Dental CAD/CAM Market Analysis

Dental CAD/CAM Market Analysis

Dental CAD/CAM market is segmented based on type into in-lab systems and in-office systems. In-lab systems segment held the largest revenue size over USD 3.5 billion in 2023 and is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period. The segment's expansion can be attributed to rising inclination towards CAD/CAM restorations and improved technologically advanced dental CAD/CAM disease treatment efficacy. The category is anticipated to experience increasing demand due to patients' growing preference for dental CAD/CAM for managing their dental conditions. Moreover, several benefits offered by CAD/CAM restorations such as accuracy, efficiency, aesthetics, durability will present the market with tremendous growth prospects. Also, an increase in the availability of products coupled with several other businesses working towards creating innovative technology will support the segment's revenue expansion.
 

Dental CAD/CAM market is bifurcated based on the component including hardware and software. Hardware segment held largest revenue share of 75% in 2032. Intraoral scanners are an example of cutting-edge hardware solutions that capture digital imprints of the teeth instead of the more conventional physical impressions. The accuracy, speed, and patient comfort of these scanners are all improvising in order to address larger patient population.
 

Additionally, innovative software solutions have been created to enhance dental restoration design and production. These software alternatives include 3D printing software, which can make physical replicas of restorations, and sophisticated computer algorithms, which can design restorations more quickly and accurately. The application of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms to enhance the accuracy of restoration design and manufacturing is another new advancement in dental CAD/CAM industry. AI and ML systems are capable of scanning vast volumes of data and find patterns; hence these systems assist dentists in creating more accurate and realistic-looking restorations. Such benefits offered by the dental CAD/CAM will drive the market statistics.
 

Dental CAD/CAM market by end-use is segmented into dental clinics, dental laboratories, and dental milling centres. Dental clinics segment accounting for over 38% market share in 2022. With increasing demand for dental care services, the use of dental CAD/CAM is anticipated to elevate. These devices can be used for dental restorations including implants, dentures, etc. Thus, the expanding sophisticated dental infrastructure and accessibility will drive the demand for dental CAD/CAM. This is because dental CAD/CAM provide a more convenient and efficient way for patients, which can reduce the burden on healthcare facilities and improve patient outcomes.
 

North America dental CAD/CAM market accounted for more than USD 800 million in 2022 and will grow momentously during the analysis timeframe. The affordability of dental CAD/CAM by dental settings and ongoing technological developments in the field of managing dental diseases are primarily responsible for the regional market expansion. Also, the region's high healthcare spending on health care management and rising disposable income will propel the expansion of the North American market trends. Also, high adoption rate of advanced dental technologies, presence of major players in the region, and the increasing prevalence of dental disorders, particularly in the U.S. will lead to market statistics over the forecast timeframe.
