Dental 3D Printing Market is estimated at $2.8 Bn in 2022, is growing at a CAGR of ~20% by 2026

BRUSSELS - Oct. 11, 2022 - PRLog -- Global Dental 3D Printing Market is estimated at $2.8 Bn (2022) growing at a CAGR of ~20%. The market progress is driven by continual push to digitise dental practices, rising dental diseases, and the growth in group practices.

Increasing acceptance of digital workflow in dental practices and benefits offered by dental 3D printing is driving the demand
3D-printing is a part of the digital workflow that is becoming more and more common in the dental practices. An intra-oral scan is performed by the dentist on the patient, and a digital copy of the scan is electronically sent to a dental lab. As soon as the technician receives a copy of the scan, a 3D model may be created. 3D models designed this way are more stable, durable and precise compared to traditional/milled models. Dental 3D printing has increased the laboratory output, reduced fabrication and overall patient treatment time.

Group practices to drive the adoption of dental 3D printers
Group dental practices are expanding quickly, particularly in developed markets. According to the latest data from the American Dental Association's Health Policy Institute, there has been a downward trend in solo practitioners in the U.S. In 1999, 65% of the U.S. dentists ran solo practices which decreased to 50% in 2019. Group practice offer economies of scale, greater cash flow, ability to survive a downturn, and flexibility to cater to patient needs. It rises purchasing power and enable investments in advanced technologies such as digital scanners and dental 3D printing equipment.

High prevalence of dental diseases is fueling the Dental 3D Printing Market growth
Dental caries is a common disease in all age groups, leading to high incidence of decayed and missing teeth. The CDC estimates that in 2019, ~65% of adults aged above 18 years of age had a dental examination or dental cleaning procedure. According to the American College of Prosthodontists, ~120 million of the U.S. population are missing at least one tooth. The number of partially edentulous patients is expected to increase to over 200 million in the coming 15 years. A lost tooth is increasingly being replaced with a single crown. According to the American College of Prosthodontists, over 2.3 million implant-supported crowns are made annually in the U.S. Expanded use of 3D printing to design such crowns and implants will drive the market growth.
