Top Trends Shaping the Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Dental Imaging Market

1. Growing adoption of cloud-based AI platforms for remote diagnostics

• The market is shifting towards increasing adoption of cloud-based AI platforms, which enable remote diagnostics, real-time collaboration, and scalable integration of imaging solutions.

For example, Dentsply Sirona’s DS Core integrates a cloud solution for dentists and labs, offering a range of tools that enhance efficiency, productivity, and growth.

2. Emerging Use of Natural Language Processing in Dental Imaging

• NLP solutions aid in processing unstructured patient data and dental image reports to expedite and more accurately diagnose oral diseases such as cavities, periodontitis, and mouth cancer. NLP also automates report production to reduce human intervention and optimize paperwork, thus improving efficiency for dental professionals.

For example, in February 2025, Pearl partnered with Open Dental Software, integrating its second opinion AI into Open Dental’s imaging module. In June 2024, it has released Precheck that uses natural language processing that easily aggregate and integrate patient insurance information, Precheck automates the insurance verification process and delivers dental practices and their patient's authoritative coverage information.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Dental Imaging Market Growth Drivers vs. Challenges

Opportunities:

• Increasing prevalence of dental diseases: There is an increasing prevalence of dental diseases, with 3.7 billion people with oral disease in 2025, due to lifestyle changes and eating habits, leading to the growing prevalence of dental diseases such as dental caries, periodontal diseases and oral cancers. As the prevalence of dental diseases is increasing, the demand for precise diagnostics, streamlining workflow and treatment planning is growing, leading the AI in dental imaging market to grow. AI is helping in revolutionising the treatment and diagnosis of dental diseases by highlighting the early-stage cavities, bone density analysis, pathology detection, nerve cavitation detection and others, and with the growing dental diseases, the market is expected to expand.

Challenges:

• Data Quality and Availability: The lack of datasets on dental imaging limits the training of AI models, limiting their applications. Also, the inconsistency in data leads the inaccurate results, restraining its applications.
• Bias and generalizability: The errors in data, algorithms or model outputs can lead to inaccurate predictions. Also, the generalizability of AI models limits their use in real-world dental practices.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Dental Imaging Market Regional Analysis

• North America: The North American region will dominate due to the growing expansion and adoption of AI technologies in the dental imaging market in the USA, Canada and Mexico. The increasing cases of dental diseases, as per the statistics mentioned by the MyToothFairy, approximately 75% of American adults plan a visit a dentist in the coming year, and 65% of adults aged 18 and over had a dental visit within the past year. Also, the shortage of professions is driving the demand for AI. For example, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as of 2024, there were approximately 57 million Americans who live in dental health professional shortage areas whereas about 67% of those shortage areas belong in the rural communities which demands the need an efficient growth of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the dental imaging market.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Dental Imaging Market Competitive Landscape

The market is moderately fragmented, with some important key players such as Dentsply Sirona Inc., Planmeca Group (Planmeca Oy), Envista Holding Corporation, Vatech Co., Ltd., Apteryx Imaging Inc. and others. 

• Innovation: On March 2025, Align Technology Inc. has added new capabilities i.e., Near Infra-Red Imaging Technology to its next generation iTero Lumina™ intraoral scanner, delivering faster scanning speed(2 times faster scanning), higher accuracy(full-jaw accuracy), superior visualization (3x larger field of view), 50% smaller wand, and a more comfortable scanning experience.
• Collaboration: In February 2025, Pearl, the world leader in dental AI technology, made a partnership with Open Dental Software to bring its AI solutions into Open Dental's practice management system (PMS). As a result of this collaboration, Pearl's Second Opinion AI is entirely integrated into Open Dental's Imaging Module, making AI-powered radiographic examination convenient for dentists across the country.
