Get more information on this report:Oral health signifies the health of the teeth, gums, and entire oral-facial system. Good oral health allows us to smile, speak, and chew without any complications or hesitation. Dental digital X-ray equipment, which is dental imaging equipment, is used in RadioVisioGraphy (RVG) to capture the teeth, gums, and their surroundings and perform dental examinations. The pictures produced are further used to detect and treat dental disorders. With the increase in oral diseases such as cavities (tooth decay) and gum (periodontal) diseases, the global dental digital X-ray equipment market is expected to see notable growth in the forecast period. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 40% of adults have reported feeling pain in their mouth within the last year, and more than 80% of people have at least one cavity by age 34. Additionally, it is also estimated that on average, over 34 million school hours and more than USD 45 billion in productivity is lost each year as a result of dental emergencies requiring unplanned care.

Growth Drivers
Increase in Regular Dental Checkups Amongst Individuals - A recent study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention revealed that around 63.0% of the population aged 18 and over had a dental visit in 2020. Whereas, 85.9% of children (2 – 17 years) visited the dentist in the same year.
Growing Aging Population on Poor Oral Health- The aging population, which is particularly affected by poor oral health such as dental caries, periodontal disease, tooth loss, dry mouth, or oral cancer, is an anticipated factor for the dental digital X-ray equipment market to grow. Recent reports by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show that nearly all adults (96%) aged 65 years or older have had a cavity and about 68% have gum disease.
Rise in Number of Active Dentists - According to the American Dental Association, there were 201,117 practicing dentists in the United States in 2020. This translated to 61.0 dentists per 100,000 population.
Increased Cost of Dental Digital X-ray Equipment - The difficulty in increasing spending, especially in low- to middle-income nations, is mostly caused by the high cost of dental digital X-ray equipment that is required for monitoring and diagnosis. As an estimate, a used Carestream Kodak 9300 Premium 3D Cone Beam and Panoramic X-ray machine potentially cost as much as $50,000.
