Dental imaging Market Size

Dental Imaging Market size was valued at over USD 3 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach more than USD 7 billion by 2032. Dental imaging refers to the use of various imaging techniques to capture detailed images of the teeth, jaws, and surrounding oral structures for diagnostic and treatment purposes. It is an essential part of dental care and plays a crucial role in identifying dental problems, planning treatments, and monitoring oral health.
 

Dental Imaging Market

The growing prevalence of dental ailments such as dental caries (tooth decay), periodontal disorders, tooth loss, and oral cancers is propelling market forward. For instance, the World Health Organisation (WHO) reports that 514 million children worldwide suffer from primary tooth decay, whereas 2 billion adults suffer from caries of the permanent teeth. Oral illnesses affect about 3.5 billion people worldwide. Therefore, growing prevalence of dental disease requires an oral health education, accessible dental care services, promotion of healthy lifestyle habits, and public health initiatives aimed at improving overall oral health awareness.
 

COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the dental imaging market. During the COVID-19 pandemic, many non-essential dental treatments were postponed or delayed in order to reduce the danger of viral transmission. Only emergency situations and traumatic dental injuries were handled. As a result, there was a decrease in demand for dental imaging. In addition, interruptions in the global supply chain resulted in decreased and delayed availability of medical equipment, which contributed to the price increase.  Furthermore, the pandemic increased the use of tele dentistry and remote consultations as a substitute to in-person appointments. The decreased necessity for imaging in remote consultations influenced the demand for imaging equipment.
 

Dental imaging Market Trends

The demand for cosmetic dentistry has been increasing in recent years owing to increased emphasis on physical appearance, including a desire for a beautiful smile. People are more conscious of their dental appearance and seek cosmetic dentistry procedures to enhance the aesthetics. Moreover, cosmetic dentistry procedures such as teeth whitening, dental veneers, and orthodontic treatments can help individuals achieve a more youthful smile, that contributes to the increasing demand for these services. Many people see cosmetic dentistry as a way to improve their self-esteem and feel more confident in social and professional settings. This has led to a growing demand for dental imaging and is estimated to continue driving the market size.
