G rowing demand
for healthcare
technology
Our world is continuously evolving and being influenced by global
megatrends. These megatrends also strongly affect the field
of healthcare technology – supporting the future growth of
Planmeca Group and driving new innovations.
More demand for healthcare services
The population and middle class are growing fast, and people are living longer.
This means growing demand for healthcare services, especially in emerging
economies. Consequently, healthcare providers need to work more efficiently
and utilise their resources to the fullest – with the help of modern technology
the companies of Planmeca Group provide.
Higher interest in wellbeing and aesthetic values
Interest in predictive and preventive health care and wellbeing is increasing
along with the aesthetic values. As the middle class is growing, people are
spending more than ever before on their physical appearance – teeth included.
Technological solutions that can streamline the everyday work of dental or
medical professionals become must-haves to meet the demand.
Digitalisation spreads to all areas of life
The digital revolution has no boundaries or borders. Dental and medical
professionals are used to utilising smart features in their everyday life and
expect the same from their working equipment as well. This means increasing
demand for digital health technology solutions and new innovations.
