Report ID: MRHC - 104677 Pages: 293 Apr-2023 Formats*: PDF Category: Healthcare Delivery: 2 to 4 Hours Download Free Sample ReportThe growing prevalence of oral diseases, the rising demand for cosmetic dental procedures, growing medical tourism for dental procedures, and the growing adoption of clear aligners drive the growth of the dental consumables market.
However, the high cost of dental procedures restrains the growth of this market. Emerging economies are expected to offer growth opportunities for the players operating in this market. However, inadequate attention to oral health is a major challenge for the growth of the global dental consumables market.
In recent times, concern over one’s appearance in their personal and professional life has grown for both adults and children. Patients, when thinking about correcting their misaligned teeth, are showing reluctance to use metal braces and wires. But in the last few decades, dentistry has been revolutionized and now offers a number of options, such as clear aligners, to be used for the correction of misaligned teeth. Aesthetics and appearance is a major concern among patients who take orthodontic treatment.
Due to the increasing demand for aesthetic alternatives to conventional braces, researchers and dental product manufacturers have innovated several solutions, such as composite braces, ceramic, lingual orthodontics, and clear aligners. The demand for clear aligners is increasing daily due to patients' concern over their appearance wearing traditional orthodontic appliances.
Dental tourism is growing rapidly due to the increasing demand for cosmetic dentistry, lower costs of simple and complex dental procedures in developing countries, and people’s desire to experience their preferred holiday destinations. The growth in medical tourism is largely observed in low-to-middle-income countries, mainly due to the low cost of dental procedures, including endodontics and dental implants. Countries in Asia-Pacific are preferred for most medical procedures, including complex dental procedures that are significantly costlier in developed countries such as the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. For instance, dental implantation costs around USD 3,500 (value implants) to USD 15,000 (premium implants) in the U.S., excluding the cost of abutment, crown, and tooth and root extraction procedures. In contrast, the cost of dental implantation in major APAC countries ranges from USD 800 to USD 1,000. Moreover, patients can receive similar or even better treatments in many APAC countries. Similarly, developing economies in Latin America, such as Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia, are also major hotspots for dental tourism due to the low costs of dental procedures.
Oral diseases are a significant health burden across many countries, affecting nearly 3.5 billion people around the world. According to Global Burden of Disease 2019, untreated dental caries in permanent teeth is the most common dental condition globally. Dental caries is among the most common health concerns in developing countries, affecting 60%—90% of school children and most adults. Similarly, Periodontal diseases are prevalent both in developed and developing countries, with the prevalence increasing from 14% of the global population in 2019 to 19% in 2022 (Source: WHO), leading to the adoption of periodontic procedures.
Additionally, risk factors such as smoking, poor oral hygiene, medication, age, heredity, stress, and diabetes have been linked to periodontal diseases. For instance, people with diabetes are at a higher risk of periodontal diseases, an infection of the gums, tissues, and bones that hold the teeth in place. Diabetes also slows down the healing process, hampering treatments. Diabetes can also cause dry mouth and fungal infections. A dry mouth may lead to ulcers, infections, and tooth decay. Increased blood glucose levels can also increase sugar levels in saliva, wherein bacteria can metabolize sugar, resulting in acid formation, which leads to tooth decay. The increasing prevalence of dental diseases and chronic conditions, which lead to the degradation of dental health, is expected to drive the dental consumables market globally.
Dental treatments and procedures are expensive. Some people are reluctant to undergo dental procedures due to painful experiences; however, many avoid them due to their high costs. Dentistry requires extremely skilled practitioners. The best dentists are expensive as they charge for their experience, output, results, and superior services. However, most dental professionals are highly trained, making dental treatments expensive.
Basic equipment and materials used in dental procedures, including dental chairs, X-ray machines, surgical tools, materials, and medicaments, further contribute to the high costs of dental treatments. Moreover, dental procedures, including endodontics and dental implants, have little to no insurance coverage under health plans, and reimbursement rates are also low, which makes complex dental procedures expensive and unaffordable. Thus, the high costs prevent people from undergoing complex dental procedures, limiting the adoption of dental products and restraining the growth of the dental consumables market.

Based on type, the orthodontics segment is further divided into removable braces, brackets, archwires, anchorage appliances, and ligatures. The segment's large share is attributed to the high prevalence of malocclusion, the increasing adoption of digital technologies for orthodontic treatments, the growing popularity of clear aligners, and the growing demand for cosmetic dentistry.
Newly developed invisible braces or clear aligners are gaining more traction as they are practically invisible and provide an aesthetic look. These braces are made from clear plastic trays which fix on the teeth. They use gentle pressure to shift the teeth to the correct position (treating malocclusion). Various factors, such as genetics, can cause malocclusion and thumb-sucking in children, negatively impacting an individual’s oral health and self-esteem.
Increasing adoption of technologies such as CAD/CAM by dental practitioners, consolidation of dental clinics, and adoption of new dental technologies by dental professionals are the driving factors of the dental clinics & hospitals segment. Companies are focused on acquiring dental clinics and dental service chains. For instance, in November 2021, EC Healthcare (China) acquired 55% of Bayley & Jackson Dental Surgeons Limited (China), including a chain of seven dental clinics.
Moreover, using the latest technologies, such as artificial intelligence, smart toothbrushes, augmented reality, virtual reality, teledentistry, 3D printing and computer-assisted design, intra-oral camera, regenerative dentistry, and CRISPR, has contributed to the segment’s growth. Adoption of the new dental technology helps ease complex dental procedures and provides comfort and desired results to the patients. Thus, the technological developments and increasing adoption of dental products by patients drive the segment’s growth.
Based on geography, in 2023, North America is expected to dominate the dental consumables market with a share of 34%, while Asia-Pacific is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The factors driving the growth of the dental consumables market in Asia-Pacific are the increasing prevalence of oral diseases, rising awareness regarding oral health, growing geriatric population, growth in medical tourism, initiatives by governments and organizations for improving dental health, the growing number of practicing dentists and increasing expenditure on dental services.
Dental tourism has increased in the Asia-Pacific region, mainly in South Korea, due to the rising number of state-of-the-art clinics offering affordable treatments. The growth in South Korea’s dental tourism is also attributed to the lower costs of dental procedures compared to other developed countries, such as the U.S., and the Hallyu effect (popularity of Korean pop culture). Dental treatments and procedures are available at lower costs in South Korea compared to other western developed countries.
