Rising Geriatric Population
According to data from the 2017 Revision of World Population Prospects, the number of older people, aged 60 years or more, is expected to grow more than two-fold by 2050, and more than three-fold by 2100, i.e., increasing from 962 million, in 2017, to 2.1 billion in 2050, and further to 3.1 billion in 2100, globally. In 2017, there were approximately 962 million people aged 60 or more, worldwide, comprising 13% of the global population, and at present, is growing at a rate of about 3% per year. Currently, Europe has the largest percentage of the population aged 60 or more (25%). A rapid increase in the same is expected in other parts of the world as well. By 2050, all regions of the world, except Africa, are expected to have nearly a quarter or more of their populations at ages 60 and above. The global increase in the geriatric population could lead to consequences, such as greater incidences of dental problems along with the chronic and life-threatening diseases. Aging is associated with a loss in cognition, slowing of normal metabolism, and loss of elasticity for normal tissues. Older people run a higher risk of getting dental issues. Hence, the increasing dental cases are making the clinics to adopt the dental practice management software for the benefit of patients. The rapidly increasing geriatric population, particularly in Europe and Japan, is, therefore, driving the growth of the global dental practice management software market. The other factors such as increasing awareness and focus on oral health in the US and Europe and accelerating technological advancements in developed regions are driving the dental practice management software market.
Shortage of Skilled IT Professionals
There is a stiff demand for skilled IT professionals, mostly in the maintenance and creation of medical software’s, cybersecurity and system integration. However, IT labor crunch has been a major challenge for the healthcare sector and the management of software such as dental practice management software. Healthcare IT software integration requires experienced IT managers and executives to control and maintain this software. The competition for information-security analyst managers, research scientists and data administrators is intense and often do not match the lucrative offers of the software industry. This a major reason for the lack of skilled IT personnel’s in the healthcare industry. Apart from the developed countries of North America and Europe, the crunch is highly prominent in the countries of Asia and Africa that are still to achieve medical facilities in remote areas.
Lack of resources and lucrative offers has thus made healthcare IT less attractive for skilled IT professionals and has restrained the growth of the dental practice management software market.
