Primary functions of dental liners include dental sealing, pulpal protection, thermal insulation, and stimulation of secondary dentine formation. Dental bases, on the other hand, are primarily used to provide pulpal protection through thermal insulation. They are further used to mark out undercut areas for indirect restorations with gold or composite inlays. Dental liners and bases are important parts of dental caries management. Several dental liners/base materials are used, including zinc oxide eugenol, glass ionomer, and resin-modified glass ionomers.
This market is majorly driven by increase in population, rise in dental caries & procedures among the population due to unhealthy food consumption such as acidic foods, and chemical-based foods, which increase the chances of having cavities and further requiring root canals. Furthermore, increase in the incidences of periodontics diseases among young adults and increase in demand for stem cell tooth regeneration techniques, particularly among the geriatric population are the factors that are expected to increase the demand for liners and bases.
For instance, in April 2019, GC America Inc., a subsidiary of GC Corporation launched bioactive restorative, GC Fuji Automix LC in Canada. It is a radiopaque resin-reinforced glass ionomer with a high fluoride release in a simple delivery system. It is suitable for primary tooth restoration, permanent class III and V restorations, core build up, and as a base or liner beneath composite restorations. Thus, launch of such products further boost the market growth.
Market players have invested in developing dental liners/bases products that can aid in several dental restoration treatment methods. For instance, Kerr Corporation offers calcium hydroxide-based cavity (dental) liner, which is designed for direct pulp capping from mechanical exposure when root canal treatment is denied by patient. Moreover, 3M offers various glass ionomers based products such as the 3M Vitrebond Light Cure Glass Ionomer Liner/Base Intro Kit, 3M Ketac Universal Glass Ionomer Restorative, Intro Kit. These wide range of products offering by market players have further increased the accessibility of dental liners/bases across different regions, fueling the market growth
In addition, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2020, many countries face a significant health burden from oral diseases, which affect people throughout their lives, causing pain, discomfort, disfigurement, and even death. Oral diseases are estimated to affect nearly 3.5 billion people. Severe periodontal (gum) disease, which can lead to tooth loss, is also very common, affecting nearly 10% of the global population. Furthermore, according to the Statistics Canada, as part of the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) in 2019, overall 74.7% of Canadians reported that they visited a dental professional in the past year. Thus, the aforementioned factors are anticipated to increase the demand of dental liners and bases thus contributing toward the market growth.
However, risk of infections associated with dental pulp in dental restoration procedures and preference for endodontic treatment over tooth restoration are the factors that restrain the market growth. Furthermore, presence of a plethora of products in the pipeline and high market potential in untapped emerging economies are anticipated to serve as attractive opportunities for market growth during the forecast period. Moreover, growth in dental tourism in developing economies, various initiatives taken by the government and key players for increasing the awareness toward oral healthcare, and various free campaigns significantly propel the growth of the market.

Executive Summary
According to a new report titled, Dental Liners and Bases Market by Material and End User: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021–2030, the global dental liners and bases market size was valued at $1,322.64 million in 2020, and is projected to reach $1,995.14 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 4.1% during the forecast period.Dental liners are composed of materials that can be applied in thin layers over exposed dentine during cavity preparation that can reduce or completely avoid the influx of bacteria and irritants from restorative procedures Dental bases, on the other hand, are made from materials that can be applied to the floor of the cavity preparation in a relatively thicker consistency.
Dentists use dental liners/bases to improve the outcome of dental caries treatment as well as other dental restoration procedures. Dental material manufacturers are constantly introducing new versions of existing products (including the addition of polymers and silver in the prime material) and research is being conducted to assess the efficacy of these newly introduced dental liners/bases. As the number of dental restoration procedures has increased, so has the demand for new dental liners/bases materials. Furthermore, bactericidal dental liners/bases materials have experienced increase in demand over the years, which is expected to propel the market growth.
The growth of the dental liners and bases market is majorly driven due to rise in prevalence of dental caries across the globe mainly due to consumption of unhealthy acidic food, sweets, and reduction in oral care. Furthermore, rise in geriatric population, growth in number of patients especially children with dental caries significantly boost the market growth.
Furthermore, according to the World Health Organization (WHO) report from 2021, 1 in every 6 people globally will be 60 or older by 2030. This proportion of the population aged 60 and beyond is expected to rise from 1 billion in 2020 to 1.4 billion by 2050. Thus, escalating geriatric population will generate more demand for dental liners and bases as dental caries tends to increase in old age.
Moreover, in 2021, Prevest DenPro Limited launched calcium hydroxide cavity liners, which are used in dental filing materials, cements, and other base materials as a direct or indirect pulp capping agent and as a protective liner. It has no side effect on composite filling material polymerization. Thus, launch of such products is expected to drive the market.
However, risk of infections associated with the dental pulp in dental restoration procedures and side effects associated with the reinforced materials for the development of dental liners/bases are expected to impede the dental liners and bases market growth. Conversely, high market potential in the untapped emerging economies, rise in various product launches, partnerships, collaborations among the government & key players, and development of pipeline products are expected to provide many opportunities for market growth during the forecast period.
By material type, the market is segmented into zinc oxide eugenol, glass ionomer, resin-modified glass ionomers, and others. The zinc oxide eugenol segment generated maximum revenue in 2020, accounting $527.28 million. The resin-modified glass ionomers segment is expected to witness highest CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period.
On the basis of end user, the market is segmented into hospitals, dental clinics, and research & academic institutes. The dental clinics segment generated maximum revenue in 2020, accounting $671.31 million. The research & academic institutes segment is expected to witness highest CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period.
North America accounted for a majority of the global dental liners and bases market share in 2020, and is anticipated to remain dominant during the forecast period. This is attributed to increase in prevalence of dental caries, surge in patients demanding premium quality & high-priced dental restoration products, presence of key players, and rise in healthcare expenditure in the region. However, Asia-Pacific is anticipated to witness notable growth, owing to high population base, increase in disposable income, and improvement in patient awareness towards dental hygiene & dental restoration procedures.
