The increasing number of dental practitioners in developed countries is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as the high costs of dental braces and procedures may impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The increasing number of dental practitioners in developed countries is one of the key drivers supporting the dental braces market growth. In developing and underdeveloped countries, the number of dental practitioners is not many. The need for specialized dentists and orthodontists in the market is increasing owing to the growing prevalence of orthodontic disorders. Cosmetic dentistry is a growing trend in the market. This field is booming in the dental industry.
Many people in developed countries are adopting cosmetic dentistry for aesthetics. With the growing number of dentists, this demand can be fulfilled. This will increase orthodontic procedures, which will propel the need for dental braces in the market during the forecast period.
Increasing adoption of orthodontic treatments in emerging markets is one of the key dental braces market trends contributing to the market growth. The global dental braces market is experiencing significant growth, largely driven by the increasing adoption of orthodontic treatments in emerging markets. This trend is expected to continue in the coming years, fueled by several factors. One of the primary drivers of this trend is rising disposable income levels in developing economies, which are enabling more people to afford orthodontic treatments. Additionally, the increasing prevalence of dental malocclusions and jaw disorders, particularly in younger populations, is driving demand for orthodontic solutions.
Another key factor contributing to the growth of the dental braces market is the availability of advanced and innovative products. Companies are investing in research and development to create more comfortable, efficient, and aesthetically pleasing braces. These new products are attracting a wider range of patients who may have previously been hesitant to undergo treatment. Overall, the dental braces market is expected to continue to grow as emerging markets increasingly adopt orthodontic treatments, which will drive the growth of the market in the forecast period.
High costs of dental braces and procedures are one of the factors impeding the dental braces market growth. The market is growing at a steady pace. However, the growth of the market is facing challenges because of the high costs associated with dental braces and procedures, especially in price-sensitive markets and developing economies. The price of orthodontic braces differs based on their type, length, and the alignment problem of an individual.
The average cost of dental clinic visits for a general dental check-up and orthodontic and periodontics procedures ranges between USD 250 and USD 1,500. Thus, the high cost of dental procedures and braces together can limit dental visits. This could hinder the market growth during the forecast period.
The market report includes the adoption lifecycle of the market, covering from the innovator’s stage to the laggard’s stage. It focuses on adoption rates in different regions based on penetration. Furthermore, the report also includes key purchase criteria and drivers of price sensitivity to help companies evaluate and develop their growth strategies.

The market share growth by the ceramic braces segment will be significant during the forecast period. Fixed dental braces are the traditional type of braces that use brackets, wires, and bands to straighten teeth and correct bite issues. These braces are attached to the teeth using dental cement and are not removable until the treatment is complete. Fixed dental braces are typically made of metal, but there are also ceramic and lingual options available.

The ceramic braces segment was valued at USD 1.34 billion in 2017 and continued to grow until 2021. Ceramic braces are less noticeable than metal braces as they blend in with the natural color of the teeth, while lingual braces are attached to the back of the teeth, making them virtually invisible from the front. Fixed dental braces are suitable for treating a wide range of orthodontic problems, including crowded teeth, gaps, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Treatment time varies depending on the complexity of the case, but it typically takes around 18-24 months to achieve the desired results. The demand for fixed dental braces is expected to continue to grow in the forecast period due to the increasing prevalence of orthodontic problems, growing awareness about the benefits of orthodontic treatment, and advancements in orthodontic technology.

North America is estimated to contribute 42% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period. Countries such as the US and Canada in North America have good quality medical and healthcare facilities. These countries are involved in improving their healthcare facilities, which also include dental care clinics and spaces. The demand for oral health check-ups is rising because of the rising cases of orthodontic and periodontal conditions. This is contributing to the growth of the dental braces market in North America. Moreover, the increased federal funding for dental programs is likely a contributing factor to the regional dental braces market growth in the forecasted period. The US federal aid for Medicare & Medicaid is anticipated to propel the demand for oral care services as patients are likely to pay less out-of-pocket expenses.
In addition, the presence of private dental insurance companies, which provide insurance for Invisalign, is bolstering the demand for removable dental braces in the region. Delta Dental, a dental insurance company based out of the US, provides different orthodontic plans, such as DeltaCare USA, Delta Dental PPOTM, and Delta Dental Premier. These plans cover post-treatment retainers costs and Invisalign costs. Such favorable factors will attract many customers. This would expand the customer base for orthodontic treatment and braces.
The outbreak of COVID-19 adversely affected all countries in North America, especially the US, in 2020. However, after the lockdowns were relaxed due to the availability of COVID-19 vaccines and the vaccination drives carried out by the governments of different countries in North America, dental clinics and hospitals reopened, adhering to the COVID-19 guidelines, which increased the demand for dental braces during the forecast period. The government also helped in the dental operations in the region. Thus, the dental braces market in North America will register growth during the forecast period.
