Dental Caries Treatment Market size was valued at USD 6,301.6 million in 2022 and is poised to grow at a significant CAGR of 4.7% from 2023-2029. Dental caries is a chronic infectious condition resulting from tooth-adherent cariogenic bacteria that metabolize sugars to produce acid, demineralizing the tooth structure over time. Dental caries includes both the condition and lesion that produces a biofilm, which is perpetually active with every pH change in the dental hard tissues. According to Global Burden of Disease 2019, untreated dental caries in permanent teeth is the most common health condition and about 2 billion people suffer from caries of permanent teeth and 514 million children suffer from caries of primary teeth. The growing awareness towards teeth beauty, cosmetic dentistry and awareness about oral hygiene is expected to drive the market. Moreover, the development of cutting-edge dental diagnostic technologies for the detection of pathogens and dental caries endodontics, as well as the increased demand for successful tooth restoration procedures with superior results are expected to fuel the market. The development of new imaging techniques including dental cameras and digital caries detection devices to monitor the progression of caries has opened up huge opportunities for the development of the dental caries market.
According to WHO, dental caries is an expensive disease to treat, consuming 5%–10% of healthcare budgets in industrialized countries, and is among the main reasons for the hospitalization of children in some high-income countries further burgeoning the market. But the COVID-19 pandemic severely declined the market owing to the restrictions issued by countries to eradicate the chances of contracting the virus due to direct exposure during dental treatments. Moreover, the lack of awareness regarding dental caries treatment in underdeveloped economies is a major factor restraining the market. However, increasing awareness among people, extensive R&D in the past decade, increasing competition among the key players, and developed infrastructure and technology have boosted the market. Initiatives taken by governments in several countries have also surged the market. For instance, the Government of India initiated a National Oral Health Programme to provide integrated, comprehensive oral health in different health facilities. The increased prevalence of dental caries, the rise in the number of dental treatments being performed and innovation in dental care products are anticipated to fuel the growth in dental caries treatment in the forecast period.
