The global dental services market size was valued at USD 393.42 billion in 2023. The market is projected to grow from USD 415.10 billion in 2024 to USD 863.71 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 9.6% during the forecast period.


Dental services mainly focus on maintaining dental hygiene, ensuring healthy teeth and mouth among the patient population. These services include diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of various dental disorders such as cracked teeth and hyperdontia. The growing prevalence of dental disorders such as dental caries, tooth erosion, and gum infections, among others, is resulting in growing demand for these services globally.



  • For instance, in March 2023, according to the data published by the World Health Organization (WHO), it was estimated that approximately 3.5 billion people are affected by oral diseases globally.


The growing awareness of technological advancements in these services, such as the introduction of laser dentistry intraoral cameras, among others, are some of the additional factors contributing to the global dental services market size.


The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on market, lowering the demand for these services due to restrictions imposed on the movement during the pandemic. Additionally, supply chain disruption for dental instruments and products, including dental implants, consumables, accessories, among others, also impacted these services during the pandemic.


Dental Services Market Trends


Growing Adoption of Cosmetic Dental Procedures


The rising demand for these services among the patient population is driving advancements in dental technology. As focus on appearance has become increasingly popular among individuals, dental aesthetics has emerged as a prominent factor for the achievement of a satisfactory look.


Moreover, there is an increasing demand for smile makeover procedures such as dental veneers, composite bonding, and tooth whitening, among others. Smile makeovers are generally performed for many reasons and can be customized according to the patient's needs.



  • For instance, in February 2024, according to the data published by Dentistry Brands LLC, it was reported that approximately 35.26 million patients underwent teeth whitening procedures in the U.S.


Although cosmetic treatments are usually elective, they provide restorative benefits, including functional teeth and improved oral health, among others.

The aforementioned benefits associated with cosmetic dentistry have caused the shift toward these procedures among patients.

Dental Services Market Growth Factors


Increasing Prevalence of Dental Disorders Among the Population to Boost Market Growth


The growing prevalence of dental disorders such as misaligned teeth, tooth decay, impacted tooth, and others are resulting in rising demand for these services among patients. This, along with rising awareness about oral health, is also expected to support the growing adoption of these services globally.



  • For instance, according to a 2022 Global Oral Health Report published by the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 2 billion people suffered from caries of permanent teeth, and 514 million children suffer from caries of primary teeth.


Additionally, increasing urbanization, changes in living conditions, and consumption of food and beverages high in sugar, among others, are some of the other factors contributing to the growing prevalence of dental disorders. Therefore, increasing prevalence of these conditions, along with growing awareness about the benefits of various dental procedures, is likely to support the growing adoption of these services and further the global dental services market growth.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


High Cost of Dental Procedures to Hamper Market Growth


Despite the advantages of these dental procedures, one of the major limitations is the high cost associated with dental procedures, limiting the adoption of these services among patients. Installation of dental equipment requires high capital and incurs various associated costs, resulting in growing service fees for patients.


Higher cost of dental instruments, coupled with the cost associated with maintenance and replacement, such as dental chairs and others, is one of the major factors resulting in the surging service fees charged by dentists. The higher cost of these dental procedures further hinders the adoption of these services among patients in the market. According to the 2020 data published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it was reported that more than 1 in 4 adults have untreated tooth decay in the U.S.



  • For instance, according to 2023 data published by Sani Dental Group, the cost of regular teeth cleaning is USD 140, and the cost of laser teeth whitening is about USD 900.

  • Similarly, according to the data 2023 data published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it was reported that dental care costs about USD 124 billion each year among patients.


Thus, the high cost and limited reimbursement policies for these services are further increasing the financial burden among the patient population, thereby hampering the adoption and further growth of the market.

Dentistry Segment Dominated the Market due to Increasing Number of General Dentistry Procedures 


Based on specialty, the market is segmented into general dentistry, oral & maxillofacial surgery, endodontics, orthodontics, and others.

By Financing Source Analysis


Out-of-Pocket/Others Segment Led the Market due to Growing Adoption of Dental Services 


Based on financing source, the market is segmented into private health insurance, public health insurance, and out-of-pocket/others.


The out-of-pocket/others segment dominated the market in 2023, driven by limited reimbursement policies for specific cosmetic dental procedures, including teeth whitening, among others, which often fall under insurance criteria.

This results in the increasing adoption of these services and further driving the growth of the segment in the market.



  • According to the 2022 data published by the American Dental Association (ADA), it was reported that government organizations spent USD 28.0 billion to cater to the patient population suffering from dental disorders.


Additionally, the private health insurance segment is also expected to grow during the forecast period. The growth is due to the increasing focus of private health insurance in widening their reimbursement coverage for these services, further resulting in growing demand for these services, and thereby supporting the growth of the segment.



  • According to the 2022 data published by the American Dental Association (ADA), it was reported that private health organizations spent USD 68 billion on dental services among patients.


By Practice Type Analysis


Solo Practices Segment Held the Largest Share owing to Increasing Number of Solo Practitioners 


By practice type, the market is segmented into solo practices, DSO/group practices, and others.


The solo practices segment accounted for the largest market share in 2023. One of the critical factors helping this segment dominate is the increasing number of solo practitioners offering these services among patients. The growing number of solo practitioners is further resulting in the rising adoption of these services in these settings, thereby favoring the growth of the segment.



  • For instance, according to a 2023 ORTHODONTIC PRACTICE SURVEY, it was reported that approximately 68% of orthodontists practice solo. Therefore, the growing number of solo practitioners is supporting the increasing adoption of dental procedures in this setting.


On the other hand, the DSO/group practices segment is anticipated to grow at a considerable growth rate during the forecast period. Factors such as the growing preference of young professionals for the DSO/group practices model to reduce the burden related to lab facilities and administration, strategic acquisitions, and mergers, among others, are supporting the growth of the segment in the market.
