International Dental Lab Expo & Conference (IDLEC) - An Exclusive Event on Dental Laboratory Segment


International Dental Lab Expo & Conference event was an initiative taken in 2017 by IVORY EXHIBITIONS AND CONFERENCES a Delhi based Event Management Company in order to bring into light the not so glamorous job of dental technicians. As mentioned earlier that this one of its kind conference is being organised with the sole motive of upgrading the knowledge and level of work being done by the dental technicians in INDIA. It was a step taken with an aim of bringing in to notice the secluded territory of dentistry which is not less than a spouse for it.

But despite of its crucial role in dentistry it has been constantly ignored to an extent that many people don’t even know about this profession. And as people are not aware of the very existence than how come they would ever come to know about the battles that are being fought by them on daily basis for the mere survival. 

The problem could be noticed from the fact that there are so many colleges throughout the country producing every year hundreds and thousands of dentists but only a handful of institutions offering courses for technicians that’s why there are few qualified technicians in the country as a result of which this profession is dying day by day.

To make the situation even worse the technological advancements, working environment, and educational facilities being provided to the technicians all over the globe are some factors that are responsible for widening the gap between Indian technicians and the technicians from all over the world which if not taken care right now than it will lead to even more devastating results.

So its high time when some immediate call should be taken in order to revive this almost dead profession which has been taken in the form of International Dental Lab expo & Conference which is merely a step taken at the grass root level with a hope of doing atleast something for people who are no less than the backbone of Dentistry.

Market Overview

The global dental market is growing at a rate of CAGR 5% in the last five years with the Asian markets showing highest growth of 10% followed by the US at almost half the rate of 5.5%. With over 8000 dental laboratories, 306 dental institutes, the Indian dental market is vast and it is predicted that India will be the single largest country market for dental products and materials.
The Indian dental market is expected to have a growth rate of 20 to 30 percent, with investment groups building multispecialty hospitals offering general dentistry and specialist treatments. The current dentist to population ratio in urban area is 1:9000 and in rural areas it is 1:200000. The value of dental equipment and laboratories market itself is about US$ 90 million annually.


DENTAL LABORATORY/DENTAL TECHNICIAN
There is a greater demand than supply of dental technicians in India. There are more than 8,000 dental laboratories and thirty five training institutions for dental technicians. Given the relatively low ratio of dental technician to dental population, there is still tremendous scope for overseas professional organisations to enter this field and set up quality laboratories in the country. More colleges are now offering the course to match the growing demand.
A large portion of dental products are imported into the country. About 85% of India's annual requirement is supplied by Germany, USA, Italy, Japan and China. Most of the imports are in the implants segment.
Foreign companies are investing in the Indian dental equipment market by establishing their production units in India. India is rapidly becoming a manufacturing hub for supplying dental equipment and material to less developed countries such as Pakistan, Africa, Sri Lanka and parts of the Middle East.
