The global oral irrigator market size is expected to reach USD 1,450.1 million by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc.., expanding at a CAGR of 4.9% from 2023 to 2030. The main factors driving this market are the rising incidence of dental diseases such as periodontitis and dental carries, increasing awareness regarding the use of technologically advanced products, the ready availability of oral irrigators, and several initiatives taken by various government agencies and dental organizations.
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the market growth. All dental, medical, and surgical procedures that are nonessential and elective were postponed in the first and second quarters of 2020. Oral examinations, routine cleaning, preventive therapies, and orthodontic procedures that do not involve pain management were postponed. This negatively impacted the global dental market and successively impacted the market for oral irrigators. Dental services were among the last to relaunch post-pandemic relaxations as dental procedures have a high risk of transmission.
As oral irrigators are more expensive than conventional floss, their market expansion is being constrained. Nevertheless, it is believed that the value benefits provided by manufacturers in exchange for the promotion of technologically advanced items will lessen the impact of high costs and boost consumer acceptance of these products. This may influence people's preferences to change from utilizing conventional flossing techniques to effective oral irrigators.
