by Dental caries, commonly known as cavities or tooth decay, is the most prevalent disease that affects humans worldwide. It occurs due to demineralization of tooth enamel and dentin by exposure to organic acids produced by plaque bacteria when fermenting dietary carbohydrates. The various treatment options available for dental caries include restorative fillings, root canal treatment, crowns, dental surgery, and dental prostheses. The global dental caries treatment market is dominated by restorative dental fillings made of materials such as silver amalgam, composite resin, glass ionomer cement, and resin-modified glass ionomer cement. These restorative fillings are used to replace tooth structures lost due to cavitation.
The global dental caries treatment market is estimated to be valued at US$ 6921.73 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 14% over the forecast period from 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market Dynamics
Advancing dental restoration technology is one of the key drivers expected to flourish the global dental caries treatment market over the forecast period. There have been significant advancements in restorative dental materials such as nanohybrid composite resins, fiber-reinforced composite resins, and polyacid-modified resin composites that offer better aesthetics, strength, longevity and minimal intervention of healthy tooth structure. These advanced restorative materials mimic the appearance of natural teeth more closely, thereby driving their increased adoption. Moreover, new 3D printing technologies are enabling fabrication of dental restorations with precision-fit and lifelike properties directly from digital impressions and scans. The introduction of chair-side CAD/CAM restorative systems would further enhance the adoption of new generation restorative materials.
