Hospitals Segment to Lead Dental Radiography Equipment Market During 2021-2028

According to our latest study on "Dental Radiography Equipment Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Global Analysis - by Product and End User," the market is projected to reach US$ 4,242.32 million by 2028 from US$ 2,559.09 million in 2021; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.6% from 2022 to 2028. The report highlights the key factors driving and restraining the market growth, prominent players with their developments in the market, and trends prevailing in the market.

Dental radiology equipment is used for dental imaging to diagnose various dental disorders, dental cavities, and conditions such as tooth decay, gingivitis, and dental caries. These equipment setups are used to capture the images of one's teeth, which are used by dentists to evaluate their oral health. Low radiation levels are employed to capture images of the interior of teeth and gums. The rising prevalence of oral cancer, the growing number of dental practices, and increasing expenditure on dental health drive the market growth. However, the high cost of radiography equipment hampers the growth of the dental radiography equipment market.

Based on end user, the dental radiography equipment market is segmented into dental clinics, hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and others. The hospitals segment held the largest share of the market in 2021. However, the dental clinics segment is anticipated to register the highest CAGR in the market during the forecast period. Hospitals offer dental services such as oral and maxillofacial surgery, root canal, orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, and restorative dentistry. They also offer services for academic purposes. These services are provided for both in-patient and out-patient categories of cases. The growth of the market for the hospital segment is attributed to the increasing prevalence of orthodontic disorders and dental malocclusion, rising awareness of the aesthetic value of a smile, and increasing per capita income. As a result, a large number of hospitals have begun providing dental services worldwide. For instance, Birmingham Dental Hospital offers a unique range of dental services for people, which include restorative dentistry, oral surgery, and orthodontics.

Impact of COVID-19 on Dental Radiography Equipment Market

Diagnostic radiology departments in different hospitals and healthcare centers were restructured to facilitate care for both COVID and non-COVID patients, including patients suffering from acute emergency conditions and all non-elective cases. Ireland had one of the highest infection rates of COVID-19 among healthcare workers (32%) at the start of June 2020. From March 2020, general dental services (GDS) were also restricted in the country. Moreover, patients' visits dropped down by ~60% in 2020 compared to 2019. It affected the demand for dental radiography equipment, which, in turn, hampered the demand for dental radiography equipment. Due to the restricted access to dental services, the number of dental procedures performed fell dramatically. The government of Brazil implemented restrictive measures, due to which the healthcare sector was compelled to introduce modifications in dentistry services. In addition, most of the elective courses in dentistry were suspended or deferred in South Africa. Various constraints were imposed on dental practice during the COVID-19 pandemic, limiting the unmonitored use of intraoral radiography and encouraging different technologies, such as SDPRs and CBCT. However, from June 2020, the rebuilding of dental services commenced in phases, and clinics and other healthcare facilities resumed routine dental care services. Thus, the global dental radiography equipment market is expected to recover significantly during the forecast period.

Zimed Healthcare Ltd; Envista Holdings Corporation; General Electric Co; Carestream Dental LLC.; Dentsply Sirona Inc.; Planmeca; Koninklijke Philips NV; Acteon Group; Siemens Healthcare GmbH; and Vatech Co., Ltd. are among the leading companies operating in the dental radiography equipment market.
