Dental Practice Management Software Market To Reach $6.77 Billion By 2033

Dental Practice Management Software Market Growth & Trends

The global dental practice management software market size is expected to reach USD 6.77 billion by 2033, registering a CAGR of 10.8% from 2025 to 2033, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The robust government support and increasing number of dental clinics and hospitals have fueled the adoption of Electronic Dental Records (EDRs)which are primary factors driving the market growth. According to the country’s National Statistics Institute, there were 40,968 registered dentists in 2022 with 21,638 dental clinics in Spain. As more individuals graduate from dentistry schools and colleges and establish their practices, the potential client base expands significantly.

According to the BBC and the British Dental Association (BDA), there were 6.2, 6.0, 4.8, and 4.4 NHS dentists per 10,000 population in Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales, and England, respectively, as of May 2022. The rising demand for the latest technology for streamlining the administrative process in dental clinics and hospitals is expected to drive the demand for Dental Practice Management (DPM) software. This trend is further supported by various government initiatives in both the U.S. and European countries, contributing to the overall market growth.

European countries are also undertaking several initiatives to promote oral healthcare services and healthcare IT. According to the report by the Platform for Better Oral Health in Europe, in 2020, an estimated USD 12.39 billion (EUR 11.67 billion) was spent on oral healthcare services in France. Hence, owing to rising government expenditure and greater demand for dental care in the country, the number of dental clinics is steadily increasing. Some of the noticeable initiatives include e-Card (Austria); Interoperable Delivery of European eGovernment Services to Public Administrations, Businesses, and Citizens (IDABC); Norwegian Healthcare System (Norway); Sentillion; Imprivata; Elektronische Gesundheitskarte (Germany); CAREfx; HealthCast, Inc.; IBM Tivoli Access Manager; and Sense.

Moreover, several companies are engaging in partnerships, mergers, acquisitions, and expansion strategies to enhance their market position. For instance, in September 2022, CD Newco, LLC (Curve Dental) partnered with Dental Whale, a prominent practice solution and learning provider in North America. This partnership will provide dental practices with access to various solutions & resources to enhance their operations and improve patient care.
