"Designing Growth Strategies is in our DNA"
The dental market size was valued at USD 36.08 billion in 2022 and is projected to grow from USD 38.21 billion in 2023 to USD 65.23 billion by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 7.9%. The dental market growth will be influenced by the rising prevalence of malocclusion, periodontitis, and tooth decay.
Dental products constitute equipment and consumables that help treat, prevent, and diagnose various ailments such as gum disease, periodontitis, malocclusion, and cavities. Several products on the market include implants, periodontics, endodontics, prosthetics, and whitening products. The various benefits associated with periodontics and endodontics include virtually pain-free procedures and cost-effectiveness, which have increased the adoption of these products. Furthermore, the growing demand for aesthetic dentistry and the rising number of product launches by key industry participants are set to boost the market growth over 2023-2030.
COVID-19 Negatively Impacted Market Revenue in 2020 Due to Lower Patient Volume in Clinics
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic declined the demand for dentistry products due to declined patient visits. Several companies recorded a significant decline in their revenues due to the pandemic. The reallocation of healthcare resources, supply chain disruptions, and declining patient visits to clinics impacted the sales of prosthetics, implants, and scanners across the world, especially during the first quarter of 2020.
In 2021, the patient volume bounced back in the U.S. owing to the factors such as higher coverage of vaccination, stringent regulatory guidelines and coronavirus protocols in public places, and the dismissal of restrictions for travel. This led to the increased demand for implants and scanners in 2021.
However, in 2022, there was a decline in the sales of dental products in certain geographic areas. At the start of the second quarter of 2022, China began to periodically re-impose severe restrictions on individual and business activities in response to the resurgence of COVID-19 infections from several virus variants. This resulted in a decline in revenue due to distribution constraints and lower demand from reduced patient traffic locally. From 2023 onward, the market is expected to grow at a steady rate due to the resumption of treatments in clinics and growing product launches by market players across the world.

Rising Popularity of Invisible Orthodontics to Propel Industry Growth
Some of the global dental market trends include the adoption of invisible orthodontics. Invisible orthodontics provides an array of benefits such as lesser irritation to the cheeks and gums, fewer visits to dentists, easy removal of braces, and customizing ability based on patient requirements. Such benefits add to the escalated adoption of invisible orthodontic services in treating malocclusions.
The surging adoption of invisible orthodontics has created growth opportunities for market players, enhancing the production of clear aligners.
The robust focus of companies on enhancing production and the greater adoption of invisible orthodontics is expected to enhance product demand in the long run.
Surge in Advancements in Dental Devices to Spur Market Growth
Growing technological advancements such as digital technologies, including machine learning (ML), and artificial intelligence (AI) have increased the adoption of novel products in the market.
Furthermore, the incorporation of robotics engineering in these procedures is another advancement in the market. In coming years, the minimally invasive, robot-assisted surgery will be the new standard of care in implantology which includes implants procedures.
Such increasing focus of market players on the R&D of new products coupled with the emerging novel technologies are expected to boost the market growth during the forecast period.
Growing Prevalence of Dental Ailments Globally to Drive Market Growth
The growing prevalence of oral disorders is the major factor responsible for boosting the global market growth. Key disorder, such as periodontal disease, tooth decay, and malocclusion contributing to the high demand and adoption of a wide range of prosthetics, implants, and intraoral scanners.
Early detection of the disease helps in planning interceptive and preventive measures that can alleviate the development of misalignment and other deformities. Around 60-70% of the population suffers from malocclusion, thereby increasing the product demand in the long run. Furthermore, market players are launching various advanced products for hygienists and assistants to treat ailments, thereby fostering the market revenue in the long run.
A large patient population coupled with an increase in the launch of products that dentists can use are expected to propel the market growth during the forecast period.
Inadequate Reimbursement and High Cost for Dental Services to Hamper Market Growth
Some of the most important factors that influence services for patients are reimbursements and the cost of treatments. However, the high cost of treatment and limited reimbursement restrict the market growth significantly, especially in developing nations. The high cost leads to delays and treatment cancellations, reducing consumables’ adoption to a considerable extent.
Moreover, the insurance available for the treatment is significantly lower than the healthcare insurance available for other conditions. Most of the financing for these procedures is done through out-of-pocket spending or private health insurance. Such low reimbursement and insurance trends reduce patient treatments and visits in dentist offices, limiting the global market growth.
