Tooth-filling material pertains to the dental filling substances utilized to fill cavities and prevent additional deterioration of the tooth structure. Dentists use it to mend and restore damaged or decayed teeth.
The primary types of tooth-filling materials include composite resin, silver amalgam, glass ionomer, gold fillings, and others. Dental composite, also known as composite resin, is a tooth-colored material used in dentistry for a variety of restorative and cosmetic purposes. It can be applied through both direct and indirect methods in hospitals, dental clinics, and various other end uses.

The tooth filling materials market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.82 billion in 2024 to $1.94 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing dental health awareness, demographic trends, dental insurance coverage, consumer preferences for aesthetic dentistry, prevalence of dental issues.
The tooth filling materials market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.35 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to focus on minimally invasive dentistry, increasing disposable income in emerging markets, aging population's impact on dental care, evolving regulatory landscape, telehealth and remote dentistry. Major trends in the forecast period include digital dentistry integration, technological innovations in dental materials, advancements in dental technology, advancements in nanotechnology, digital dentistry integration.
The anticipated surge in the incidence rate of dental disorders is expected to drive the expansion of the tooth-filling material market in the foreseeable future. Dental disorders encompass a spectrum of conditions affecting the teeth, gums, jaw, and related oral structures, including issues such as tooth decay, gum disease, and malocclusion. These disorders necessitate the use of dental filling materials for restorative dental treatment, addressing minor fractures and decay in the teeth. For instance, data from the UK's National Health Service's '2022-23 Annual Report' revealed a significant rise in dental disorder treatments, with 32.5 million cases in 2022, marking a notable 23.2% increase compared to the 26.4 million treatments in 2021. Therefore, the heightened incidence of dental disorders is poised to fuel the growth of the tooth-filling material market.
The increasing aging population is expected to be a driving factor for the tooth-filling materials market. The geriatric population, defined as individuals aged 65 or older, utilizes tooth-filling materials to address age-related dental issues such as cavities and tooth decay, promoting oral health and maintaining functional dentition. The World Health Organization reported in October 2022 that globally, 1 in 6 individuals would be 60 or older by 2030, reaching an estimated 2.1 billion elderly people by 2050. Consequently, the rising geriatric population is contributing to the growth of the tooth-filling materials market.
Companies in the tooth-filling material market are actively developing innovative products such as hybrid nanoceramic resin. This material combines ceramic and polymer (resin) properties at the nanoscale. For instance, in February 2022, Desktop Health introduced Flexcera Smile Ultra Plus Resin, a next-generation hybrid nanoceramic resin providing ceramic-such as strength and natural aesthetics. This product, compatible with EnvisionTEC 3D printers, presents a breakthrough for dental practitioners seeking enhanced strength and aesthetics in dental restorations.
In August 2024, Ultradent Products Inc., a US-based dental device company, acquired Medicinos Linija UAB for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, Ultradent seeks to broaden its product portfolio and enhance its position in the global dental materials market. Medicinos Linija UAB is a Lithuania-based company that specializes in manufacturing a diverse range of dental materials.
