Toothpaste Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2031 - By Product, Technology, Grade, Application, End-user, Region: (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East and Africa)
The global toothpaste market, valued at US$ 23 billion in 2024, is projected to expand significantly, reaching approximately US$ 38.1 billion by the end of 2031. Several factors contribute to this market's robust growth.
Rising Demand for Oral Care Products:
Toothpaste is a widely used dentifrice product, essential for maintaining oral hygiene by removing food debris and plaque from teeth. It prevents tooth decay and bad breath through active ingredients like fluorides. Poor dietary habits, high sugar consumption, smoking, and increased awareness of oral health drive market growth. Consumers are increasingly preferring premium products offering targeted solutions for various oral health issues, including deep cleaning, teeth whitening, sensitivity relief, herbal care, repair and protection, and freshness.
Emergence of Plant-Based Toothpaste:
The market for toothpaste is witnessing a surge in plant-based products. Herbal extracts with antimicrobial properties have gained popularity, leading to the use of natural ingredients like turmeric, cloves, sage, neem, eucalyptus, myrrh, salt, and charcoal in toothpaste formulations, particularly in Asia Pacific and North America. Dental clinics' growth worldwide, along with increased awareness of oral diseases, further drives the demand for preventative products, including sensitivity toothpaste.
Challenges to Market Growth:
The use of chemical ingredients like parabens, fluoride, and triclosan in toothpaste can have adverse effects on teeth, causing abrasions. Regulatory bodies, such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, have banned triclosan, prompting dental care companies to reformulate their toothpaste. Additionally, the market's low return on investment and oversaturation of dental products have led some companies to exit the industry, hampering investments.
Country-wise Market Insights:
