Dental lasers are devices that produce a narrow beam of light that is used to remove or shape a tissue in a dental treatment procedure. Painless and short dental surgeries have been made possible with the help of dental lasers. They are highly effective, depending upon the dentist�s ability to control the exposure time and laser power output. There are various advantages associated with the use of dental lasers, such as more comfort to a patient due to less post-operative pain, bleeding, and morbidity, along with the decreased usage of anesthesia and shorter procedure time.

The global dental lasers market is expected to reach USD 224.7 Million by 2020, at a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period from 2015 to 2020.

Based on type of products, the global market has been classified into soft tissue dental lasers, all tissue dental lasers, and dental welding lasers. The soft tissue dental lasers segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR of 5.9% between 2015 and 2020, owing to the rising incidences of soft tissue diseases such as gingivitis and periodontal diseases. Based on application, the market has been classified into conservative dentistry, endodontic treatment, oral surgery, implantology, peri-implantitis, periodontics, and tooth whitening. The periodontics segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR of 6.0% from 2015 to 2020. Based on geography, the global dental lasers market has been segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World (RoW). North America accounted for the largest share of the market in 2014. The market in this region is expected to reach USD 87.9 million by 2020. The market in Europe is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2015 to 2020.

The prevalence of dental disorders, such as dental caries and periodontal diseases has increased significantly across the globe in the recent years. According to the Globocan Project, 300,373 oral cancer and lip cancer cases were recorded worldwide in 2012. This is estimated to reach 702,149 by 2017, with an annual growth rate of 18.5%. The increase in the patient pool, along with the increasing awareness of oral hygiene, is expected to fuel the growth of the global dental lasers market. The growing demand for cosmetic dentistry and rising medical and dental tourism in developing countries act as other major drivers of this market. However, the lack of a proper reimbursement scenario may hinder the growth of this market.

Dental lasers are used to treat tooth decay, gum diseases, biopsy or lesion removals, and teeth whitening, among others. Dental lasers, when used for surgical and dental procedures, act as cutting instruments or vaporizers of tissue. When used for filling, the lasers help strengthen the bond between the filling and the tooth. When used in the teeth-whitening procedures, laser acts as a heat source and enhance the effect of tooth-bleaching agents. Earlier, laser systems were bulky; however, these systems are now small, portable, handy, convenient, and easy-to-use.

The global dental laser market is expected to reach USD 224.7 Million by 2020, at a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period from 2015 to 2020.
