The dental liners and bases market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market for dental liners and bases has witnessed robust growth in recent times. The market size is projected to rise from $1.48 billion in 2024 to $1.55 billion in 2025, seeing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2%.
The growth observed in the historical period can be linked to developments in cosmetic dentistry, increasing aesthetic consciousness, influences from celebrities, growth in disposable income, and the impact of social media.
The dental liners and bases market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• A consistent growth is anticipated in the dental liners and bases market size in the upcoming years, with its worth expected to hit $1.8 billion by 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.7%.
This escalation during the forecast period can be ascribed to factors such as increasing demands from an aging populace, economic growth in emerging economies, 3D printing incorporation in dentistry, emphasis on minimally invasive aesthetic dentistry, and the rise of telemedicine and online consultations. Novel trends predicted in the period include personalized and digital smile designing, advancements in veneer materials technology, innovations in dental technology, a spike in demand for non-invasive aesthetic dentistry, and growing popularity of minimal-prep and no-prep veneers.
Growing occurrences of dental caries are anticipated to stimulate the expansion of the dental liners and bases market. Dental caries, often known as tooth decay or cavities, are persistent contagious disorders instigated by mouth bacteria that metabolize sugars into acid, thus the demineralizing of the tooth's hard enamel tissue. Dental liners and bases, both crucial elements in restorative dentistry, are utilized to offer a supportive boundary and bolster tooth structures, preempt postoperative sensitivity, foster tissue health, and enhance the overall efficacy and durability of dental restorations. The World Health Organization (WHO), a Switzerland-based international organization, reported in November 2022 that there are approximately 514 million children worldwide with primary tooth caries, with an estimated 2 billion adults suffering from permanent tooth caries in that year. Additionally, the total tooth loss owing to dental caries is 7% in individuals over 20, rising to 23% in those above 60. As such, the growing prevalence of dental caries is set to fuel the growth of the dental liners and bases market. With respect to Dental Liners and Bases Market Driver, the escalation in cases of periodontic diseases is set to boost the market for dental liners and bases. Periodontic diseases, otherwise known as periodontal diseases, encompass a series of inflammatory conditions impacting the structures supporting the teeth. These diseases make use of dental liners and bases to serve as a shield protecting the pulp from irritants and bacteria. According to the global oral health status report by the World Health Organization (WHO) in March 2023, severe periodontal diseases are estimated to affect approximately 19% of adults worldwide, translating to over one billion instances globally each year. Moreover, the US-based National Library of Medicine, a center for biomedical informatics and computational biology, reported in July 2023 that Taiwan had 9.1 million dental patients with periodontic diseases and recorded an out-patient-visit total of 18.4 million in the year 2021. Therefore, the rise in periodontic disease instances will catalyze the growth of the dental liners and bases market.

Leading enterprises in the dental liners and bases market are creating unique solutions like high-impact denture bases to establish a competitive advantage. High-impact denture base resin, which is a ceramic-infused 3D printing resin, is intended for the creation of the pink or gum-colored sections of dentures. In May 2023, the American company SprintRay Inc., known for manufacturing 3D printers, introduced ceramic-infused 3D printing resins ideal for high-performance dentures. This ceramic-infused, biocompatible material can be used to create high-impact denture bases. Comprised of high-impact acrylic resin, this copolymer enhances various mechanical aspects of denture bases, such as their resistance to impacts. These high-impact denture base resin products, compared to traditional denture base materials, are designed to provide superior durability and resistance to breaking.
