Standalone Intraoral Scanners Market

Market Insights

Standalone intraoral scanners are digital impression equipment used to scan the intraoral areas for dental treatment. These devices are based upon optical technologies such as laser and light-emitting diodes (LED) which are used to scan the required intraoral portion. Standalone intraoral scanners are used to develop three-dimensional (3D) digital models which are highly precise and detailed.

The scanned images/models are instantly available and are directly sent to the dental laboratory/chair-side CAD/CAM system. Standalone intraoral scanners are used in different dental applications, including inlays, onlays, bridges, dentures, and other orthodontic treatments. Since there is typically no contact between the patient’s tooth and the scanning device, these scanners offer more comfortable and easy dental treatment than traditional techniques.

The standalone intraoral scanners market is largely driven by the numerous advantages of these scanners over traditional techniques. Using intraoral scanners nearly eliminates the need for repeated iterations in dental restorations. Digital intraoral scanning offers easy and accurate scanning with minimum effort for both the dentist and the patient. Additionally, the optical sources used in the scanning devices are safe and hence cause no harm to the patients.

This is another factor fueling the adoption of these devices. Nevertheless, the high initial costs is the major factor hindering the market growth. This is expected to subside with the declining prices of the scanners and alternatives such as lease payment options offered by the scanner vendors.

The global standalone intraoral scanners market is segmented, based on its types, into the following categories

• Confocal Microscopic Imaging Technology
• Optical Wand Technology 

By Technology

In 2014, the global standalone intraoral scanners market was dominated by the optical wand technology-based intraoral scanners. The segment contributed more than fifty percent of the total market revenue as of 2014. The segment’s dominance is majorly attributed to the low cost and smaller size of these scanners compared to the other devices in the market. Further, the ongoing advancements in the segment, such as powder-free scanners, is another factor contributing to the segment growth. This is expected further to drive the demand for optical wand technology-based scanners. As a result, the optical wand segment is expected to retain its dominant position throughout the forecast period.

Intraoral scanners based upon confocal microscopic imaging technology offer powder-free scanning. This enables easy scanning as compared to the optical wand technology since the scanner can be operated without maintaining any distance between the teeth and the device. As a result, the segment is expected to register strong growth in the market during the forecast period. Nevertheless, the segment growth may be hindered due to the high initial costs of these scanners over the optical wand technology-based scanners. However, alternatives such as lease payment options is anticipated to subside the high-cost restraint of the segment in the coming years.
