United States Dental Devices Market Size & Share Analysis - Growth Trends & Forecasts (2024 - 2029)

USA Dental Equipment Market Analysis

The USA Dental Equipment Market size is estimated at USD 5.31 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 7.18 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 6.22% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

Oral diseases are highly prevalent in the United States. Smoking, poor oral hygiene, diabetes, medication, age, hereditary, and stress are major causes of the rising number of oral disorders. These disorders pose a significant health burden in the country and affect people throughout their lifetime, causing pain, discomfort, disfigurement, and even death. Therefore, there is increased consciousness regarding oral health among the population. This is anticipated to increase dental care needs, boosting market growth over the forecast period.

Tooth decay is the most common chronic disorder in adults and children in the United States; it fuels the demand for dental devices in the country, contributing to market growth. For instance, according to data published by the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research in April 2022, tooth decay affected 90% of adults in the United States aged 20 to 64, and gum disease affected almost 50% of adults aged 45 to 64. Thus, the significant burden of tooth decay and gum diseases among adults raises the demand for dental devices used during dental procedures, such as dental crowns, bridges, implants, and others, and is likely to drive market growth in the country.

According to the data published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in December 2023, more than 40% of adults reported pain in their mouth in 2022, and more than 80% of people had at least one cavity at age 34 in the United States. Hence, the high prevalence of oral diseases among the population is expected to increase the demand for dental procedures, which is anticipated to augment the growth of the market over the forecast period.

Additionally, dental professionals employ minimally invasive surgery and cosmetic dentistry to reduce trauma and enhance quicker healing and recovery among patients for better outcomes. Thus, the rising adoption of minimally invasive dental surgeries associated with cosmetic dentistry, the growing desire to look beautiful, and short treatment durations are factors accelerating market growth. For instance, the article published in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) in November 2023 stated that minimally invasive techniques in restorative dentistry emerged as an essential approach to preserve natural tooth structure, achieve optimal treatment outcomes, and improve patient satisfaction. Additionally, minimally invasive techniques minimize patient discomfort during treatment and promote faster recovery. Thus, the increased adoption of minimally invasive techniques due to their benefits is projected to boost cosmetic dentistry, driving market growth over the forecast period.

Also, technological advancements in dentistry and the presence of key market players in the United States are expected to drive the market. For instance, in February 2024, Mid America Dental Sales launched an innovative X-ray device, the X4 Handheld, developed with a carbon nanotube (CNT) X-ray tube to promote efficiency and streamline procedures compared to the standard filament vacuum X-ray tubes. It features a protective scatter shield with 0.5 Pb to protect dental professionals. Such launches of dental devices by market players are projected to boost market growth.

In February 2023, SprintRay Inc. launched Ceramic Crown 3D Printing Ecosystem, a new generation of single-appointment workflows that changed how restorative care is delivered to patients. The system enables complete end-to-end definitive chairside crown fabrication in less than 45 minutes, offering real financial and time-saving advantages to patients and providers. The implementation of this next-generation technology significantly improved accessibility and safety for patients, thereby influencing market growth.

Therefore, the market is expected to record significant growth over the forecast period due to the increasing burden of oral diseases, the growing adoption of minimally invasive surgeries, and strategic product launches by the key players. However, excessive costs involved in private health insurance and negligence toward oral health may slow its growth over the forecast period.
