Dental insurance market forecasted 9.3% annual growth through 2034

Employers are also expanding coverage to reduce out-of-pocket costs.

The global dental insurance market was valued at $ 231.92b in 2024 and is projected to reach $ 472.38b by 2034, growing at a compound annual rate of 9.3%, according to Zion Market Research.

Growth is being driven by rising oral disease prevalence, an aging population, and higher treatment costs. 

More people are turning to insurance to manage expenses for both preventive and complex procedures, from routine cleanings to implants and orthodontics.

Demand is particularly strong amongst older adults in North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, where insurers are rolling out senior-specific plans to meet long-term oral health needs. 

Employers are also expanding coverage to reduce out-of-pocket costs, reinforcing the sector’s growth outlook.
