Dental Restorative Materials Global Market Report 2025

The dental restorative materials market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.87 billion in 2024 to $3.04 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1%. The growth during the historical period can be attributed to factors such as an aging global population, a rising middle class, increased urbanization, greater awareness of oral hygiene, and the expansion of dental insurance coverage.

The dental restorative materials market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.82 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period is driven by changing dietary habits, rising smoking rates, government initiatives promoting oral health, increased consumption of processed foods, and the expansion of dental clinics. Key trends expected during this period include the integration of CAD and CAM systems for more precise restorations, advancements in adhesive technologies, the development of bioactive materials, the use of nanotechnology in dental materials, and the integration of artificial intelligence in diagnostics.

The growing prevalence of dental disorders is expected to drive the expansion of the dental restorative materials market in the coming years. Dental disorders include conditions such as tooth decay, periodontal disease, and tooth loss, which require restorative treatments to restore both oral function and aesthetics. The rise in these disorders is largely due to poor oral hygiene habits, leading to plaque buildup and bacterial growth, which increases the likelihood of cavities and other dental problems. As a result, there is a growing demand for restorative materials to address and manage dental damage. For example, in November 2022, the World Health Organization reported that approximately 389,846 new cases and 188,438 deaths occurred worldwide in 2022 due to cancers affecting the lip and oral cavity. Thus, the increasing prevalence of dental disorders will continue to fuel the growth of the dental restorative materials market.

Key companies in the dental restorative materials market are focusing on advancing technologies such as flexible splints to enhance patient comfort and improve clinical efficiency. Flexible splints are dental devices made from flexible materials that temporarily stabilize loose or injured teeth while allowing slight movement for healing. For instance, in November 2023, Dentsply Sirona, a US-based dental products manufacturer, launched the Primeprint Splint ST and Primeprint Splint SF, 3D printing resins. The Primeprint Solution offers an automated 3D printing system that reduces manual steps, including extensive polishing, while delivering high-quality, shiny results post-curing and easy support removal. The Primeprint Material Unit Type S improves workflow efficiency with application-specific printing processes. These resins support thin-wall printing (as small as 0.8 mm) and come in various hardness and flexibility levels to suit clinical needs. Additionally, the resins are free from MMA, THF-MA, and TPO2, offering a neutral taste and scent to enhance patient comfort.

In December 2022, Lifco AB, a Swedish holding company, acquired Doxa Dental AB for an undisclosed sum. Following the acquisition, Doxa Dental was integrated into Lifco's dental division in the first quarter of 2023. After the sale, Doxa Dental shifted its focus primarily to property operations. Doxa Dental AB is a Swedish manufacturer of dental restorative materials.

Dental restorative materials are substances used in dentistry to repair or replace damaged tooth structure, restore functionality, and maintain oral health. These materials are specifically designed to replicate the natural appearance and mechanical properties of teeth, offering durability, biocompatibility, and resistance to oral challenges such as temperature fluctuations and bacterial activity.

The primary products in dental restorative materials include amalgam, resin-based composites, glass ionomer, resin-modified glass ionomer, and porcelain-fused-to-metal. Amalgam is a durable dental filling material composed of a blend of copper, tin, silver, and mercury. It is utilized for both direct and indirect restorations and is commonly applied in prosthodontics, periodontics, endodontics, and other fields. Various end-users, including hospitals, dental clinics, and laboratories, make use of these materials.
