Teledentistry Market Trends

The rapid increase in the demand to reduce dental care costs is one of the major factors that drives the growth of the market. Teledentistry reduces the need for physical office visits, which lowers overhead costs for dental practices, thereby contributing to the growth of the market.

The high cost of dental procedures to examine dental patients is one of the major factors that restrict the patient from adopting oral health services more frequently. For instance, on average, the cost of dental work ranges from about USD 100 for an exam to USD 150 for an amalgam filling. Moreover, the basic oral exam for teeth and gums to evaluate oral health can cost between USD 50 and USD 200, without insurance.
Thus, the advantages offered by teledentistry such as immediate access to dental consultations, reducing the need for costly emergency room visits for dental issues and early detection of dental problems through teledentistry can lead to less expensive treatments and better patient outcomes, thereby contributing to the growth of the market.
