세계의 치과용 에어 폴리싱 유닛 시장 예측 : 제품별, 범위별, 용도별, 최종 사용자별, 지역별 분석(-2032년)

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Dental Air Polishing Unit Market is accounted for $749.3 million in 2025 and is expected to reach $1187.5 million by 2032 growing at a CAGR of 6.8% during the forecast period. A dental air polishing unit is a device used in oral hygiene to remove stains, plaque, and biofilm from teeth using a high-speed stream of air, water, and fine abrasive powder. It is less abrasive than traditional scaling, offering a gentler cleaning experience. This system enhances patient comfort and improves efficiency in dental prophylaxis. Commonly used in professional cleanings, it helps prevent cavities and gum disease while ensuring a polished, smooth tooth surface.

According to the survey, 78% of dental professionals use air polishing as a part of their practice, due to its effectiveness in plaque removal and patient comfort.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growing awareness of preventive oral care

Increasing awareness of preventive oral care significantly drives the Dental Air Polishing Unit market. Patients demand non-invasive cleaning methods for better oral health outcomes.
