Refurbished Dental Equipment and Maintenance Market Report 2025

The refurbished dental equipment and maintenance market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $0.76 billion in 2024 to $0.83 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the increasing number of small and independent dental practices, the rise in oral health screening programs, growth in dental education, increased sales of refurbished digital diagnostic tools, and growing demand for mobile dental clinics.

The refurbished dental equipment and maintenance market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.15 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5%. The growth expected in the forecast period can be attributed to the expanding geriatric population, rising healthcare expenditures, increasing adoption of refurbished medical devices, growth in the number of dental clinics, and rising dental tourism. Key trends during this period include advancements in refurbishment technology, enhanced sterilization and hygiene integration, innovations in digital dental equipment, incorporation of AI in dental diagnostics, and progress in sustainable packaging and logistics.

The increasing prevalence of dental diseases is anticipated to drive the growth of the refurbished dental equipment and maintenance market in the future. Dental diseases affect the teeth, gums, and surrounding oral tissues, including conditions like tooth decay and gum disease. This rise in dental diseases is mainly due to higher consumption of sugary and processed foods, which contribute to plaque buildup and acid production, causing tooth decay and gum issues. Refurbished dental equipment and maintenance services support managing dental diseases by offering affordable access to crucial diagnostic and treatment tools, thereby improving care delivery and patient outcomes. For example, in March 2023, the British Dental Association, a UK-based trade union for dentists, reported that dental decay affected 35.1% of 5-year-olds in more deprived areas compared to 13.5% in more affluent areas in 2022, highlighting a disparity of over 21.6% in oral health. Consequently, the rise in dental disease prevalence is boosting the refurbished dental equipment and maintenance market.

Increasing healthcare expenditures are expected to fuel the growth of the refurbished dental equipment and maintenance market moving forward. Healthcare expenditure includes spending on medical services, healthcare products, and public health programs within a country or region. Rising healthcare costs are driven by the growing burden of chronic diseases, which require ongoing treatment, diagnostics, and monitoring, thereby increasing overall expenses. The rise in healthcare spending encourages the adoption of cost-effective solutions, leading dental clinics to invest in refurbished equipment and maintenance services to balance budgets while maintaining high care standards. For instance, in April 2025, the American Medical Association, a US-based professional association, noted that health spending in the U.S. increased by 7.5% to reach $4.9 trillion in 2023, or $14,570 per person, marking a significant rise compared to the 4.6% growth recorded in 2022. Thus, rising healthcare expenditures are driving the refurbished dental equipment and maintenance market.

Leading companies in the refurbished dental equipment and maintenance market are developing innovative initiatives such as smart start programs to improve customer onboarding, ensure equipment performs optimally from the start, and provide thorough training and support for smooth integration into dental practices. Smart start programs are structured onboarding solutions that help dental practices effectively set up and operate refurbished equipment through expert guidance and training. For example, in February 2024, A-dec Inc., a US-based dental equipment manufacturer, launched a certified pre-owned equipment program that allows dental practices to purchase certified, refurbished A-dec products through authorized dealers. This program involves a stringent multi-point inspection and refurbishment process conducted by A-dec technicians, replacing worn parts with new genuine components to guarantee quality and reliability. Each certified unit includes brand-new upholstery in various color options and comes with a three-year parts warranty along with full access to A-dec’s customer service and support.

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.
