Dental 3D printing involves the use of 3D printing technology to create dental devices and restorations. This technology is used to produce highly accurate crowns, bridges, and orthodontic devices by converting digital dental scans into customized physical models. This process reduces turnaround time and enhances patient outcomes.
The main categories in dental 3D printing include equipment, materials, and services. Equipment refers to the tools, machines, or materials required to perform a specific task. These solutions are applied across various technology types such as vat photopolymerization, selective laser sintering, and others, with uses in orthodontics, prosthodontics, and implantology. They are adopted by a wide range of end users, including dental laboratories, dental clinics, hospitals, and academic and research institutions.
Tariffs are influencing the dental 3D printing market by increasing costs of imported printers, photopolymer resins, metal powders, scanning equipment, and post-processing systems. Dental laboratories and clinics in North America and Europe are most affected due to reliance on imported additive manufacturing technologies, while Asia-Pacific faces pricing pressures on exported equipment. These tariffs are raising upfront investment costs and slowing adoption among smaller practices. However, they are also encouraging regional manufacturing, localized material production, and innovation in cost-optimized dental 3D printing solutions.
The dental 3D printing market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides dental 3D printing market statistics, including dental 3D printing industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a dental 3D printing market share, detailed dental 3D printing market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the dental 3D printing industry. This dental 3D printing 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 dental 3D printing market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $3.57 billion in 2025 to $4.31 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing demand for cosmetic dentistry, expansion of dental laboratory digitization, rising adoption of cad/cam technologies, availability of digital dental scanners, growth in restorative dental procedures.
The dental 3D printing market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $9.04 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing penetration of digital dentistry, rising investments in dental technology infrastructure, growing demand for personalized dental devices, expansion of in-house printing at clinics, continuous material innovation in dental printing. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of chairside 3D printing solutions, rising demand for customized dental restorations, growing use of advanced dental printing materials, expansion of digital workflow integration, enhanced focus on rapid turnaround times.
The increasing prevalence of dental disorders is expected to drive the growth of the dental 3D printing devices market in the coming years. Dental disorders encompass a range of conditions that affect the health, function, or structure of the teeth and surrounding oral tissues. The rise in dental disorders is largely attributed to poor dietary habits, particularly high consumption of sugar and acidic foods, which contribute to tooth decay and gum disease. Dental 3D printing devices help address these disorders by enabling the rapid, precise, and cost-effective production of customized dental solutions such as crowns, bridges, aligners, dentures, and surgical guides, thereby improving treatment accuracy and patient outcomes. For example, in January 2024, according to a report published by the American Cancer Society, a US-based nonprofit cancer advocacy organization, an estimated 58,450 adults in the United States-41,510 men and 16,940 women-were projected to be diagnosed with oral or oropharyngeal cancer in 2024, up from 54,000 adults in 2022. Therefore, the rising prevalence of dental disorders is driving the growth of the dental 3D printing devices market.
Major players in the dental 3D printing market are focusing on developing advanced multi-material 3D-printed denture solutions to improve precision, enhance durability, and broaden the range of customized dental options. Multi-material 3D-printed denture solutions involve using multiple materials that are simultaneously jetted and cured layer by layer to create a single, monolithic denture. For example, in February 2024, 3D Systems Inc., a US-based provider of 3D printing solutions, introduced its Nextdent Jetted Denture Solution. This advanced 3D-printed denture combines increased durability (with break-resistant gum materials and wear-resistant teeth) and natural aesthetics (featuring rigid, stain-resistant teeth and lifeincluding gum textures). The solution enhances patient comfort and satisfaction while streamlining the production process for dental labs. This integrated workflow allows for high-volume output with fewer manual steps, quicker turnaround times, and lower operational costs.
In April 2024, Ivoclar Group, a Liechtenstein-based manufacturer known for its high-quality dental solutions, partnered with SprintRay to advance dental 3D printing technologies. This collaboration aims to integrate Ivoclar's advanced dental materials into SprintRay's 3D printing solutions. By doing so, the partnership seeks to improve the digital fabrication of dental restorations and optimize dental workflows. SprintRay is a US-based 3D printing technology company specializing in dental applications.
