Dental Sterilization Market Analysis

The Dental Sterilization Market size is estimated at USD 1.67 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 2.32 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 6.81% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has had a significant impact on the healthcare system, particularly dental care. Dentistry is considered to be linked to the nosocomial spread of infection due to certain characteristics of dental care, such as aerosol generation and proximity to patients. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the increased risk of cross-infection among dentists, nurses, and patients made it challenging to prevent and control. Thus, the COVID-19 outbreak affected the market's growth adversely in its preliminary phase; however, the market is expected to gain traction due to the significant increase in the practice of dental services which require proper setrilization globally.

The growing prevalence of dental ailments (edentulism, dental caries, and other periodontal diseases), the increasing demand for cosmetics dentistry, the increasing number of dental surgeries, and the increasing risks of cross-transmission are the prime factors responsible for the growth of the dental sterilization market. As per a March 2022 update by the World Health Organization (WHO), it is estimated that oral diseases affect nearly 3.5 billion people worldwide and severe periodontal (gum) disease, which may result in tooth loss, is also very common, with almost 10% of the global population affected. In dentistry, it is very important to have an effective and efficient way of controlling any type of infection to ensure the patient's wellbeing. This will lead to increased adoption of dental sterilization devices, thereby expected to drive the growth of the studied market.

Moreover, following guidelines for the prevention of cross-transmission are common practice in many countries. Various infection control programs are initiated for this purpose that is increasing awareness about the cleaning and sterilization of dental devices and instruments. For instance, in January 2022, the Dental Assisting National Board (DANB) collaborated with Organization for Safety, Asepsis and Prevention (OSAP) to develop two new dental infection control certifications: the Certified in Dental Infection Prevention and Control (CDIPC) certification and the Dental Industry Specialist in Infection Prevention and ControlTM (DISIPCTM) certification. Therefore, increased consumer demand for dental sterilization equipment is anticipated to fuel the market's expansion. This is due to increased awareness of dental sterilization procedures.

Therefore, owing to the aforementioned factors the studied market is anticipated to witness growth over the analysis period. However, stricter regulations on dental devices is likely to impede the market growth.
