- Bone cement and glue are medical adhesives used in orthopedic surgeries to anchor implants or stabilize bone fractures. Bone cement, typically made from polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), is a widely used material in joint replacement surgeries such as hip, knee, and shoulder arthroplasty. It helps to secure prosthetic components to the bone, providing stability and promoting better fixation. Bone glue, on the other hand, is a more recent development, designed to offer stronger bonding properties and better biocompatibility. It is often used in minimally invasive procedures, fracture fixation, and spinal surgeries
- The expanding adoption of bone cement and glue is primarily attributable to the increasing prevalence of orthopedic disorders, spinal conditions, and trauma cases, particularly among the aging population. The rising popularity of minimally invasive surgeries, where bone cement plays a crucial role in stabilizing bones, is also contributing to market growth. Advancements in material science have led to improved performance, biocompatibility, and reduced complications
- North America dominates the bone cement and glue market with a share of 35.5% in 2024 due to a growing number of orthopedic surgeries and an increasing demand for advanced bone fixation materials
- Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing region in the bone cement and glue market with a share of during the forecast period due to an increasing number of orthopedic surgeries due to a growing geriatric population, rising disposable incomes, and improving healthcare infrastructure across the region
- Bone cement segment dominates the market with a market share of 60.5% in 2024 due to its widespread use in orthopedic surgeries, particularly for joint fixation and vertebral augmentation. Its high compressive strength, quick setting time, and long-established clinical safety record make bone cement the standard choice for stabilizing implants, especially in aging populations with osteoporosis
