According to a new market research published by Meticulous Research®, the dental 3D printing market is projected to reach $13.4 billion by 2030, at a whopping CAGR of 20.9% from 2023 to 2030.
3D printing has made significant advancements in the dental and medical fields. The growth of this market is driven by the increasing adoption of 3D printing in dentistry, technological advancements, and the rising prevalence of dental diseases. In addition, the rising adoption of CAD/CAM technology and increased use of resins for dental 3D printing offer opportunities for the growth of this market. However, the relatively high costs of 3D printers are hindering the growth of this market.
Based on end user, the dental 3D printing market is segmented into dental laboratories, dental hospitals and clinics, and academic and research institutes. In 2023, the dental laboratories segment is expected to account for the largest share of the dental 3D printing market. The high adoption of technologically advanced instruments in dental laboratories, high demand for dental prosthetics due to cosmetic dentistry, and cost-effectiveness ensured by dental laboratories in manufacturing dental products contribute to this segment's large market share.
In 2023, North America accounts for the largest share of the dental 3D printing market. However, Asia-Pacific is projected to register the highest CAGR over the forecast period.
