Global dental laboratories market was valued at USD 27.5 billion in 2020. It is projected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR of 5.5%) between 2021 and 2028. Market growth is expected to be driven by the increasing demand for cosmetic dentistry procedures and the aging population. The World Bank estimates that the 65-year-old and older population made up nearly 8.4% of the world's population in 2016, and 9.3% by 2020. This will drive the market's growth in the future.
In 2020, the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic was significant. The pandemic had a significant impact on the supply chain in many industries. The pandemic also negatively impacted the market for dental laboratories. The market was severely affected by disruptions in supply chains, shelter-in place mandates and closing of dental clinics in 2020. According to ADA, 75% of dentists shut down their offices in March 2020 for non-emergency patients. ADA and American Dental Hygienists Association research revealed that 3.1% U.S. dental hygienists had COVID-19 by October 2020.
Dental laboratories have seen rapid technological advances, including the use of bone-morphogenic proteins and hydroxyapatite coateds as implant materials. This has led to a shorter chair time, quicker healing, and less pain. Computer-aided Design and Computer-aided Manufacturing (CAM), both advanced imaging tools, have made it easier to plan and handle complicated procedures, as well as 3D scanning of implants, crowns and bridges. This has led to improved patient diagnosis.
Periodontal disease, as well as dental caries, are two of the most common oral diseases in the world. Periodontal disease and dental caries affect more than half of the world's population. Various governments and international organizations such as WHO are taking steps to improve oral health around the world. In 2019, for example, oral health was included as part of the political declaration regarding universal health coverage. With the support of WHO and the UN member states, strategies were developed by the UN to improve oral health in Africa (East Mediterranean), Southeast Asia, Southeast Asia, West Pacific, and Southeast Asia.
A growing number of celebrities and social media users posting beautiful smiles has led to a greater need for aesthetic appeal in dentistry. According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (99.7%), people consider their smile a social asset.

The market has grown because of this high demand. There are many techniques and procedures to meet the needs of patients.
