Endodontic Devices Market Demand Analysis by Type (Instruments, Consumables), End Use (Dental Hospitals, Dental Clinics, Dental Academic and Research Institutes) - Forecast to 2030

Market Overview

The global endodontic devices market was valued at $1,492.0 million in 2021, and it will advance at a CAGR of 4.8% during 2021–2030, to reach $2,283.4 million by 2030. The industry growth is primarily attributed to the increasing prevalence of dental infections. The rise in dental tourism activities is also expected to drive the progress of the market in the forecast period.

Instruments Hold Largest Share in Market

The instruments category leads the industry, and it is expected to generate revenue of $1,206.7 million in 2030, owing to the developments in delivery systems, which have provided multiple benefits to dentists, such as easy handling and maneuvering of handpieces during surgeries. These delivery systems are now available as over-the-head, rear, side, and over-the-patient variants. Over-the-patient systems permit free-flow movement around a patient’s head during operations, thus enabling their easy maneuvering for an improved field vision.

The consumables category, in the type segment, is expected to have a significant share as well. The major factors that influence the success of an endodontic treatment are the diagnosis, doctors’ understanding of the tooth anatomy and debridement, efficient treatment plans, and effectiveness of obturation. Multiple obturation systems are now available for root canal procedures. The increase in the usage of innovative dental guidance systems is allowing dentists to provide treatments that are far more effective than those provided using traditional systems.

Access Preparation To Witness Fastest Growth

The access preparation category of the consumables division is expected to record the fastest growth in the endodontic devices market outlook, advancing at a CAGR of 5.5%, during 2021–2030. These consumables are witnessing increasing sales due to the rise of guided endodontics, which provides better feasibility, predictability, and safety for locating canals at the time of surgery. The technological improvements in the field have allowed for better navigation, thus enabling dentists to provide safer and more-reliable surgeries.

The rising requirement for customized endodontic devices has led to the adoption of the CAD methodology. Additionally, the adoption of cone-beam CT systems allows dentists to create 3D images of the teeth, nerve paths, and the attached bones in a single scan. This advanced X-ray system allows dental professionals to better prepare for the treatment.

The obturation category is expected to advance at a significant rate as well, on account of the increase in dental care expenditure, a proliferation of tooth decay cases, and the development of innovative obturation devices.

In the same vein, the shaping and cleaning category is projected to progress during this decade due to the technological improvements, especially visible in the development of suitable combinations of irrigation equipment and other instruments. The objective of these tools is to optimize root canal disinfection and prevent reinfection, and they are also used for dental scaling and polishing dental equipment.

Endodontic Motors Holds Largest Share in Market

The endodontic motors category leads the endodontic devices market globally, as these motors allow for a swift and much-safer way to perform root canal surgeries. The growing requirement for nickel–titanium (NiTi) instruments is due to their versatility and the super elasticity they provide, while preserving the apical foramen of the original anatomy.

Electric motor dental units are used for polishing, drilling, or both at the same time, using an ultrasonic scaler. They provide high torque, enabling optimal trimming and cutting efficiency. Moreover, electric motors are relatively inexpensive compared to air-driven units and are also compact and mobile.

Moreover, apex locators are likely to have a significant share of the market in the forecast period. The category is driven by the increasing number of dental care facilities, increasing occurrence of periodontal diseases, growing dental tourism, and raising awareness about oral hygiene. Apex locators are used by dentists to determine the position and depth of a root canal system, which assists in successful treatment planning. Modern electronic apex locators provide accurate location of the apical major foramen. As per reports, these advanced devices have an accuracy of over 90% in determining lengths.

Moreover, sixth-generation variants provide graphic data on color multimedia displays, being adaptive devices. In just a thousandth of a second after the penetration of the apex tip, precise measurements and determination of the canal moistness can be performed.

The endodontic scalers category is projected to also have a modest share in instrument sales, owing to the increasing requirement for minimally invasive dental treatments. Amongst the different types of scalers, such as sonic, ultrasonic, piezoelectric, and manual, dentists prefer ultrasonic ones due to their multiple tip alternatives and ease of use. Moreover, with these devices, which create minimal handpiece vibrations, hand fatigue can be eliminated. They also prove to be more efficient in breaking down calculus formations than mechanical scalers, thus driving the endodontic devices market growth in the next few years.

North America Holds Largest Share in Market

The North American market, the largest across the world, is projected to generate revenue of $898.0 million in 2030, registering a CAGR of 4.6% from 2021 to 2030. Some major factors fueling this growth are the rising population, increasing investments in dentistry R&D, rising preference for root canal treatments over implants, and proliferation of dental clinics and experts.

Technologically advanced tools, such as ultrasonic equipment, consist of multiple tip variants based on shape, composition, and length. Moreover, ultrasonic equipment can help control the frequency and amplitude of the vibrations of the tip in use. For instance, Kerr Corporation manufactures microsurgical ultrasonic tips that are diamond-coated and designed for endodontic microsurgery, along with a wide range of specialty tips.

Europe is expected to have a modest endodontic devices market size in the forecast period. The key contributors to the region’s progress are the increasing number of root canal, filling, and implantation procedures and the attached dental care expenditure. Thus, Dentsply Sirona, which has an established presence in oral hygiene products, especially in the U.K., France, Germany, and Sweden, has about 40% of its revenue coming from the European region.

Most countries in the European region are developed and open to adopting technologically advanced equipment for healthcare. Moreover, the availability of experienced practitioners, a high number of health facilities, and high disposable income are likely to be the key drivers for the industry growth in the next few years.
