An online virtual dental service is a platform that allows patients to receive dental care remotely via the internet. These services usually include video consultations with licensed dentists, enabling patients to obtain professional advice, diagnoses, treatment plans, and follow-up care without needing to visit a dental office.
The primary types of online virtual dental services are video conferencing, photo-based, and telephone connections. Video conferencing is a technology that facilitates real-time audio and visual communication between participants in different locations through the internet. It employs technologies such as mobile apps, web-based platforms, wearable devices, AI-based diagnostics, and cloud-managed dental records. This service is used for various purposes, including emergency dental care and cosmetic treatments, and is utilized by patients, dental clinics, hospitals, and other healthcare providers.

The online virtual dental service market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.27 billion in 2024 to $3.90 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.1%. The growth during the historical period can be attributed to a rising demand for convenient dental care, increasing acceptance of digital healthcare services, greater health awareness among millennials and Gen Z, urbanization, time-limited lifestyles, and an expanding aging population.
The online virtual dental service market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.75 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.7%. The projected growth in the forecast period is driven by factors such as rising cosmetic dental concerns, growing awareness of oral hygiene, a shift towards preventive dental care, a rise in independent virtual dental practitioners, and the expansion of dental insurance coverage for telehealth services. Key trends in the forecast period include the advancement of AI and machine learning in diagnostics, improvements in teledentistry platforms, the development of secure video conferencing tools, integration with electronic health records, and the use of cloud computing for managing patient data.
The increasing demand for preventive dental care is expected to drive the growth of the online virtual dental service market in the coming years. Preventive dental care includes regular practices and treatments focused on maintaining oral health and preventing dental diseases. The demand for such care is rising due to growing awareness about the connection between oral health and overall well-being, prompting more people to seek early interventions to avoid serious health issues. This shift toward preventive care supports the use of online virtual dental services by encouraging individuals to use remote consultations for routine check-ups and oral hygiene guidance, reducing the need for in-person visits while ensuring continuous dental care. For example, in May 2024, the Delta Dental Institute, a US-based non-profit, reported that over 83% of adults sought preventive dental care in 2023, an increase from 78% in the previous year. As a result, the growing demand for preventive care is expected to boost the online virtual dental service market.
Leading companies in the online virtual dental service sector are focusing on advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI) for diagnostic photo analysis, to enhance diagnostic precision, personalize treatment plans, and improve access to timely dental care remotely. AI for diagnostic photo analysis involves using algorithms to analyze images of a patient's mouth or teeth to identify potential dental issues and assist in early, accurate diagnoses. In June 2023, Virtual Dental Care Inc., a US-based teledentistry solutions provider, launched Dental.com, an advanced virtual dental platform offering preventive, diagnostic, and problem-focused consultations. This platform uniquely integrates AI for photo-based diagnostics, enabling personalized treatment recommendations and improving access to affordable dental care from home.
In April 2022, Quip, a US-based oral health company, acquired Toothpic, a provider of virtual dental care, for an undisclosed amount.

This move enhances the accessibility of oral care in underserved urban and rural areas. Toothpic is based in Ireland and provides online virtual dental services.
