Dental Chair Market Report 2025

The dental chair market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.15 billion in 2024 to $1.22 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to increasing awareness of oral hygiene, the expansion of dental insurance coverage, a rising incidence of dental caries and periodontal diseases, an aging population in need of restorative care, and a growing number of preventive dental checkups.

The dental chair market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.54 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for aesthetic and cosmetic dental treatments, rising disposable income in emerging markets, the expansion of hospital-based dental services, growing demand from pediatric and geriatric populations, and the rise of dental tourism. Key trends expected during this period include the integration of IoT and smart sensors, digitally connected delivery systems, voice-activated controls, wireless instrument integration, and the use of touchscreen and app-based control panels.

The increasing demand for dental procedures is expected to drive the growth of the dental chair market. Dental procedures include a wide range of treatments provided by dentists or dental specialists to preserve or enhance oral health, from routine cleanings to complex surgeries. This demand is rising due to growing awareness of oral health and increased interest in both medical and cosmetic dental treatments. Dental chairs support these procedures by allowing for optimal patient positioning, improving access and efficiency for dental professionals. For example, in October 2024, the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW), a national agency responsible for health data in Australia, reported that over 452,232 dental procedures were performed in hospitals during the 2022-23 financial year, an increase from 421,348 procedures in 2021-22. This indicates a rising need for hospital-based dental services, which is contributing to the expansion of the dental chair market.

Companies in the dental chair market are focusing on developing advanced chairs with digital connectivity to improve procedural efficiency and patient comfort while integrating with diagnostic and imaging technologies.

The fast surge in U.S. tariffs and the trade tensions that followed in spring 2025 are heavily affecting the medical equipment sector, particularly for imported imaging machine components, surgical-grade stainless steel, and plastic disposables. Hospitals and clinics resist price hikes, pressuring manufacturers’ margins. Regulatory hurdles compound the problem, as tariff-related supplier changes often require re-certification of devices, delaying time-to-market. Companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing critical parts, expanding domestic production of commoditized items, and accelerating R&D in cost-efficient materials.
