The global dental inlays and onlays market size is expected to reach USD 9.28 billion by 2033, registering a CAGR of 10.4% from 2026 to 2033, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increase in the number of dental practices, the increase in the prevalence of dental diseases, the surge in public awareness regarding dental inlays and onlays procedures, and the surge in the demand for cosmetic dentistry among the young population are the major factors that drive the market. In addition, extensive use of porcelain materials in dental restoration procedures, advancements in the techniques used in dental practices, and improvements in dental inlays and onlays materials further boost the growth of the market.
The COVID-19 epidemic had disturbed several dental inlays and onlays procedures due to the strict restrictions enforced by the government. The epidemic has resulted in the enclosure of dental care facilities and a decrease in the number of patient visits to dental clinics. Also, COVID-19 resulted in tele consultancy as dental professionals were not going to offices for practice during the pandemic period. However, in 2021, there was no major impact on the market as dental offices were reopened in many countries and the number of dental inlays and onlays procedures also increased.
An increase in public preference for minimally invasive dental restoration treatments, a rise in the number of dental practitioners, a surge in R&D activities, new dental inlays and onlays material launches, and a rise in healthcare expenditure foster the growth of the market. Moreover, dental inlays and onlays provide advantages such as strong and durable nature, enhanced physical properties to conventional composite filling, and minimal post-operative sensitivity. Furthermore, strong medical infrastructure and well-established reimbursement policies in developed countries drive the market.
