Glucose excipient is widely used in dental restoration as it enhances the properties of dental materials like acrylics, composites and cements. Glucose excipient helps in improving mechanical properties, hydrophilicity and biocompatibility of these dental materials. It is added as filler in dental acrylics and composites to impart strength, hardness and toughness. Glucose also enhances flowability and workability of dental cements helping in easy application and adaptation to cavity walls. These advantages have led to the increased use of glucose excipient containing dental materials for making customized crowns, bridges, dentures and implants.
The global glucose excipient Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 5,863.3 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 8.0% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
