    [Pharmaceutical Network Pharmaceutical Stock Market] In recent years, with the improvement of people's living standards, changes in living habits and dietary structure, the occurrence of oral diseases such as gingivitis, periodontitis, and tooth decay has become more and more common
    .

    These dental diseases may cause pain and tooth loss in mild cases, and may also induce other problems such as gastrointestinal diseases, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes, and Alzheimer's disease in severe cases
    .

    With the enhancement of people's awareness of dental health, dental care has become the choice of more and more people, and the entire oral medical service industry has also ushered in a huge development prospect
    .

    Among them, orthodontics and dental implants have a broad market space, and may become the core of the growth of the oral medical industry
    .

    According to estimates, the current market sizes of dental implants and orthodontics in China are 34.
    7 billion yuan and 27.
    1 billion yuan respectively, and the penetration rates are only 0.
    15% and 0.
    68%.
    With the increase in the penetration rates of dental implants and orthodontics, the future market is expected to reach 200 billion yuan or more than 300 billion yuan
    .

       However, it is also a consensus that dental care is expensive, and the cost of tens of thousands of yuan is not a small expense for ordinary consumers
    .

    Industry analysis pointed out that the reason why dental treatment is expensive is mainly due to the high cost of materials and labor, and related to most items of oral treatment that are not covered by medical insurance, such as simple filling surgery, complex filling surgery, root canal treatment and other dental treatments.
    Items can be reimbursed, and dental implants, orthodontics, etc.
    all need to be paid at their own expense, so the cost will be relatively high
    .

       The good news is that recently, the National Medical Insurance Bureau pointed out in a reply that it will establish and improve the medical insurance access management system for medical consumables, gradually improve the management of medical consumables, and timely include qualified consumables and diagnosis and treatment items into the scope of medical insurance payment; research and exploration will It is a feasible path for dental projects to be included in the scope of commercial insurance payment, and commercial insurance companies are encouraged to strengthen cooperation with dental consumables manufacturers and medical institutions, and research and formulate dental specialty insurance projects that meet market demand
    .

       According to the industry, the cost of dental visits in private hospitals is generally relatively high, and the reimbursement of medical insurance for dental visits is limited.
    If commercial insurance reimbursement is available, it will help to further reduce the burden of dental visits for consumers
    .

       The author has learned that, in fact, many commercial insurance companies have issued special dental insurance before
    .

    The so-called dental insurance is jointly launched by private dental clinics and insurance companies, and is specially designed for reimbursement of expenses related to dental treatment and restoration.
    Its coverage generally includes four aspects: health treatment, basic treatment, complex treatment and accidental treatment
    .

       Generally speaking, however, dental insurance covers both dental treatment and accidental dental coverage
    .

    Among them, dental treatment includes not only daily preventive health care, but also basic treatment such as tooth extraction and complex treatment such as orthodontics and implant correction
    .

    In this regard, some insurance company personnel said that dental insurance is a product of cooperation between insurance companies and dental clinics.
    The purpose is not just for profit, but also to drain dental clinics and do some advertising
    .

       Affected by the release of the news, dental stocks rose on September 23.
