Dentists are increasingly using innovative technology like in-office chairside 3D printing. Dental clinics may produce crowns, braces, and surgical guides in-house using chairside 3D printing. The process is faster and cheaper.
One important thing that drives this market is the ability to make oral implants very precisely and in any way that the customer wants. Because 3D printing can be done right in the dentist's office, they can make replacements that fit each patient better and look better. It makes patients happier and helps the market grow when there is this much flexibility.
Dental treatments that take as little time as possible have an effect on the demand for 3D printing at the dentist's office. With the old ways, tooth molds were often sent to outside labs, which took longer to turn around. With chairside 3D printing, dentists can cut down on wait times, giving customers faster and more convenient options.
Dental offices might be able to save money, which changes the way the market works. When 3D printing is done in-house, there is no need to outsource, which cuts costs and gives practices more control over their spending. Small and medium-sized dentistry offices that want to buy new tools will like this cost-effective method.
Continuous improvements in 3D printer materials have a big impact on how the market changes. More and more safe and long-lasting materials are becoming available for dental workers to use at the chairside. These materials make printed dental implants better and last longer, which means that more treatments can be done in the office.
The business is changing because of the attention on improving the customer experience. With in-office chairside 3D printing, doctors and patients can work together and talk to each other more. Patients can see the digital design and 3D printing process, which makes them more interested in, knowledgeable about, and sure of the suggested dental treatments.
Following the rules set by regulators is a key factor that affects how the market works. To make sure that patients are safe and that 3D-printed oral products work well, dentists must follow strict rules set by the government. To get legal products on the market, manufacturers and dentists need to know how to deal with regulations.
The market is affected by the number of dental workers who can get training and education. With more and more people using 3D printers in their offices, people need to learn how to use, maintain, and fix problems with technology. Dental offices can easily use 3D printing now that they have training programs in place.
The way the market changes is affected by how chairside 3D printing is added to digital processes. It is becoming easier for dental offices to use digital prints, CAD/CAM tools, and 3D printing together, which makes the process more efficient and linked. This combination makes dentistry offices more productive and useful generally.
There is more and more competition among producers in the market for in-office chairside 3D printing in dentistry. Companies are forced to make 3D printing solutions that are easy to use, reliable, and affordable because of the competition. The market also gets more concentrated as bigger companies buy or work with smaller ones to get a stronger place in the market.

Growing cases of odontoma are affecting the arrangement of the teeth and delocalization of the jaw. These incidences can occur in any age group and the mal positioning of teeth and jaws differ variably. The mal-positioned teeth and jaw structure vary from person to person hence the demand for personalized dental procedures has increased in recent years. Additionally, in odontoma, bone expansion into the jaws alters the facial geometry and causes displacement of adjacent teeth, malformation, devitalization of adjacent teeth, and aplasia. This mal positioning of teeth requires special care hence the patients are consulting dentists for customized dental care. Further, the advent of 3D printing in dental practices has put forward a promising option to personalized and customized care which strongly promotes growth in the market.
Moreover, tooth decay or caries is the degradation of the tooth caused due to increasing concentration of bacteria in the oral cavity, frequent snacking, bad oral hygiene, and high consumption of sugary drinks. Streptococcus mutant bacterial species is the major reason for cavities formation. However, several lactobacilli are related to the development of the lesion as well. According to the data documented by the WHO, more than two billion individuals suffer from dental caries and 520 million toddlers and children suffer from cavities of primary teeth. The worst dental decay scenario leads to teeth replacement or other dental procedures such as crown insertion, fillings, root canals, and tooth extractions. These procedures require dental products specific to the patient's oral symmetry. The dental clinics and individual dentists are installing chairside 3D printing devices to offer immediate dental services to their patients.
Hence, the increasing prevalence of dental caries and high demand for personalized dental procedures are fostering market growth.
Based on product & services, the global in-office/chairside 3D printing in dentistry market is segmented into material, equipment, and services. The equipment segment held the largest market share in 2022, and the services is anticipated to register the highest CAGR from 2022 to 2032. The wide range of applications of equipment, such as the integration of 3D printing machines, supports dentists in gaining better control over workflow and minimizing product turnaround time. In addition, the in-house creation of oral devices saves costs associated with lab fees and shipping while also enabling same-day patient services for specific devices. Formlabs (US) registered a 460% increase in printers sold in the dental industry since 2016. The year 2022 is anticipated to be a landmark year for 3D printing growth as dental practices and labs seek to have on-demand and rapid manufacturing for these completely digital workflows.
Based on technology, the IN-OFFICE CHAIRSIDE 3D PRINTING IN DENTISTRY MARKET has been segmented into stereolithography (SLA), digital light processing (DLP), liquid crystal display (LCD), and others. Stereolithography (SLA) held the largest market share in 2022 and is anticipated to register the highest CAGR from 2022 to 2032. The ability of SLA printers to produce a wide array of products with highly accurate results is positively contributing to the SLA segment's growth. Moreover, digital light processing technology operates with the same curing, polymerization, and build-up techniques as stereolithography but utilizes a digital projector as a light source for solidifying the resin, rather than a laser.
