Restorative Dentistry Market Size & Share Analysis - Growth Trends & Forecasts (2024 - 2029)

Restorative Dentistry Market Analysis

The restorative dentistry market is projected to grow with a CAGR of 7.07% during the forecast period.

COVID-19 was expected to have a significant impact on the restorative dentistry market owing to the factors such as the closure of dental clinics and the diversion of other healthcare resources for COVID-19 care around the world. For instance, according to a survey study published by the General Dental Council of the United Kingdom in June 2022, about 22% of all respondents in the study reported that they tried to make an appointment since August 2020 but were unsuccessful, and 17% said they had an appointment that was rescheduled or canceled during the previous 12 months. Further, as per the same source, nearly half of the respondents (47%) believed that all dentist offices were open as of October 2021, which was an improvement over August 2020, and around 19% of respondents mentioned all dental offices were open, 25% of respondents in both the 2020 (25%) and 2021 (26%) polls said they were unsure about the status of dental offices. This data shows that the emergence of COVID-19 had a significant impact on dental clinics. Thus, the COVID-19 outbreak affected the market's growth adversely in its preliminary phase; however, the market is expected to gain traction due to the significant increase in the need for restorative dental procedures globally

The factors attributing to the market's growth are rising oral health diseases, dental problems, particularly among youngsters and the elderly, rising awareness regarding dental care and restorative dentistry, rising dental tourism, and the development of advanced technological solutions. The rising oral health disease and dental problems such as dental caries, cavities in the tooth, and missing teeth are the key factors driving the demand for restorative dentistry market. For instance, according to the March 2022 update of the World Health Organization, oral diseases affect approximately 3.5 billion, globally. Also, as per the same source, around 2 billion people are suffering from caries of permanent teeth and 520 million children have caries of primary teeth.

Similarly, according to a research study published in 2021, titled "Prevalence of Dental Caries in the Indian Population: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis," the overall prevalence of dental caries was found to be 54.16%, whereas age-specific prevalence was 62% in patients above 18 years and 52% among 3-18 years of age. Hence, the high burden of oral diseases is expected to increase the demand for restorative dentistry products which is expected to have a significant impact on the growth of the studied market.

Furthermore, the rising dental tourism in the countries is also boosting the market's growth. For instance, according to an article published by Dentaly, in 2021, titled "Dental Tourism 2021: Get Cheaper Dental Implants and Veneers Abroad", dental implant tourism is becoming more popular due to cost savings. in addition to this, it has been observed that all-on-4 implants cost more than USD 15,000 in the United States and are especially popular with patients traveling abroad because they can be fitted considerably more rapidly and with fewer visits than standard implants.

Therefore, owing to the aforementioned factors the studied market is anticipated to witness growth over the analysis period. However, high cost of restorative procedures and treatment is likely to impede the market growth.
