Geographic Tongue Market Highlights
The Geographic Tongue Market is expected to reach USD 496.3 Million by 2030 at 10.6% CAGR during the forecast period 2022-2030.
Geographic tongue is characterized by the tongue inflammation and is marked by the absence of papillae, which are small bumps present under normal conditions. General discomfort of the tongue or mouth, soreness or a burning sensation of the tongue are some of the common symptoms for the disease. Increasing prevalence of the psoriasis and growing geriatric population are some of the major drivers for the market growth. Additionally, growing oral healthcare expenditures are estimated to fuel the market growth during the forecast period. However, lack of awareness, limited availability of the treatment procedures and low per capita healthcare expenditure in the middle- and low-income countries are some of the restraining factors for the market growth.
