DYM high-end dental equipment shares with you the prospects of the dental market in Liuzhou

I. Liuzhou population and GDP data (2024)

1. Population size: At the end of 2023, the permanent population of Liuzhou City was 4.1535 million, and the urbanization rate was 71.23%, ranking second in Guangxi. The trend of population aging is significant, with the population over 60 years old accounting for 17.19% (714,800) and the population over 65 years old accounting for 12.44% (517,300). It is expected that the aging rate will exceed 20% during the “14th Five-Year Plan” period.

2. Overview of Liuzhou economy: In 2024, the city’s GDP reached 295.067 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 1.5%, of which the tertiary industry (service industry) accounted for 50.85%, becoming the main engine of economic growth. The industrial foundation is strong, and the three pillar industries of automobiles, machinery, and steel account for 70.65% of the total industrial output value above the scale, and the output of new energy vehicles ranks among the top in the country.

II. Characteristics of Liuzhou’s Dietary Habits

Liuzhou’s diet is centered on sour, spicy, and fresh flavors, integrating the atmosphere of an industrial city with the flavors of ethnic minorities:

Representative delicacies:

Snail noodles: With snail soup, sour bamboo shoots, and yuba as its soul, the average daily sales volume exceeds one million bowls. The high salt and spicy characteristics may increase the risk of periodontal disease and acid erosion.

Other characteristics: Sanjiang oil tea (containing tea alkali that irritates the oral mucosa), Niuxianzi (fried noodles are prone to tooth decay), Rong’an filter powder (strong soup and strong flavor), etc.

Health challenges:

The popularity of high-sugar beverages (such as sugary carbonated beverages) and processed foods (such as seasoned snacks) has led to an increase in tooth decay rates. Data from the Liuzhou Municipal Health Commission shows that the prevalence of periodontal disease in adults exceeds 80%, and the tooth decay rate in children is 55%.

III. Scale and structure of the dental industry in Liuzhou

1. Number and distribution of institutions

Representative public institutions:

Department of Stomatology, Liuzhou People’s Hospital: the largest public dental clinic in central Guangxi, equipped with 42 dental comprehensive treatment tables and digital implant guides, with an annual outpatient volume of more than 80,000 people and a team of more than 70 doctors (including 4 senior professional titles and 15 associate senior professional titles), responsible for the diagnosis and treatment of difficult cases in the region and teaching tasks.

Department of Stomatology, Liuzhou Workers’ Hospital: with 16 dental chairs and 24 medical staff, it is good at complex implant surgery and maxillofacial surgery, and completes more than 500 dental implants per year.

Private dental clinics: more than 50 in the city

Liuzhou Zhongrui Stomatology: one city and two hospitals, with a total area of ​​more than 1,200 square meters, equipped with digital implant guides and iTero intraoral scanners, and completes more than 800 dental implants per year, supporting the collective purchase price of 3,880 yuan per tooth.

Liuzhou Blue Sky Dental: Three branches cover the urban area, providing digital implant and invisible correction services, serving more than 15,000 people annually

Liuzhou Kangle Dental Hospital: A secondary specialized dental hospital with four outpatient departments, more than 600 dental implants are completed annually, and the children’s dentistry features are prominent.

Dental Department of General Hospital: For example, the Dental Department of Liuzhou Liutie Central Hospital is equipped with 16 dental chairs, 24 medical staff, and more than 30,000 outpatient visits per year.

2. Dental Doctor Resources

Public Institutions: 70 people in the Dental Department of Liuzhou People’s Hospital, 24 people in the Dental Department of Liuzhou Workers’ Hospital, and 24 people in the Dental Department of Liuzhou Liutie Central Hospital, totaling about 118 people (including 20 people with senior professional titles). Private institutions: 26 people in Zhongrui Dental, more than 30 people in Lantian Dental, and more than 20 people in Kangle Dental. The total number of private dentists in the city is estimated to be about 250-300, showing a pattern of “public-based basics and private-dominated mainstream”.

Talent gap: The demand for dental recruitment in 2024 will increase by 10% year-on-year, and dental implant and orthodontic specialists are particularly in short supply.

IV. The largest dental clinic in Liuzhou: Department of Stomatology, Liuzhou People’s Hospital

As the largest public dental clinic in Liuzhou, the department ranks among the top in the city in terms of technology, equipment and services:

Hardware facilities: It covers an area of ​​nearly 3,000 square meters, equipped with 42 dental chairs, digital implant guides, and 3D printing technology. A single store completes more than 1,200 dental implants per year.

