Restorative Dentistry Market Size (2023 to 2028)

As per our analysis report, the global restorative dentistry market is expected to reach USD 23.66 billion by 2028 from USD 17.55 billion in 2023, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.55% during the forecast period.

Restorative dentistry is a part of dental science that involves the treatment of missing or damaged teeth and improves oral health. Some of the common restorative dentistry processes are implants, crowns, root canals, fillings, bridges, and cavity fillings. The rising cases of dental diseases like tooth decay, periodontal disorders, and tooth loss are the primary factors for the growth of the global restorative dentistry market. Also, the exponential growth in elderly people across the world is registering several teeth-related diseases, which is another factor driving the demand for this business. In addition, with the recent changes in consumer lifestyles, awareness about oral hygiene has increased. The rising emphasis on aesthetics to improve smiles and facial features is also boosting the restorative dentistry market.

Also, the recent advancements in the dental industry, like 3D printing, CAD models, and digital imaging, further promote the global market. Besides, the preference of patients towards non-invasive treatments coupled with extended insurance options is supporting the global restorative dentistry market. With the increasing globalization, the healthcare sector exploded and medical tourism has become a new norm for patients. Also, the latest trend of social media videos and promotions is indirectly pushing consumers to opt for dental treatments to enhance facial beauty. Further, the trend of customized treatment according to consumer preferences is impacting the market positively for restorative dentistry. In addition, the extensive research activities for the development of biodegradable materials to be used in dental procedures will favor the market boom in the foreseen period. Moreover, the continuous developments in dental science, along with partnerships among healthcare facilities and research centers, are touted to create immense growth opportunities for the global restorative dentistry market.

The major constraint to the restorative dentistry market is the cost-sensitive areas where a few sections of the population cannot afford restorative treatments like implants and fillings. Although insurance coverage is slowly extending to these treatments, there are still a lot of gaps to be filled, acting as a challenge for the rapid movement in this business. In addition, the strict government regulations and compliances related to the manufacturing of dental products are pulling some of the companies down. Also, the lack of highly skilled professionals to undertake dental procedures and the lack of proper awareness about oral treatments in Asian and African countries is a concerning area for growth of the restorative dentistry market. Besides, the issues related to compatibility, the time involved for the treatment and recovery, and patient concerns due to societal aspects are acting negatively for this business. Furthermore, the continuous innovations in dentistry are leading to regular investments to be updated in the marketplace, which is affecting smaller practitioners to integrate and understand the new technologies.

Impact of COVID-19 on the restorative dentistry market:

The COVID-19 pandemic had an initial negative impact on the global restorative dentistry market. The lockdown restrictions resulted in supply chain disruptions, leading to the shortage of raw materials and delay in the production of the applications used for the treatments. The shutdown of companies led to the halt of research and development activities and a pause in the approval of several new products. In addition, the decreased budget and expenditures have affected the studies related to restorative dentistry applications. Also, the temporary shutdowns and contactless conditions constrained the clinical visits and direct patient procedures. Besides, there was a huge delay in approvals for several new applications and trials due to the focus on controlling the spread of the pandemic. On the other hand, the COVID-19 pandemic improved emphasis on the need for advanced healthcare infrastructure and increased investments in new innovations, which will act as an opportunity for the restorative dentistry market in the days ahead. Moreover, the increase in remote consulting led to new ways of treatments like tele-dentistry and virtual follow-ups. Also, the spike in working-from-home conditions during the pandemic allowed more people to explore the benefits of dental care.
