Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is a specialized imaging technique wherein a cone-shaped tomographic beam revolves around a patient's head, capturing focused images of a specific body area, commonly employed in dental scans. This technology is instrumental in treatment planning for orthodontic and dental implant procedures.
Various patient positions are integral to the cone beam computed tomography process, including standing, seated, and supine orientations. The standing position in a CBCT scanner is a precise method of placing the patient during imaging, applicable across diverse applications such as dental implantology, oral and maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics, endodontics, general dentistry, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, periodontics, forensic dentistry, among others. The utilization of CBCT spans across multiple end-users, including hospitals, dental clinics, and other healthcare facilities.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp increase in U.S. tariffs and resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the medical equipment sector, especially for imported components used in imaging machines, surgical-grade stainless steel, and disposable plastics. With hospitals and clinics pushing back against price increases, manufacturers are facing margin pressure. The situation is further complicated by regulatory challenges, as switching suppliers due to tariffs often necessitates re-certification of medical devices, leading to delays in market entry. In response, companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing key components, ramping up domestic production of standardized items, and accelerating research into more cost-effective materials.
The cone beam computed tomography market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides cone beam computed tomography market statistics, including cone beam computed tomography industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a cone beam computed tomography market share, detailed cone beam computed tomography market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the cone beam computed tomography industry. This cone beam computed tomography market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The cone beam computed tomography market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.33 billion in 2024 to $1.47 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to expansion of dental and maxillofacial surgeries, minimally invasive procedures, insurance coverage expansion, increasing prevalence of dental disorders, rising geriatric population.
The cone beam computed tomography market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.32 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing applications in non-dental fields, rising global healthcare expenditure, emergence of portable CBCT devices, growing adoption in veterinary medicine, focus on precision medicine. Major trends in the forecast period include integration with CAD/CAM systems, mage-guided interventions, technological advancements, technological innovations in CBCT systems, 3d imaging in dentistry.
The forecast of 12.1% growth over the next five years indicates a slight reduction of 0.1% from the previous estimate for this market.This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US through tariffs on flat-panel detectors and cephalometric positioning lasers, sourced from key regions such as China and Israel, which could lead to reduced dental and ear, nose, and throat (ENT) imaging capabilities and higher costs for maxillofacial procedures.The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The anticipated growth in the cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) market is expected to be propelled by the increasing prevalence of dental disorders. Dental disorders encompass a range of oral conditions affecting oral health, including gum disease, tooth erosion, and cavities. These conditions not only cause pain and discomfort but also have the potential to limit one's ability to eat and impact self-esteem. CBCT plays a crucial role in detecting dental problems before they escalate, enhancing the capacity of endodontists to identify, assess, and treat patients. In March 2023, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported that globally, almost 3.5 billion individuals were affected by oral diseases, with approximately 10 percent facing severe periodontal gum disease and 2.3 billion having dental caries in their permanent teeth. The prevalence of dental disorders, including primary tooth decay in children (520 million worldwide), is a significant driver for the growth of the CBCT market.
The increase in healthcare expenditures is projected to drive the growth of the cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) market in the future. Healthcare expenditures encompass all costs related to delivering health services, family planning activities, nutrition programs, and emergency health assistance. The demand for CBCT is fueled by its precise imaging capabilities, which facilitate accurate diagnostics, effective treatment planning, and reduced procedural complications, ultimately optimizing overall healthcare costs. For example, in December 2022, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, a US federal agency, reported that US healthcare spending rose by 4.1% to reach $4.5 trillion in 2022, outpacing the 3.2% increase recorded in 2021. Thus, the rise in healthcare expenditures is a key factor driving the growth of the cone beam computed tomography market.
Leading companies in the cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) market are prioritizing the development of advanced imaging solutions to boost diagnostic accuracy, enhance patient outcomes, and address the shifting needs of the healthcare sector. For example, in March 2022, Align Technology Inc., a U.S.-based orthodontics company, introduced an updated Invisalign system that incorporates CBCT data into its ClinCheck digital treatment planning software. This new capability enables orthodontists to generate a detailed three-dimensional model displaying a patient's roots, bones, and crowns, significantly improving treatment planning for a variety of malocclusions. This integration empowers doctors to broaden their diagnostic reach and customize treatment plans for a wide range of cases, including ortho-restorative needs, impacted teeth, and adolescent orthodontics.
Major companies operating in the CBCT market are strategically focused on the development of advanced imaging solutions to elevate diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes, aligning with evolving healthcare demands. A case in point is Carestream Dental, a US-based provider of digital imaging, software, and practice management solutions, which launched the Neo Edition of the CS 8200 3D Family in April 2022. This evolution incorporates an optional Scan Ceph module, enhancing usability, contributing to a superior clinical experience, and resulting in improved patient outcomes. The initiative expands Carestream Dental's array of extraoral imaging technology solutions, reflecting a commitment to advanced imaging technologies.
In April 2022, Envista Holdings Corporation, a US-based dental equipment and supplies manufacturing company, acquired Carestream Dental's intraoral scanner business. This strategic move aims to broaden Envista's portfolio of intraoral scanners and software, focusing on the fastest-growing categories in the dental market and driving unique solutions through the digitization of dental workflows. Carestream Dental, the acquired company, is known for its CBCT systems and dental imaging solutions, aligning with the overall industry trend toward innovative digitized dental technologies.
