Dental Imaging Market Analysis
The dental imaging market is expected to register a CAGR of 9.4% during the forecast period (2022-2027).
The dental imaging market has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in its early stages. For instance, to prevent patients from overtaxing hospital emergency rooms, the American Dental Association (ADA), the largest dental association in the United States, recommended in March 2020 that dental offices delay elective dental procedures until April 6, 2020, and only offer emergency dental care. Due to an increase in COVID-19 instances, the ADA amended this advice on April 1, 2020, advising offices to remain closed to all but urgent and emergency procedures until April 30 at the earliest. Access to dental care consequently significantly diminished. An ADA Health Policy Institute poll conducted the week of March 23, 2020, revealed that 76% of the dental offices questioned were closed but only treating emergency patients, 19% were fully closed, and 5% were open but saw fewer customers. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic saw a decline in the demand for dental operations, which affected the market's expansion during this period.
The major growth drivers of the dental imaging market over the forecast period are the rising incidence of dental illnesses, technological advancements in dental treatment, and an aging population. for instance, according to a March 2022 update from the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 3.5 billion people worldwide were impacted by oral illnesses and approximately 10% of the world's population suffered from severe periodontal (gum) disease, which can cause tooth loss. Further, according to the research study published in July 2021 by Nguyen Van Chuyen et. al., dental caries is a global health concern, and the global prevalence of dental caries in primary and permanent teeth was estimated at 46.2% and 53.8 %, respectively, which was very high. Thus, with the increase in the prevalence of dental diseases, the demand for dental disease diagnosis is expected to increase which is anticipated to have a positive impact on the growth of the studied market.
Additionally, the increasing geriatric population and technological advancement in dental imaging techniques are further expected to complement the growth of the dental imaging market as dental diseases are observed to be more common in the geriatric population, and with the advancement in technology, the players in the market are innovating and launching new products which are expected to have a positive impact on the market. For instance, in April 2020, Planmeca launched ProX dental intraoral X-ray which has a modified arm and 0.4mm focal spot. Therefore, due to the above-mentioned factors, the dental imaging market is expected to grow over the forecast period. However, factors such as the high cost of dental imaging systems, stringent regulations regulating x-ray exposure, and a shortage of qualified laboratory workers are expected to restrain the dental imaging market during the forecast period.
Dental Imaging Market Trends
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Dental Imaging Market according to our research experts:
Intraoral Cameras Segment Expected to Hold Significant Market Share
In the technology segment, the intraoral camera market sector is expected to occupy a significant market share over the forecast period owing to its wide usage and advantages over others. The assessment and diagnosis of plaque development, dental cavities, gum illnesses, chipped or fractured teeth, broken dental fillings, and other oral disorders are made easier with the aid of an intraoral camera, which records films and photographs of the state of the teeth. The rising prevalence of dental problems and the expanding number of product launches are the main drivers of the segment's growth.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) figures from 2020, nearly half (46%) of all adults aged 30 or older exhibited symptoms of gum disease, and more than one-fourth (24%) of adults had untreated dental decay in the United States and, severe gum disease affected roughly 9% of all individuals. The industry is expanding as a result of the adoption of strategic initiatives by numerous market participants. For instance, MouthWatch, a provider of cutting-edge teledentistry solutions, intraoral cameras, and digital case presentation tools, introduced its MouthWatch Plus+ HD intraoral camera in October 2021. Similarly, Launch Medical presented its next-generation DL-206 intraoral scanner at the International Dental Show in September 2021, and as per the company, Launch DL-206 is a powder-free intraoral scanner with an ergonomic design, lightweight, and quick scan speed that provides excellent treatment outcomes while ensuring a comfortable scanning experience for patients and dental professionals. Thus, due to the above-mentioned factors, the segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period.
North America Held the Largest Share and is Expected to Dominate the Market during the Forecast Period
North America is anticipated to hold a significant share of the market. The incidence of dental problems is rising, more product launches and strategic initiatives are being taken by market participants, and there is a greater emphasis on research and development. These factors all contribute to the market's growth. Over 5 million Americans aged 65 to 74 had lost all of their teeth, with nearly 3 million being edentulous, according to the American Dental Association (2020). Older people frequently experience tooth loss. This is because dental caries affect 91% of adults between the ages of 20 and 64, with 27% of cases left untreated. Additionally, tooth loss is frequently brought on by tooth decay. Additionally, several industry participants are involved in strategic initiatives, which support market expansion. To improve the patient experience with improved digital imaging technology, ClearChoice Management Services (CCMS), the administrative support team that supports the ClearChoice Dental Implant Center network, signed a new agreement with Planmeca and Henry Schein in March 2022. Additionally, Envista Holdings Corporation announced in March 2022 that its KaVo imaging division will change its name to DEXIS. In addition to cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), handheld x-rays, intraoral scanners, sensors, and navigated surgical solutions, the DEXIS name would stand for a comprehensive range of imaging and digital solutions. The market is therefore anticipated to experience significant expansion throughout the projected period as a result of the aforementioned trends.
