The distribution of oral prosthetic supplies, including denture adhesives, is undergoing a profound transformation in India due to the rapid growth of e-commerce platforms. While traditional channels such as pharmacies and dental clinics remain essential, online retail is emerging as a critical avenue for expanding accessibility and product diversity across a vast geographic area.
Online platforms provide convenience and discretion, allowing users, particularly the elderly or those in remote areas, to easily purchase a wider variety of specialized or premium imported brands that might not be available in local stores. The ability to compare prices, read reviews, and benefit from bulk-purchase discounts makes the online channel highly appealing to cost-conscious consumers.
This digital shift also aids manufacturers by providing direct-to-consumer access, facilitating targeted advertising, and streamlining logistics. The expansion of digital payments and efficient last-mile delivery services are solidifying the e-commerce channel's role in making essential denture care products readily available throughout the country's diverse healthcare landscape.
