The dental 3D scanners market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $0.85 billion in 2025 to $0.93 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing adoption of digital dentistry practices, growth in restorative and cosmetic dentistry, expansion of dental laboratories, rising demand for precise dental prosthetics, technological improvements in optical scanning.
The dental 3D scanners market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.26 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing investments in fully digital dental clinics, rising demand for same-day restorations, expansion of teledentistry solutions, growing use of ai-assisted scan analysis, increasing adoption in emerging dental markets. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of chairside intraoral scanners, rising integration with cad/cam workflows, growing demand for high-accuracy digital impressions, expansion of wireless and portable scanner designs, enhanced focus on faster scan processing.
The rising prevalence of oral diseases is expected to drive the growth of the dental 3D scanners market in the coming years. Oral diseases encompass a wide range of conditions that affect the mouth, teeth, and orofacial structures. The increasing occurrence of oral diseases is attributed to factors such as unhealthy dietary habits, tobacco consumption, inadequate oral hygiene practices, and a growing aging population. Dental 3D scanners support early diagnosis and accurate treatment planning for oral diseases by delivering precise measurements and detailed anatomical insights. For example, in April 2025, according to the Mint Dental Centre, a UK-based intergovernmental organization, the proportion of people in the UK living with gum disease is projected to increase from 42% of the population currently to 54% by 2050. Consequently, the increasing prevalence of oral diseases is contributing to the growth of the dental 3D scanners market.
Key players in the dental 3D scanners sector are directing their efforts towards introducing innovative products such as AI-guided scans to augment their market revenue. AI-guided scans offer a plethora of advantages including enhanced accuracy and precision, expedited scanning processes, superior dental imaging quality, and heightened patient comfort. For instance, in June 2023, Dental Monitoring SAS unveiled ScanAssist123, an AI-guided scan tailored for orthodontic applications. This technology leverages AI-guided instructions and real-time feedback to facilitate patients through their scanning procedures, making the experience interactive and enjoyable. The in-app system generates a dynamic 3D model of the oral cavity, accompanying patients during the scan process to ensure the acquisition of high-quality images and thorough analysis of treatment progress and oral health. ScanAssist represents a pioneering feature within the DentalMonitoring app, harnessing software and AI capabilities to identify over 130 intraoral observations pertinent to braces and aligner treatments.
In October 2023, Straumann Group, a Switzerland-based provider of dental equipment and solutions, acquired AlliedStar, a China-based intraoral scanner manufacturer, for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition aims to support Straumann in expanding its footprint in the dental 3D scanner market and reinforcing its position in the field of digital dentistry. AlliedStar focuses on the development of advanced intraoral scanning technologies for dental clinics and laboratories.

Dental 3D scanners represent cutting-edge imaging equipment within the dental industry, offering intricate three-dimensional renderings of dental anatomy, encompassing teeth, gums, and adjacent tissues. Leveraging state-of-the-art technologies such as lasers or structured light, these scanners generate accurate digital replicas, pivotal for diverse dental functions including diagnosis, treatment strategizing, and the production of dental prosthetics such as crowns, bridges, and implants.
The primary classifications of dental 3D scanners encompass 3D dental light scanners and 3D dental laser scanners. A 3D dental light scanner operates through structured light technology, facilitating the capture of highly accurate three-dimensional representations of dental components, including teeth and gums. This method involves projecting light patterns onto surfaces and gauging their alterations. Such scanners find application across various sectors, including medical contexts, with end users spanning hospitals, dental clinics, dental laboratories, as well as academic and research establishments.
The dental 3D scanners market consists of sales of tray-based scanners, scanning tips, calibration tools, and protective covers. Values in this market are ‘factory gate’ values, that is the value of goods sold by the manufacturers or creators of the goods, whether to other entities (including downstream manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and retailers) or directly to end customers. The value of goods in this market includes related services sold by the creators of the goods.
The market value is defined as the revenues that enterprises gain from the sale of goods and/or services within the specified market and geography through sales, grants, or donations in terms of the currency (in USD unless otherwise specified).
The revenues for a specified geography are consumption values that are revenues generated by organizations in the specified geography within the market, irrespective of where they are produced. It does not include revenues from resales along the supply chain, either further along the supply chain or as part of other products.
