The market is segmented by revenue stream (endodontics, cosmetic dentistry, prosthodontics, orthodontics, and others)
The endodontics segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period. The endodontics segment includes either keeping some or all of the pulp intact or removing the entire pulp in case of irreversible disease. In addition, this comprises teeth with irreversibly inflamed and infected pulp tissue. Furthermore, this segment includes not only treatment in the presence of pulp but also preservation of teeth unresponsive to non-surgical endodontics or with new lesions, for example, when re-root treatment is required or periradicular surgery.

The endodontics segment was the largest segment and was valued at USD 36.12 billion in 2018. Moreover, endodontic treatment is one of the most common procedures. For instance, when the dental pulp (including nerves, arteries, veins, lymph node tissue, and connective tissue) becomes diseased or damaged, endodontics is necessary to save the tooth. In addition, factors such as the increasing adoption of endodontic devices in the country are positively impacting the growth of this segment. Furthermore, improved healthcare infrastructure and government-led programs for dentists in the country have increased the number of skilled dentists in the US and are fuelling the growth of this segment. Hence, such factors are expected to fuel the growth of this segment which in turn drives the market growth during the forecast period.

There are multiple factors influencing market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges.
The growing prominence of teledentistry is a key factor driving market growth. There has been a noticeable rise in the prominence of teledentistry in recent years, particularly accentuated by the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The implementation of strict social distancing guidelines during the pandemic led to the closure of these services in many states. The profession was identified as one of the riskiest environments for the spread of the coronavirus, according to The New York Times in March 2020. Consequently, a significant number of team members experienced layoffs or drastic reductions in their working hours, resulting in instability within the industry.
However, the challenges posed by the pandemic fueled the adoption of telehealth solutions in both medical and these fields across the US. Leveraging existing platforms, IT teams swiftly transformed these platforms into dental telecare systems, enabling supported offices to offer these services. This innovative approach has not only ensured continuity in dental care delivery but has also positively impacted the market by providing accessible preventive and restorative care to patients, despite the limitations imposed by the pandemic.
A key factor shaping the market growth is the increasing adoption of advanced dental procedures. There has been a growing adoption of advanced procedures across the US over the years. In addition, factors such as the advances in these procedures such as 3D printing, computer-aided design/computer-aided management (CAD/CAM) technology, and laser dentistry have contributed to the growth of the market in the US.
For instance, as per the Journal of the American Dental Association, the inexpensive and precise workflow of additive 3D printing can increase the accuracy of clinical dentistry in both academic and private offices. In addition, in the past, the clinics had to hire a third party to fulfill multiple requests. Furthermore, many dental chain clinics can now handle their 3D printing needs in-house or through cheaper channels. Hence, such factors are positively impacting the market which in turn drives the market growth during the forecast period.
Lack of reimbursements is one of the key challenges hindering the market growth. Several surgeons do not perform these procedures that are not covered by health insurance. In addition, due to inadequate reimbursements and the high cost of implantation procedures, patients prefer alternative treatments such as bridges and dentures.
For example, the cost of an implantation procedure with tooth restoration can range from USD 6,500 to USD 11,000, whereas the amount reimbursed by the insurance providers can vary between the range of USD 1,500 and USD 2,500. Therefore, the lack of reimbursements has increased the out-of-pocket expenditure for patients, which is negatively impacting the market. Hence, such factors are expected to hinder the market growth during the forecast period.
