Dental X-ray Market: Future Demand, Market Analysis & Outlook to 2030
The global Dental X-Ray Market size is expected to reach USD 5.3 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to register a CAGR of 8.7% from 2022 to 2030. The increasing prevalence of oral diseases and the rising geriatric population are some of the factors that have led to the growth of the market.
Dental x-ray systems are useful in detecting and recording areas of decay that are undetectable by oral examination, especially minor areas of decay present between teeth. The rising prevalence of periodontitis is also accelerating the demand for these instruments. According to the CDC, 47.2% of adults, over the age of 30 have periodontal disease in the U.S., which is more common in men than women since males are more prone to smoking and other disorders such as diabetes. Early detection of dental disorders such as periodontitis, tooth decay, and tumor or cyst, allows them to be treated while they are still in the early stages, potentially saving money.
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly affected the market for dental X-rays. Due to lockdown and global restrictions being imposed in most of the countries initially, many dental treatments and procedures were halted. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a huge disruption in the supply chain of the overall medical industry. The outbreak had resulted in a decrease in the number of dental procedures performed each year, resulting in an overall decline in the market.
