Dental Equipment Market Scenario

The dental equipment market is estimated to attain a valuation of USD 16.9 billion by the end of the forecast period 2022-2030. The report predicts that the market will thrive at a robust CAGR of 11.5% during the assessment era.

Dental equipment refers to the instruments dental professionals use to treat dental conditions. These include tools to remove, procure, examine, and manipulate teeth and their neighboring oral structures. Periodontal disease and dental caries are considered the major dental conditions affecting most of the population. The global market for dental equipment has registered enormous growth in recent years. The market's growth is mainly credited to the development of new dental materials.

Furthermore, the demand for minimally invasive procedures, increasing use in surgical procedures, emerging aspect of cosmetic dentistry, and advancements in dental materials and procedures are also projected to boost the market's growth in the coming years. Moreover, the digitalization of dental equipment is expected to boost the demand for this equipment across the globe. On the other hand, the lack of reimbursement for dental procedures and the high cost of dental imaging systems are likely to restrict the market's growth over the forecasted era.Segmentation

The dental equipment market has been segmented based on product, treatment, and end user.

The dental equipment market, based on product has been segregated, into dental radiology equipment, dental lasers, systems & parts, laboratory machines, hygiene maintenance devices, and others. By dental radiology equipment, the dental equipment market has been sub-segmented into intra-oral, extra-oral. By dental lasers, the dental equipment market has been sub-segmented into diode lasers and carbon dioxide lasers. By system & parts, the dental equipment market has been sub-segmented into CAD/CAM, cast machine and others. The systems & parts sub-segment is expected to hold the largest market as there has been an increase in demand for CAD/CAM. CAD/ CAM system is more in demand as it minimizes the time for dental procedures. Improvement in diagnosis is expected to drive the dental equipment market growth. Moreover, dentists and laboratory technicians use new tools that are developed for computer-aided design and digital impression.

The dental equipment market, by treatment, has been classified as orthodontics, endodontics, periodontics, and prosthodontic. Among these, the prosthodontic sub-segment is the largest in terms of value and is predicted to achieve more revenue in the dental equipment market. This is due to the rising geriatric population, increased concern in terms of appearance that require prosthesis in dental cases. For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), in February 2018, between 2015–2050 the geriatric population is predicted to double from 12% to 22%.

The dental equipment market, based on end user has been classified as hospitals & clinics, dental laboratories, and others. Out of these, the hospitals segment is the largest end user of dental equipment and is anticipated to hold a major market share in the market. This is due to the increase in the number of hospitals. Also, the majority of dental procedures are been performed in hospitals as compared to dental laboratories.

The dental equipment market has been divided by region, into the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East & Africa. The dental equipment market in the Americas has further been branched into North America. The European market has been sub-divided into Western Europe and Eastern Europe. Western Europe has further been classified as Germany, France, Italy, Spain, the UK, and the rest of Western Europe. The market in Asia-Pacific has been segmented into Japan, China, India, South Korea, Australia, and the rest of Asia Pacific. The dental equipment market in the Middle East & Africa has been divided into the Middle East and Africa.

Regional Market Summary

The dental equipment market in America is projected to be the largest during the forecast period owing to the technological advancements, rising geriatric population, increase in a number of dentists and dental clinics, and increase in the number of dental procedures. For instance, according to WHO, in September 2018, around 3.58 billion people were affected by tooth decay in permanent teeth, which is the most prevalent condition in dental disorders.

The market in Europe showed a substantial amount of growth. The dental equipment market growth in this region can be attributed to the favorable reimbursement scenario, rise in government expenditure on healthcare, and rise in the geriatric population.

The market in Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest in the dental equipment market due to the growing demand for dental procedures, less stringent regulations, adoption of innovative technologies, and rise in medical tourism. Moreover, there has been an increase in oral cancers such as cancer of the oral cavity, cancer of the lip. According to WHO, in September 2018, the incidence of oral cancer is prevailing as one of the top three of all the cancers.

The dental equipment market in Middle East & Africa is expected to grow at a substantial rate due to the increase in the demand for dental procedures in the region.
