The global dental sterilization market size was estimated to be USD 1.63 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 3.50 billion by 2034 with a CAGR of 7.21% during the forecast period 2024-2034. The increasing number of dental facilities and rising pool of dental care personnel, growing prevalence of dental ailments, increasing demand for cosmetic dentistry, technological advancements, and growing awareness of infection control will drive the market growth.
The expanding population and increased knowledge of oral hygiene are driving up demand for dental services. As a result, the dental care sector is expanding, necessitating the demand for more dental facilities and dental care staff. The need for dental sterilizing equipment and supplies grows in tandem with the number of dental facilities and workers. For instance, the 3M Company launched the 3MTM AttestTM Rapid Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) Bioluminescent System in December 2023.
By product, the consumables and accessories segment accounted for the highest revenue-grossing segment in the global dental sterilization market in 2023 owing to the growing demand for single-use and disposable sterilization products, such as sterilization pouches, wraps, indicators, and instrument cleaning solutions. For instance, in November 2023, Belimed AG received FDA 510(k) approval for their new Belimed C99 sterilizer, which is designed for quick and effective sterilization of dental tools. Additionally, the low-temperature sterilizers segment is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the rising demand for advanced sterilization methods compatible with heat-sensitive dental instruments and equipment.
By type, the steam sterilization segment accounted for the highest revenue-grossing segment in the global dental sterilization market in 2023 owing to the ubiquitous use of autoclaves and the well-established reliability of steam sterilization in dental settings. For instance, in October 2023, Getinge Group announced the acquisition of Tristel Solutions AG, a Swiss business specializing in hydrogen peroxide-based disinfection technology. Additionally, the unsaturated chemical vapor sterilization segment is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the increasing demand for sterilization methods compatible with heat-sensitive and moisture-sensitive dental instruments and materials.
By method, the chemical methods segment accounted for the highest revenue-grossing segment in the global dental sterilization market in 2023 owing to the increased focus on versatility and compatibility with various dental instruments and materials, coupled with the growing demand for efficient and rapid sterilization solutions. For instance, in September 2023, STERIS plc launched the ServiceVantageTM digital platform, which gives real-time data and insights about sterilization equipment performance. Additionally, the physical methods segment is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the rising demand for environmentally friendly and energy-efficient sterilization solutions, coupled with advancements in technologies such as radiation and filtration.
By end-user, the dental hospitals and clinics segment accounted for the highest revenue-grossing segment in the global dental sterilization market in 2023 owing to the escalating number of dental procedures performed in these healthcare settings and their commitment to maintaining stringent infection control standards. For instance, Dentsply Sirona Inc. partnered with Matachana Group in August 2023 to market its dental sterilization equipment throughout North America. Additionally, the dental academic and research institutes segment is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the increased emphasis on research and education, driving the demand for cutting-edge dental sterilization technologies and training facilities.
North American region is anticipated for the highest revenue share during the forecast period owing to the well-established healthcare infrastructure, a robust dental care system, and a heightened focus on infection control and patient safety. Additionally, the Asia Pacific region is predicted to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the increasing prevalence of dental disorders, a rising population with greater access to dental care, and expanding healthcare infrastructure. For instance, in July 2023, Midmark Corporation introduced the Midmark M9 Autoclave, a high-capacity sterilizer with quick cycle times and enhanced efficiency for busy dental clinics.
This comprehensive research report focuses on the global and regional market size and forecasts from 2023 to 2034.
