Digital Dentistry Global Market Report 2026

Digital dentistry encompasses the utilization of digital technologies and devices to conduct dental procedures, replacing traditional mechanical or electrical tools. This includes a wide array of advanced techniques and equipment aimed at enhancing efficiency, precision, and patient care within dental practices.

The primary categories of solutions in digital dentistry are instruments and consumables. Instruments in digital dentistry comprise tools and equipment utilized for various dental procedures, such as scanners, milling machines, and 3D printers. These instruments enable dentists to accurately capture digital impressions, design restorations, and fabricate dental prosthetics with exceptional precision. Digital dentistry solutions are applied across specialty areas such as orthodontics, prosthodontics, implantology, and others, facilitating diagnostics, therapeutics, and other dental applications. These solutions are utilized by end-users such as hospitals, dental clinics, and other dental care facilities.

Tariffs are impacting the digital dentistry market by increasing the cost of imported digital imaging equipment, CAD/CAM systems, and 3D printing hardware. These impacts are most pronounced across instruments such as intraoral scanners and digital X-ray systems, particularly in regions dependent on cross-border manufacturing such as Asia-Pacific and Europe. Higher tariffs have moderately raised procurement costs for dental clinics and hospitals. At the same time, tariffs are encouraging local manufacturing, regional assembly, and supplier diversification, supporting long-term supply chain resilience.

This digital dentistry 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 digital dentistry market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $6.79 billion in 2025 to $7.57 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in dental care procedures, increasing demand for accurate diagnostics, expansion of private dental clinics, rising awareness of advanced dental treatments, improved accessibility to dental technologies.

The digital dentistry market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $11.15 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing demand for efficient dental workflows, increasing patient expectations for precision treatments, expansion of cosmetic and implant dentistry, rising investments in digital healthcare infrastructure, increasing adoption of technology-driven dental solutions. Major trends in the forecast period include growing adoption of intraoral scanners, rising use of CAD/CAM-based restorations, increasing preference for chairside digital workflows, shift toward fully digital treatment planning, rising integration of 3D printing in dental practices.

The growth of the digital dentistry market is expected to be driven by the increasing prevalence of dental disorders. Dental disorders encompass various conditions affecting teeth, gums, and oral structures, including cavities, gum disease, tooth decay, and oral infections. These disorders result from factors such as poor oral hygiene, unhealthy dietary habits, tobacco use, limited access to dental care, and aging populations. Digital dentistry is revolutionizing the diagnosis and treatment of dental disorders through technologies such as computer-aided design or computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems, digital imaging, and artificial intelligence (AI) diagnostics, improving precision and treatment outcomes. For example, in October 2024, according to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, an Australia-based government agency, there were approximately 87,400 hospitalizations for dental conditions in 2022-23 that could have been prevented with timely treatment. Children aged 5-9 years had the highest rate of preventable hospitalizations, at 12.3 per 1,000 population. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of dental disorders is driving the growth of the digital dentistry market

Key players in the digital dentistry market are concentrating on integrating artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies into diagnostic products, such as AI-guided orthodontic scans, to enhance treatment precision, efficiency, and early detection capabilities. AI-guided orthodontic scans leverage artificial intelligence to conduct precise scans of patients' teeth, aiding in treatment planning and customization. For instance, DentalMonitoring introduced an AI-guided scan for orthodontics called ScanAssist in June 2023. This device utilizes AI-guided instructions and real-time feedback to assist patients in completing their scans, aiming to improve patient engagement and experience. ScanAssist generates a 3D mouth model and tracks patients' scans, providing high-quality images and detailed analysis of treatment progress and oral health. This feature employs software and AI to identify over 130 intraoral observations for braces and aligner treatments.

In September 2023, Straumann Group acquired AlliedStar to enter the Chinese scanner market with a competitive and cost-effective scanner solution. AlliedStar, a China-based provider of dental digital equipment and software, complements Straumann's strategic goals in expanding its digital dentistry offerings.
