Dental Laboratory Welders Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Type (Manual, Automatic), By Application (Cast Repairs, New Clasp Assembly, Loops & Posts), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2024 - 2030
Dental Laboratory Welders Market Growth & Trends
The global dental laboratory welders market size is anticipated to reach USD 315.0 million by 2030, according to the new report of Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 9.0% from 2024 to 2030. Dental laboratory welders are an essential tool as it assists in joining various types of pieces, made of similar or different alloys, such as titanium-based alloys, Cobalt-chromium (CoCr) alloys, and even gold-palladium (AuPd) alloys. It is an efficient and low-error alternative to the traditional soldering and brazing technique.
Factors like rising technological advancement in dental treatment and the high success rate of laser welding techniques in orthodontic procedures are propelling the market growth. According to the Dental Economic, the dental laser welding technique is currently the most advanced and high precision technique as compared to traditional welding. These advanced techniques provide the intra-oral ability for treatment, reduces distortion, provide high mechanical strength, and are corrosion resistant. Therefore the adoption of dental welding has increased by many professionals.
Dental welding is required for procedures like dental clasp assembly, cast repair, welding of the implant post, crown and bridge fixation, and other implant restoration procedures. According to the American Dental Association, around 5,000,000 implant procedures are carried out in the U.S alone with a success rate of 95%, rising success rate of implants and efficiency of welding techniques are some of the reasons for market growth.
In the light of COVID-19, the global market was hampered as the footfall of patient appointments for surgical treatments was temporarily suspended. However since the government in many countries has allowed resuming elective surgical procedures, clinics have also started orthodontic procedures again by adhering to strict Covid-19 protocols. Moreover, many dentists believe that there will be a surge for oral care and dental treat after the Covid-19 crisis and this is expected to propel market growth.
The manual segment dominated the market and accounted for a share of 53.5% in 2023. This dominance can be attributed to the control and flexibility of manual welds used by dentists for dental prosthetics.
New clasp assembly accounted for the largest market revenue share of 14.8% in 2023. The increase in the use of partial dentures affirms the segment growth.
The dental laboratory welders market in North America dominated globally with a share of 39.8% in 2023. This is attributed to the high prevalence of dental diseases in this region which creates a demand for dental restorations such as crowns, and bridges, all of which rely on welding.
