Global Intraoral Scanning and Inspection System Market - Regional Analysis

On the basis of region, of the global intraoral scanning and inspection system market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa. In North America, dental market is changing and evolving due to higher self-awareness and hygiene in the population. Thus, digital impression technology, which is prominently used in dentistry procedures, is having significant growth in oral health market. Therefore, dental equipment companies are focusing on betterment of technologies that are being used in dentistry by focusing on research and development to achieve growth in the global intraoral scanning market and inspection system market. For instance, in 2019, Denstply Sirona, an U.S.-based dental consumables producer, launched ‘Primescan’, a highly precise pixel intraoral scanner, which can capture more than 50,000 images per second in 3-d image.

Thus, Europe is expected to witness significant growth in intraoral scanning and inspection system market over the forecast period, owing to rise in dentistry procedures in Europe, which is expected to drive demand for intraoral scanner and inspection systems in Europe. Therefore, dental equipment companies are focusing on research and development for advancement in digital technologies used in orthodontics. For instance, in 2019, 3Shape announced the release of TRIOS 3, an entry level intraoral scanner with basic features such as lightweight scanner with ultra- speed scanning used in implant scanning in orthodontics.

Furthermore, in Asia Pacific, tooth decay, predental disease, oral- dental trauma, and oral cancer are having high prevalence in some countries of Asia Pacific. Intraoral scanners are prominently associated with dentistry procedures therefore, Asia Pacific is expected to witness distinctive growth in the intraoral scanning and inspection system. Therefore, dental equipment companies are focusing on research and development to achieve growth and make profit in intraoral scanning and inspection system market. For instance, Medit, a South Korean dental equipment manufacturing company, launched ‘i500’ intraoral scanner, which offers highly accurate, ultra-fast, powderless scanning in vivid colors and are used in orthodontics.
