Robotic Dentistry Market to reach USD 1,329.5 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 18.3%

The Robotic Dentistry Market is expected to grow from USD 410 million in 2023-e a CAGR of 18.3% to touch USD 1,329.5 billion by 2030. Robotic dentistry is set to transform the landscape of oral healthcare by combining state-of-the-art robotics and artificial intelligence. This integration aims to improve precision, efficiency, and patient comfort. The collaboration between robotic systems and dental professionals will streamline complex procedures such as tooth extractions, implant placements, and orthodontic adjustments.

Real-time assessments from AI-powered diagnostic tools will enhance treatment planning accuracy, while robotic assistants will handle chairside tasks, minimizing the risk of human error and fatigue. Patients can expect elevated experiences with reduced discomfort and shorter treatment durations. The integration of teledentistry with robotic capabilities will extend oral care accessibility to remote areas. However, to ensure the safe and responsible integration of robotics in dental practice, regulatory and ethical considerations must evolve alongside technological advancements.

Standalone robot is anticipated to experience the highest CAGR from 2024 to 2030 in the field of robotic dentistry. This surge is propelled by the integration of cutting-edge technologies, offering patients enhanced precision and reduced time consumption. The standalone robot proves invaluable in minimally invasive surgeries, ensuring precise implant placements, particularly in various dental applications.

Dental hospitals and clinics emerged as the dominant segment, capturing the largest share of the robotic dentistry market. This is attributed to the widespread adoption of robotic dentistry practices in these settings. Moreover, the rise in oral diseases and dental tourism has further fuelled the market growth.

Asia-Pacific is poised to be the growing market for robotic dentistry during the forecast period. The market growth is attributed to factors such as the expanding elderly population. An article published by the Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific titled ‘Recognize the reality of a rapidly aging Asia-Pacific region and revitalize the role of older persons in society, urges UN forum’ states that the Asia-Pacific population is aging faster than any other region in the world. Currently, there are 630 million individuals aged 60 years or older, constituting 60% of the global older population. Projections suggest that by the year 2050, this demographic is expected to grow to 1.3 billion people.

Moreover, a surge in dental tourism, an increase in the number of dental professionals, a rising incidence of dental diseases, and an upswing in the number of implant procedures are driving the growth of the APAC region.

Robotic dentistry market is characterized by the presence of various small and big players. The major market players include 3Shape, Align Technology, Beijing Baihui Weikang Technology, Dentsply Sirona, Envista Holdings, Intutuive Surgical, Image Navigation, Neocis, Planmeca, Zimmer Biomet, amongst others.  

Robotic dentistry is a competitive market with the major market players embracing advanced technologies to enhance their market share and bolster their competitive stance through strategic initiatives, including mergers, acquisitions, and the introduction of new products. For instance, in March 2023, Planmeca introduced new AI-based tools for Planmeca Romexis, which is recognized as a powerful software platform in dentistry. This platform encompasses a wide array of tools for dental imaging, diagnosis, and treatment planning across various indications and dental specialties.
