According to a recent market study. The market was valued at US$2,970.35 million in 2019 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.2% from 2020 to 2027. The report provides insights into the current market trends, drivers and challenges of the dental X-ray market.
Leading companies in the dental X-ray market include Dentsply Sirona, Envista Holdings Corporation, Planmeca Oy, Carestream Health Inc., Air Techniques Inc., Apteryx Imaging Inc, Vatech, The Yoshida Dental Mfg. Co. Ltd, Midmark Corporation, and Cefla s.c.
Advances in dentistry have driven the need for more precise diagnostic tools, particularly imaging methods. The dental imaging industry has evolved from simple intra-oral periapical X-rays to advanced techniques like CT and cone beam CT, which now play a crucial role in modern dentistry.
Market players are focused on introducing innovative solutions to maintain their position in the competitive global imaging industry. For instance, in January 2019, ORCA Dental AI and Planmeca Oy partnered to bring AI-enabled products to the market, which allow for quick teeth segmentation and structure identification.
Digital X-rays are faster, produce images that can be viewed on a computer in seconds and zoomed for better quality, and expose patients to up to 90% less radiation compared to traditional X-rays. The digital X-ray procedure also provides patients with easy access to information about their oral health.
In March 2019, Carestream Dental launched the CS 9600 imaging unit at the 2019 International Dental Show. This system combines 2D panoramic technology, CBCT imaging, 3D facial scanning, and model scanning into one powerful unit. The new partnership between ORCA Dental AI and Planmeca Oy also allows for automatic AI-driven cephalometric analyses for customers.
