The global oral appliances market size is expected to reach USD 1.4 billion by 2030, at a projected CAGR of 5.72% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is driven by rising awareness of sleep disorders, such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and the growing preference for non-invasive treatment options. Technological advancements, including custom 3D printing and integration with digital health tools, enhance the effectiveness and comfort of these devices. Increasing demand for alternatives to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy and supportive regulatory environments also contribute to market expansion.

Increasing awareness about sleep disorders and their impact on overall health has further driven demand for effective solutions like MADs. These devices are specifically designed to address obstructive sleep apnea and snoring by advancing the lower jaw to maintain an open airway during sleep. In addition, the growing preference for non-invasive treatment options over more cumbersome alternatives, such as CPAP machines, has bolstered MAD adoption. Technological advancements have significantly improved the comfort, effectiveness, and customization of these devices. Moreover, rising disposable income and expanded healthcare coverage have made MADs more accessible to a broader population, further contributing to market growth.

The transition from PAP devices to oral appliances is driven by a combination of enhanced comfort, ease of use, positive clinical outcomes, and patient satisfaction. Feedback from lapsed PAP users highlights the effectiveness of oral appliances in improving sleep quality and overall user experience. This shift indicates a strong user preference for oral appliances, contributing to their increasing market adoption. These insights provide a solid foundation for understanding the adoption trends and patient preferences in the market.

• Trend Insight: One of the primary reasons lapsed PAP (Positive Airway Pressure) users are transitioning to oral appliances is the comfort and convenience offered by these devices. Unlike PAP machines, which can be bulky and uncomfortable, oral appliances are compact and easier to wear.

• Instance: A study published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine highlighted that over 60% of former PAP users reported improved comfort and ease of use with oral appliances. This shift is particularly notable among patients who experienced discomfort or intolerance with PAP masks.

Furthermore, the growing awareness and accessibility contribute to the market growth. There is a growing awareness of oral appliances as a viable alternative to PAP devices. This is coupled with increased accessibility due to advancements in dental technology and more dental practitioners offering these solutions. For instance, according to a survey by the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine, there has been a 35% increase in the number of dental practices offering oral appliance therapy over the past five years. This surge has facilitated easier access for patients seeking alternatives to PAP therapy.
