According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Intraoral Scanners Market is accounted for $0.67 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $1.35 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 12.3% during the forecast period. Intraoral scanners are advanced dental devices that capture detailed digital impressions of a patient's oral cavity. These handheld or desktop devices use optical, laser, or contact technologies to create precise 3D models of teeth and gums. They enhance diagnostic accuracy, streamline treatment planning, and improve patient comfort by eliminating the need for traditional impression materials. Intraoral scanners are commonly used in various dental procedures, including orthodontics, prosthodontics, and restorative treatments.  

According to the ADA Clinical Evaluators (ACE) Panel report published in the August 2021 issue of The Journal of the American Dental Association, 53% of respondents (dentists) reported using an intraoral scanner in their practices.

Market Dynamics:

Driver: 

Growing adoption of digital dentistry

The increasing adoption of digital dentistry is a significant driver for the intraoral scanners market. As dental practices transition from traditional to digital workflows, intraoral scanners become essential tools. These devices offer precise digital impressions, eliminating the need for messy physical molds and improving patient comfort. Digital dentistry enables faster treatment planning, better communication with patients, and more accurate restorations. The integration of intraoral scanners with CAD/CAM systems streamlines the production of dental prosthetics. This shift towards digital solutions enhances overall efficiency, reduces errors, and improves patient outcomes, driving the demand for intraoral scanners in dental practices worldwide.

Restraint:

Integration Challenges

Many dental practices face difficulties in seamlessly incorporating these devices into their existing workflows and systems. Compatibility issues with other dental software and hardware can hinder full utilization of scanner capabilities. Training staff to effectively use new technology and adapt to digital workflows requires time and resources. Some dentists may resist change due to familiarity with traditional methods. Additionally, ensuring data security and compliance with healthcare regulations when implementing digital systems can be complex. These integration hurdles can slow adoption rates and limit the market's growth potential.

Opportunity:

Innovations in scanner technology

Advancements in imaging sensors, software algorithms, and artificial intelligence are enhancing scan accuracy and speed. New scanners offer improved ergonomics, smaller sizes, and wireless capabilities, making them more user-friendly. Integration of augmented reality and real-time 3D modeling allows for immediate treatment visualization. The development of multi-functional scanners that combine intraoral imaging with other diagnostic tools like caries detection expands their utility. These innovations improve the quality of dental care and also open up new applications in orthodontics, implantology, and prosthodontics, potentially expanding the market.

Threat:

High initial costs

The substantial investment required for purchasing these devices, along with associated software and training, can be prohibitive for many dental practices, especially smaller clinics or those in developing regions. The perceived long return on investment period may deter some dentists from transitioning to digital workflows. Additionally, the rapid pace of technological advancements in this field may lead to concerns about equipment obsolescence, further discouraging investment. This cost barrier can limit market penetration and slow growth, particularly in price-sensitive markets, potentially favoring more affordable traditional dental impression methods.

Covid-19 Impact: 

The Covid-19 pandemic initially disrupted the intraoral scanners market due to dental practice closures and reduced patient visits. However, it subsequently accelerated the adoption of digital dentistry solutions. Intraoral scanners gained popularity as they minimize physical contact and aerosol generation compared to traditional impression methods. The pandemic highlighted the importance of infection control in dental settings, boosting the appeal of touchless, digital workflows. As practices reopened, there was increased investment in digital technologies to enhance efficiency and safety.

The orthodontics segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The orthodontics segment is anticipated to dominate the intraoral scanners market due to the growing demand for aesthetic dental treatments and the increasing prevalence of malocclusion. Intraoral scanners are particularly valuable in orthodontics for creating precise digital models of patients' teeth, enabling accurate treatment planning and custom appliance fabrication. Additionally, the integration of intraoral scanners with orthodontic software streamlines workflow, reduces treatment time, and improves overall efficiency in orthodontic practices, driving significant adoption in this segment.

The confocal microscopy segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The confocal microscopy segment in intraoral scanners is projected to experience the highest growth rate due to its superior imaging capabilities. Confocal technology offers enhanced depth of field and accuracy, crucial for capturing detailed dental structures. This technology excels at producing high-resolution 3D images without the need for powder application, improving patient comfort and scan efficiency. The ability to capture clear images of both hard and soft tissues makes confocal scanners versatile for various dental applications. As demand for precise digital impressions grows, particularly in complex restorative and implant cases, the adoption of confocal microscopy-based scanners is expected to accelerate, driving innovation and market expansion in this segment.

Region with largest share:

North America is expected to dominate the intraoral scanners market during the forecast period due to its advanced healthcare infrastructure and high adoption rate of dental technologies. The region boasts a large number of dental practices and a strong focus on preventive and cosmetic dentistry. High healthcare expenditures and favorable reimbursement policies support the adoption of advanced dental equipment. Additionally, increasing awareness among patients about the benefits of digital dentistry and a growing elderly population requiring dental care further drive the demand for intraoral scanners in North America.

Region with highest CAGR:

The Asia Pacific region is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR in the intraoral scanners market during the forecast period. This rapid growth is attributed to several factors, including increasing disposable incomes, growing awareness of oral health, and expanding dental tourism in countries like India and Thailand. The region's large population base and rising prevalence of dental disorders create substantial market opportunity. Government initiatives to improve healthcare infrastructure and the gradual adoption of digital dentistry in emerging economies contribute to market expansion.
