Emium Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Masahiko Inada, hereinafter "the Company") announces a major update to the management dashboard function of its cloud-based core business system for dental technology, "Emium Cloud Dental Technology."
In this update, in addition to the real-time visualization of KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) such as monthly sales, number of orders, average unit price, remake rate, and insurance ratio, we have newly implemented and strengthened advanced management analysis functions specialized for dental laboratory management, including customer-specific analysis, product-specific analysis, technician-specific analysis, and pivot analysis.
With this, we provide an environment where the management of dental laboratories and in-hospital labs can practice "data-driven management" that does not rely on intuition or experience.
■ Background of the Update
Structural Challenges Facing the Dental Technology Industry
The dental technology industry in Japan is facing a dual challenge of a severe talent shortage and a deteriorating business environment.
According to the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's "Report on Public Health Administration and Services," the number of employed dental technicians has continued to decline from a peak of about 37,000 in 2000 to sharply drop to about 33,000 in 2022. The number of successful national exam candidates has also decreased to less than two-thirds over the past 10 years, putting the industry's sustainability in question.
In addition, about 70% of dental laboratories in Japan are "one-person labs" run by a single technician, where long working hours have become the norm. In a 2023 survey by the Tokyo Medical Practitioners Association, 35-55% of employed dental technicians responded that they work over 80 hours of overtime per month.
In such circumstances, improving profitability and optimizing operations through the visualization and analysis of data necessary for management decisions is essential for the sustainable growth of dental laboratories and the realization of work-style reforms.
Global Trends in Data Utilization at Dental Labs
The global dental laboratory market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.6% from 2025 to 2030, with "comprehensive integration and automation of digital workflows" and "AI-driven design and quality control" cited as main factors driving this growth.
Large-scale digital integrated management is progressing primarily in the United States, and in China, large dental laboratories employing over 500 technicians are building data-driven quality control systems. In Japan as well, the advancement of management combining digital technology and data analysis has become an urgent theme.
■ Overview of Management Dashboard Update
With this update, the management dashboard of "Emium Cloud Dental Technology" has evolved into an integrated management analysis platform that comprehensively visualizes key KPIs necessary for dental lab management and enables multifaceted analysis. The main features are as follows.
