North America Market Analysis

By the end of 2037, North America teledentistry market is likely to account for more than 46% share, partly due to advanced healthcare infrastructure, increasing integration of digital health platforms, and growing awareness of benefits associated with telehealth services. Other key factors include an aging population and an increase in the incidence of oral health problems that are driving the wide diffusion of teledentistry solutions. In addition, advancements in AI-driven diagnosis and cloud-based telehealth management systems are further accelerating the adoption of teledentistry across the region.

The U.S. significantly contributes to the dominance of North America in the teledentistry market.  The major players, such as Henry Schein and Patterson Companies, are rapidly growing their teledentistry portfolios to meet the swelling demand for remote dental services. Patterson Companies completed the acquisition of Carestream Health's teledentistry business in March 2023, a strategic move prepared to further enable its remote service offerings in dentistry. This transaction is part of a broader trend in the U.S. market, where companies are developing comprehensive and accessible virtual dental care solutions through various consolidation strategies to reach an expanding telehealth market.

In Canada, the government is also actively promoting the inclusion of teledentistry within its larger framework of telehealth to promote better access to health care in remote and rural areas. Since a greater percentage of the population lives in rural areas, virtual health services are now becoming a necessity, thereby, patients can consult dental professionals without having to travel long distances. The development of digital infrastructure, especially extending broadband in underserved areas, has been crucial for Canada in minimizing connectivity issues. In that respect, increased access to high-speed internet will guarantee that more individuals have the opportunity to use teledentistry platforms to address health disparities and enhance access to dental care in remote communities.

Asia Pacific Market Analysis

Asia Pacific teledentistry market is expected to showcase growth rate of around 16.5% between 2025 and 2037. Additionally, the large population, especially in countries such as India and China, presents immense possibilities for market growth in the region. A key driver of this growth could be government initiatives on digital health infrastructure improvement, particularly in rural areas of the region. Moreover, increasing smartphone and internet penetration across the region enables the population to access dental experts remotely, thus facilitating the rise in teledentistry services.

Teledentistry demand in India is growing, particularly among the underserved sections where access to conventional dental services is negligible. One recent key development in this industry came when Colgate-Palmolive launched a free teledentistry consultation service in June 2020, offering virtual dental consultations to Indian patients. These are some of the initiatives undertaken that underline the rising importance of global healthcare companies in the management of demand for remote dental care in India by facilitating access and preventive care services to its population through telehealth platforms.

China is also becoming a lucrative teledentistry market, with telehealth platforms partnering with local dental care providers to expand their services. The government has, over the past few years, encouraged telehealth as part of broad health reforms that target improvement in access to rural and remote regions. Such integration of telehealth platforms with local providers allows for the facilitation and delivery of dental care services to underserved regions, promoting teledentistry market growth.
