Dental Restoration Market

Dental Restoration Market Research, 2031

The dental restoration market size was valued at $1.4 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $2.5 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2022 to 2031.

Dental restoration is a treatment designed to restore the aesthetics and function of a damaged tooth. Dental restoration techniques rely heavily on precious metals, and in particular on gold, for the filling of cavities and the construction of orthodontic appliances, crowns, bridges, and partials. There are two types of dental restoration such as direct restoration and indirect restoration. A direct restoration typically uses composite resin or a glass ionomer. Both of these materials are safe for humans and have a good appearance. They are available in tooth color, and giving them a natural appearance in the mouth. Moreover, an indirect restoration can occur in a dental lab which has specialized equipment. These types of restorations are made with ceramic or porcelain.

The COVID-19 outbreak had a negative impact on the growth of the dental restoration market. Most of the non-emergency and minor procedures were canceled or postponed during pandemic. In addition, research studies demonstrated that dental surgeons were more vulnerable for contracting and transmitting the coronavirus due to procedures of dental treatments. Hence, above circumstances led to cancellation of many non-essential dental procedures across the globe.

The dental restoration market growth is majorly driven by rise in prevalence of dental disorders such as dental caries and development of new dental restorative materials by large number of key players. For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2020, approximately 2.3 billion people were diagnosed with caries of permanent teeth across the globe. In addition, insufficient fluoride is the primary risk factor for dental caries. Other risk factors for dental caries include, lifestyle modifications, behavioral qualities, dietary habits, socioeconomic standing, and socio-demographic attributes. Thus, changes in lifestyle lead to increase in tooth caries, which in turn drives up the demand for restoration in dental procedures, which is expected to boost the market expansion.

Furthermore, the Global Burden of Disease, in 2020, reported that around 2.4 billion people globally were affected with dental caries. In addition, the increased need for routine dental exams makes it easier to identify diseases like tooth decay and damaged tooth tissue. It results in increase in the need for crowns, root canals, and fillings and fuels the growth of the dental restoration market. In addition, the market for dental restorative materials is expected to develop due to increase in dental clinics and the number of experts performing dental procedures.

In addition, rise in disposable income among the population of developing nations and increase in dental R&D activities, both contribute to the market's expansion. Furthermore, increase in number of product approvals is expected to provide remunerative opportunities for the expansion of the global dental restoration market during the forecast period. In addition, increase in healthcare expenditure by government led to boost the market growth. For instance, according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, the U.S. healthcare spending grew by 9.7% from 2019 to 2020, reaching $4.1 trillion ($12,530 per person). Similarly, as per the Office for National Statistics, total healthcare expenditure in UK accounted for 12.8% of the gross domestic product (GDP) in 2020, as compared to 10.2% in 2019. Furthermore, it has been estimated that approximately 30% of the healthcare expenditure is used in upgrading the healthcare infrastructure, especially medical equipment and material used at public health centers, such as hospitals. 

The dental restoration market size is segmented into Material and End User. On the basis of material, it is divided into dental amalgams, resin-based composites, glass ionomers, dental ceramics, and others. By end user, the market is bifurcated into hospitals, dental clinics, and others.

Region-wise, the market is analyzed across North America (the U.S., Canada, and Mexico), Europe (Germany, France, the UK, Italy, Spain, and rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (Japan, China, Australia, India, South Korea, and rest of Asia-Pacific), and LAMEA (Brazil, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and rest of LAMEA).

Segment Review

Depending on material, the dental amalgam segment dominated the market in 2021, and this trend is expected to continue during the forecast period, owing to increase in R&D activities related to dental restoration, and rise in demand for dental amalgam to treat dental disorders. However, the resin-based composites segment is expected to witness considerable growth during the forecast period, owing to rise in demand for resin-based composites for the treatment of pediatrics, increase in number of key players for development of dental restoration materials.

By end user, the dental clinics segment was the major contributor in 2021, and is expected to maintain its lead during the forecast period, owing to increase in number of patients suffer from dental disorders such as dental caries, and tooth decay, and increase in demand for the effective treatment. However, the hospital segment is expected to witness considerable growth during the forecast period due to increase in number of hospitals.

North America garnered the major dental restoration market Share in 2021, and is expected to continue to dominate during the forecast period, owing to rise in prevalence of dental caries, presence of key players, development of the healthcare sector, adequate reimbursement policies, and presence of skilled dental professionals in the region. However, Asia-Pacific is expected to register the highest CAGR during dental restoration market forecast, owing to increase in development of healthcare infrastructure, large base of population suffering from dental disorders and rise in medical tourism.

The key players that operate in the dental restoration industry include 3M, Coltene Holding, Den-Mat Holding, Dentsply Sirona, DMG Chemish-Pharmaceutische Fabrik GmbH, GC India Dental, Danaher Corporation, Kuraray Co., Ltd, SHOFU Dental GmbH, and VOCO GmbH.
