Electric dental handpieces are devices used by dentists to carry out a number of surgeries, including endodontics, cavity preparation, crown preparation, and decay removal. The electric motor used in electric dental handpieces is connected to a shaft by gears, and these gears are connected by burs (the part that performs actual cutting).

The bur is rotated by the turbine of an air-driven dental handpiece, which is powered by compressed air. In comparison to air-driven dental handpieces, these electric handpieces provide a number of advantages, including constant speed and torque.

Due to the fact that new electric dental handpiece models come with programmable switching features for endodontics systems, these tools are currently gaining more popularity among dental professionals. Other benefits of these electric handpieces over an air-driven handpiece include improved accessibility, more precise manipulation, and no turbine malfunction.

Sales Analysis of Electric Handpiece Market from 2015 to 2021 Vs Market Outlook for 2022 to 2032

The market value for electric handpieces was approximately 6.3% of the overall ~USD 6.8 Billion global dental handpiece market in 2021.

The sale of electric handpieces grew at a CAGR of close to 4.3% from 2015 to 2021. The market for electric handpieces is expected to be propelled due to the rising prevalence of oral diseases.

According to FDI World Dental Federation, nearly 3.5 billion people worldwide suffer from oral diseases.

The 2019 study by Global Burden of Disease also estimated the number of children suffering from primary tooth decay issues worldwide to be around 520 million, whereas 2 billion adults have tooth decay which is permanent. The need for dentists is growing globally; for example, a WHO factsheet from 2017 states that 93% of its member nations have less than 1 dentist per 1000 people.

People are now more aware of the problems with dental health and how to address them as soon as possible. This is directly related to the forecasted expansion of the electric handpiece market.

Research and development on electric handpiece products have been a consistent part of the enhancement of the dental handpiece industry. Innovations are making the procedure more efficient for dental professionals and comfortable for patients. The different advantages provided by the most recent electric dental handpiece demonstrate the market's innovation and progress. For Instance-

Nakanishi Inc. announced the release of the S-Max M Series on March 12, 2019, which offers the dependability and safety requirements imposed by both industry standards and practitioners.

Other factors such as the rise in the geriatric population with dental and tooth decay problems and increasing demand for cosmetic dentistry would further aid in the growth of the electric handpiece market.

As per the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons 2016 insights, amongst adults aged 35 - 44 years, nearly 69% have lost at least one permanent tooth which causes them to opt for cosmetic dentistry.

Additionally WHO stated that nearly 80 to 85% of dental diseases occur in patients aged greater than 50 years.

Electric Handpiece Market

What are the Key Opportunities for the Electric Handpiece Manufacturers?

The market is set to present an opportunistic outlook, owing to increasing awareness among the rural population. There is a chance to inform and assist the rural population in realizing the value of dental health and oral hygiene.

Such strategies will provide the market an opportunity to expand, even in regions with low market penetration right now. There are many methods that might be used to accomplish this, one of which is communication via telehealth. In addition to supporting patients and meeting their demands, this will offer a chance to advertise cutting-edge items in the electric handpiece industry.

The growth will further be propelled by increasing government healthcare expenditure and awareness programs. For instance, the MHLW created the 8020 Promotion Foundation and the 8020 programs to promote oral health and assist people in saving at least 20 of their own teeth until the age of 80.

The increase in demand for silver-gold-palladium alloys for crowns and other dental prosthesis can be attributed to the expansion of this market. People choose expensive metals because they are better from an aesthetic standpoint and are covered by dental insurance.

What are the Factors Restraining Demand for Electric Handpiece Products?

Although the electric handpiece market has numerous end-uses, there are certain obstacles that are likely to pose a challenge to market growth. The low reimbursement rate for dental procedures is one of the main reasons restraining the growth of the electric handpiece market.

Dentists are reluctant to accept Medicaid patients due to low reimbursement rates. The Medicaid reimbursement rate is roughly 30% of what dentists typically charge for specific dental procedures. Unfortunately, because of the poor reimbursement rate, dentists are unable to accept these patients.

These propose an adverse consequence on the formative development of the electric handpiece market.
