by The dental turbine is a compact handpiece used in dental practices for various restorative procedures like cavity preparation, composite filling, and tooth restoration. It functions with high air pressure and functions with a foot pedal switch to start and stop the rotation of the bur. Dental turbines are lightweight, ergonomic equipment equipped with contra-angled head design for enhanced access and visibility. Popular applications of dental turbines include cavity preparation and removal of decayed tooth structure, finishing and polishing of dental restorations such as fillings, crowns and veneers.
The global dental turbine market is estimated to be valued at US$ 115.9 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 24% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market Dynamics:
Increasing prevalence of dental diseases and rising demand for aesthetic and cosmetic dentistry are some of the major factors propelling demand for dental turbines for procedures like cavity preparation and tooth restoration. According to FDI World Dental Federation, approximately 3.5 billion people worldwide suffer from oral diseases, with untreated dental caries being one of the most prevalent chronic diseases. As per data from National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, dental caries remain the most common chronic disease among children in the U.S. Furthermore, surge in edentulism rates due to rising incidence of periodontal (gum) disease is creating demand for dental prosthetic procedures like dental implants and bridges, boosting adoption of dental turbines. Additionally, rising consumer expenditure on dental care and awareness regarding oral health and hygiene is anticipated to drive dental turbine market growth over the forecast period.
Segment Analysis
The global dental turbine market is dominated by the general turbine subsegment, which accounts for over 70% share due to its lower cost and ease of operation. General turbines are the most common type prescribed for general dental procedures involving high-speed cutting or stripping of tooth structure like cavities, fillings, and crowns preparation. The low-speed turbine subsegment holds around 25% share and is typically used for procedures like polishing, smoothing, and cleaning which require high torque at low RPMs to avoid damage to tissues.
PEST Analysis
Political: Regulations regarding dental equipment vary across countries and states. Measures to enable reimbursements for dental treatments can boost the market.
Economic: Rising disposable incomes in developing nations are enabling people to spend more on dental healthcare. Growth in the older population requiring dental implants and prosthetics also supports the market.
Social: Increasing awareness about oral health and aesthetics is driving people to undergo routine dental checkups and treatments. The demand for advanced procedures like teeth whitening is gaining traction.
Technological: Manufacturers are focusing on innovations like compact turbine designs, improved ergonomics, better torque and speed control features to offer enhanced precision and patient comfort. Integration of piezoelectric ultrasonic scalers is also seeing increased adoption.
Key Takeaways
Global Dental Turbine Market Growth is expected to witness high growth on account of the aging population requiring dental implants and other procedures, rising oral healthcare expenditure, and technological innovations. The global dental turbine market is estimated to be valued at US$ 115.9 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 24% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030.
Regional analysis
The Asia Pacific region dominates the global dental turbine market and is expected to grow at the fastest pace during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the large population base in countries like China and India which is increasingly seeking dental care owing to rising incomes. China represents the largest country market in the region.
