for boosting domestic manufacturing of cancer drugs, which is resulting in lower therapy expenses. Lower therapy costs together with growing awareness regarding cancer are resulting in higher adoption of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, thus leading to the growth of the market in India.
Why are Oral Sprays Popular for Xerostomia Treatment?
By product, oral sprays for xerostomia treatment are anticipated to hold the highest market share of 32% in 2022, expanding at the rate of nearly 6.9% CAGR during the forecast period, owing to their efficiency, low cost, and increased rate of adoption amongst customers.
Oral spray solutions are widely used to manage dry mouth conditions. Healthcare providers are proactively recommending products to minimize the side effects of medications and thereby increase the quality of life.
Additionally, oral spray products are easily accessible to people as pharmacists or retailers keep these medicines in high amounts as they do not require a doctor’s prescription.
Why Do Adults Account for Highest Market Share?
By age group, the adult segment will lead the market and is projected to account for 90.4% market revenue share in 2022.
Dry mouth, or xerostomia, is common amongst adults, especially geriatric people, due to reduced salivary gland function. The primary causes of dry mouth in the adult population are due to the use of medications and radiation treatment to the neck and head region with increasing number of chronic disorders.
Hence, the growing adult population is expected to lead demand for xerostomia treatment by age group.
Will Mail Order Pharmacies Drive Sales of Xerostomia Treatment Product Manufacturers?
By distribution channel, mail order pharmacies are anticipated to hold the highest share of 26.3% in 2022, expanding at a rapid rate of 6.7% CAGR during the forecast period.
For the treatment of xerostomia, the most common are OTC products, which are easily available in pharmacies and online platforms. However, non-adherence to medication is a major problem that leads to poor outcomes. However, several studies have shown that there is better medication adherence with the use of mail order pharmacy deliveries.
In addition, several benefits offered by mail order pharmacies such as home delivery, health plan discounts, special customer services, and easy refill of medicines are expected to lead to high growth of the segment over the forecast period.
Leading xerostomia treatment product suppliers are adopting collaboration and joint venture strategies as part of their efforts to strengthen their market presence. Key players in the xerostomia (dry mouth) treatment industry have been constantly chasing approval authorities such as FDA or DCGA in order to launch new product variants that will help them increase their market presence.