Technical strength: The team has completed more than 8,000 dental implants and more than 1,500 invisible corrections. It is good at complex bone defect implants, digital full-mouth restoration and other difficult operations, and the postoperative swelling rate is less than 3%. Service features: 24-hour dental emergency (more than 1,000 cases of acute toothache at night are handled annually), children’s comfort diagnosis and treatment center (more than 3,000 children are served annually), and the collective purchase price of dental implants is implemented at 3,800 yuan/piece, supporting medical insurance to reimburse part of the expenses.

V. Development prospects and future trends of Liuzhou’s dental industry

Policy drive: Guangxi’s grassroots health service capacity improvement action promotes the sinking of oral medical resources, and the number of private clinics has increased by 10% annually. The collective purchase policy of dental implants further lowers the treatment threshold, and the outpatient volume in 2024 will increase by 8% year-on-year.

Technology upgrade: Digital diagnosis and treatment are becoming more popular. For example, Zhongrui Dental Hospital introduced 3D printing technology to achieve seamless matching between implants and natural teeth, with an aesthetic satisfaction rate of 95%; Blue Sky Dental Hospital applied a digital orthodontic system to shorten the treatment cycle by 20%.

Demand differentiation: Aging has given rise to the rigid demand for dental implants, and young groups have driven the growth of high-end services such as invisible correction and aesthetic restoration. In 2025, the demand for dental recruitment increased by 10% year-on-year, indicating that the talent gap in the industry has widened.

Driven by changes in the population structure, consumption upgrades and policy support, the dental industry in Liuzhou presents the characteristics of “public institutions guarantee the foundation, private chains dominate the mainstream, and technical services are upgraded”. The Department of Stomatology of Liuzhou People’s Hospital has become a regional benchmark with its scale advantages and technological innovation. In the future, with the deepening of digital diagnosis and treatment and the implementation of centralized procurement policies, the industry will continue to develop in the direction of refinement and universalization.

As a domestic high-end dental equipment supplier, DYM’s product matrix (such as comprehensive dental treatment chairs, waterless drive negative pressure suction systems, oral endoscopes, dental handpieces, positive and negative pressure room equipment, sewage treatment equipment, etc.) is highly consistent with the upgrade needs of Liuzhou dental institutions. For example, after the expansion of the Department of Stomatology of Liuzhou Liutie Central Hospital, the number of dental chairs increased to 21. DYM’s ergonomic dental chairs (using Danish motors and intelligent induction water-adding devices) can improve the diagnosis and treatment efficiency and patient comfort of public hospitals. We aim to provide dentists and patients with ultra-comfortable dental chairs that are comfortable to lie down for a long time without getting tired and comfortable and beautiful teeth. In addition, private clinics in Liuzhou, such as Bozhong Dental Clinic, have introduced high-end dental equipment such as German 3D oral CT machines and professional dental implant chairs.

DYM’s high-end dental equipment (such as digital oral endoscopes and intelligent sealing printers) can be used as a supplementary option to help dental clinics achieve lightweight equipment upgrades. In terms of technology penetration, DYM’s waterless drive negative pressure machine saves about 300 tons of water each year through dry extraction technology, which is in line with Liuzhou’s environmental protection orientation of “industrial city ecological transformation”. This technology may be included in the renovation and expansion projects of public hospitals such as Liuzhou People’s Hospital, or introduced into teaching practice by Liuzhou Health Vocational College to improve infection control standards. It is worth noting that Guangxi’s dental implant centralized procurement policy (single conventional implant medical service fee ≤ 3,680 yuan) has promoted private clinics to reduce costs.

DYM’s dental implant chairs and other equipment may become the key dental equipment choice for institutions such as Liuzhou Yaboshi Dental Clinic and Dongyu Dental Clinic to enhance the competitiveness of implant projects with their cost-effectiveness, stable quality, and quick response to after-sales service.

The high cost-effectiveness of DYM dental equipment is particularly prominent in the private dental market in Liuzhou. The effective service life of our comprehensive dental treatment chairs has been increased from 10 years to 15 years, with a warranty period of 2 years, reducing the frequency of equipment replacement. In addition, the waterless negative pressure machine reduces operating expenses through maintenance-free design. Such characteristics meet the cost control needs of small and medium-sized clinics in Liuzhou. At the policy level, Liuzhou has promoted the “industry-to-industry” project in recent years to improve industrial efficiency.

As a local dental equipment manufacturer in Foshan, DYM Medical can reduce logistics costs and further enhance its price competitiveness through the supply chain advantages of the Pearl River Delta. For example, DYM provides door-to-door service within 24 hours to cooperative customers in the Pearl River Delta region, free site planning, and one-stop efficient after-sales service for dental equipment installation, which has a strong landing value for the rapid implementation and operation of dental clinics in Liuzhou. DYM helps Liuzhou dental practitioners improve their equipment operation skills through in-depth services such as equipment use training, installation training, and maintenance training.
