Artificial Saliva Market Report 2024

The artificial saliva market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.72 billion in 2023 to $1.95 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.6%. Historical growth can be ascribed to increasing demand for oral sprays, gels, and liquids, broadening treatment options for cancer patients, a growing elderly population, rising disposable incomes, and an increase in dental disorders globally.

The artificial saliva market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.27 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.8%. Forecasted growth can be attributed to heightened awareness of oral hygiene importance, the rising prevalence of dry mouth syndrome (xerostomia), growing demand for artificial saliva, increasing cancer incidences and chemotherapy treatments. Key trends in the forecast period include expanded research and development efforts, advancements in product formulation, integration of advanced technologies, technological innovations in dry mouth treatments, and a shift towards natural and biocompatible ingredients.

The increasing prevalence of dry mouth syndrome is expected to drive growth in the artificial saliva market. Dry mouth syndrome, or xerostomia, is characterized by persistent mouth dryness, exacerbated by factors such as aging and the widespread use of medications. Artificial saliva helps moisturize oral tissues, alleviating the discomfort associated with xerostomia. For instance, a study by Faculdade Meridional found a 19.1% prevalence of xerostomia among 293 older adults in Brazil in 2021. Similarly, research by the University of Gothenburg reported a 43.6% prevalence among 374 adult patients seeking primary healthcare in 2022. These trends underscore the role of rising xerostomia cases in fueling demand for artificial saliva.

Leading companies in the artificial saliva market are focusing on enhancing products with mucin to improve effectiveness in managing dry mouth. These formulations closely mimic natural saliva properties, providing superior relief. For example, Pickering Laboratories launched a 950 mL size Artificial Saliva with Mucin in October 2021, featuring a mineral composition and pH similar to human saliva, with added mucin for viscosity and lubrication. This stabilized solution, suitable for various applications including dental and pharmaceutical studies, remains effective at room temperature due to a built-in preservative.
