The digital orthodontics market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.04%, reaching a market size of US$6,827.87 million in 2030 from US$4,232.21 million in 2025.
Digital Orthodontics is leveraging traditional orthodontics in digital ways. The approach entails the facilitation of aesthetic braces for adults and children in a much quicker and more accurate way through the use of new technologies in orthodontics. It also helps orthodontists in digitalizing treatment and formulating and executing the treatment plan. In recent times, these digital dental treatments have shown improvement and helped dentists deal with patients in a much shorter timeframe. Digital orthodontics allows orthodontists to take in-house measurements around clear aligners, wires, and retainers via intra-oral digital appliances. The CAD/CAM methodologies and technologies have gradually found their way to orthodontic practices due to the use of the technologies in making individualized wires and plastic trays for patients.
Moreover, emerging trends of adoption and increasing application of digital tools are likely to boost the growth in the digital orthodontics industry. In addition, the growth of available digital orthodontic solutions companies is adding to the attractiveness of the already existing market. Increasing competition and emerging market opportunities are expected to boost the digital orthodontics market growth. Besides, shorter turn-around time, cost, and convenience of digital orthodontics are forecasted to increase demand.
What are the digital orthodontics market drivers?
- Rising use of AI and ML is contributing to the digital orthodontics market growth
Integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) has enabled medical practitioners to improve treatment planning processes and outcomes. There is also a growing trend in the markets towards the application of digital devices in diagnosis and treatment, including the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning. AI is progressing rapidly in orthodontic treatment procedures due to the evolution of intelligence and the development of corresponding technologies. This leads to the creation of accurate 3-D models of a patient’s dentition with the help of AI and ML tools through scans, X-rays, and other relevant data, dramatically increasing the probability of successful treatment.
Moreover, the increase in demand for model-generation practices that are more efficient and accurate is facilitating the wide-scale adoption of AI and ML technologies in orthodontia. In addition, there has been a global increase in expenditure on digital technologies and 3D-printed tailor-made invisible aligner braces.
- Rising prevalence of dental malocclusion is anticipated to boost the digital orthodontics market
Malocclusion means dislocation of the teeth or an incorrect position of the jaws. In orthodontics, devices such as braces and aligners are routinely employed to treat malocclusion by applying a gentle force on the teeth. Dental malocclusion is a type of abnormality that more or less constitutes a separate morphological variation that does not relate to other diseases and pathological states.
One of the major factors contributing to the global orthodontics industry’s expansion is the increasing incidence of dental malocclusion worldwide. More specifically, it is also seen in individuals with genetic disorders such as osteogenesis imperfecta, which causes bone fragility and tooth malformations. Therefore, it is anticipated that the rising number of patients suffering from dental malocclusion due to osteogenesis imperfecta will spur the need for orthodontics treatment.
- Growing number of adult and geriatric patients will increase the demand
In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the number of adults seeking treatment in all geographical regions. The primary reason is that many individuals are now in treatment for malocclusions, as they appreciate the importance of oral health and dental aestheticism. Accordingly, there is an increasing number of users of teeth aligners worldwide. Moreover, the treatment options were more enticing to adults due to the introduction of technology to align the teeth. Most adults have also taken the correction of teeth with the availability of less visible options like ceramic braces, lingual braces, and clear aligners. These options are less conspicuous than traditional metal brackets yet yield the same outcomes. Hence, it can be presumed that the market will grow due to increasing awareness, technological improvements, and a more cosmetic aspect.
Major challenges hindering the digital orthodontics market:
- High cost of orthodontics is anticipated to hamper the market growth
Several aspects, such as the high costs associated with therapy and the adverse effects, are anticipated to hamper this global market’s expansion. This is in contrast to the increasing need for treatment owing to the rise in the prevalence of dental disorders such as malocclusion. Moreover, the treatment is expected to be a limiting factor to the market due to its expensive nature and the lengthy time taken during the treatment. The number of patients undergoing such treatments is limited by its price.
Additionally, several researches concerning prolonged treatment have shown that it will be associated with certain adverse effects such as temporomandibular complications, irritation of gums, high levels of decalcification, dental caries, and resorption of roots. Other long-lasting side effects of the immune response, such as hypersensitivity reactions, are also responsible for inhibiting market growth.
Geographical outlook of the digital orthodontics market:
- North America is witnessing exponential growth during the forecast period
During the forecast period, the North American region is expected to hold a significant market share. The rising adoption of advanced technological solutions in the region, like oral scanners, 3D printing, etc., is projected to fuel the digital orthodontics market growth. Moreover, the rising investments in the region and the entry of several new market players and start-ups are predicted to further propel the market during the assessed period. Furthermore, Asia Pacific is also projected to grow rapidly due to the increasing need for digital orthodontics solutions in developing nations such as India and China.
Key developments in the digital orthodontics market:
- In July 2024, Clear aligners have transformed orthodontics by providing a discreet alternative to traditional fixed appliances. Recent developments have greatly improved their effectiveness, comfort, and customization, making them an appealing option for patients looking for a cosmetically pleasing procedure.
- In August 2023, LightForce Orthodontics opened a second digital factory and raised USD 80.0 million in series D funding led by Ally Bridge Group. The business uses AI models to create personalized 3D-printed braces.
