Dental 3D printing is an additive manufacturing process which is performed with the help of CAD/CAM, oral scanning, designing, and 3D printing. Several types of products are made in the dental industry by using 3D printing technology such as dental implants, physical models for prosthodontics, dental crowns, bridges, etc. Dental 3D printing has been widely adopted in maxillofacial and implant surgery for developing anatomical models which are used in complex treatments. The ease and user-friendliness of 3D printing procedures have allowed the dentistry industry to print materials convenient to dental requirements by different individuals.

Technological advancement in dental 3D printing in terms of design, delivery positioning, material, enhanced fabrication, rising demand of cosmetic dentistry and consolidation of dental laboratories are the major factors which are driving the growth of dental 3D printing market during the forecast period. Furthermore, high incidence of dental caries and other dental diseases will lead to the demand of dental 3D printing across the globe, as this technology allows the healthcare professionals to perform the dental procedure with great accuracy, high potency and negligible trauma to the patients. For instance, as per the American College of Prosthodontists, it estimated that by 2030, there will be more than 200 million partially edentulous patients. In addition, rising government and industry initiatives that aid research and development activities to support advanced dental 3D printing research. However, the high cost of dental treatments, the dearth of a skilled dental professional in emerging countries, inadequate reimbursement scenario and stringent regulatory process for the approval of 3D printing are some of the factors which are hampering the growth of the market.

Various notable players operating in the market, include 3D Systems, Stratasys, Renishaw Inc., Roland DG Corporation, SLM Solutions, EnvisionTEC, DENTSPLY Sirona, Straumann AG Group, FormLabs Inc., Prodways Group, EOS AG among others. Major players are focussing acquisition strategies to expand their business operations by leveraging their wide product portfolio across the globe.
