Based on product, the oral care market is segmented into toothpastes, toothbrushes, mouthwashes, and other oral care products. In 2025, the toothpastes segment is expected to account for the largest share of 36.7% of the oral care market. Toothpaste is available in various forms, such as gels, pastes, powders, and other forms, and is used to clean the teeth and maintain the oral aesthetics of the mouth. The large share of this segment is attributed to factors such as rising awareness of oral health, a shift in the use of herbal and natural products as compared to chemical-based products, a growing number of market players, growing cases of dental caries and gum diseases, and awareness about oral hygiene.
By age group, the oral care market is segmented into adults and children. In 2025, the adults segment is expected to account for a larger share of the oral care market. The large number of adults using oral care products is a key factor supporting the segment's largest share. The high prevalence of gum problems in adults and high awareness of maintaining oral care among adults are also supporting the segment's largest share. Adults tend to visit dental practitioners often compared to children. Adults have easy access to resources about oral health and hygiene compared to children. Websites, articles, and social media platforms offer educational content on dental care, including the benefits of using toothpaste, recommended oral hygiene practices, and tips for maintaining healthy teeth and gums.
By end users, the oral care market is segmented into supermarkets/hypermarkets, pharmacies, oral care clinics, and online channels. In 2025, the supermarket/hypermarkets segment is expected to account for the largest share of 38.1% of the market. Supermarkets/hypermarkets are self-service stores that offer a wide variety of products, including oral care. The large share of the segment is attributed to factors such as the increasing number of stores, easy accessibility and availability of oral care products, reasonable price ranges, and greater frequency of offers and discounts.
An in-depth geographic analysis of the industry provides detailed qualitative and quantitative insights into the five major regions (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa) and the coverage of major countries in each region. Asia-Pacific is projected to register the fastest growth rate during the forecast period of 2025– 2032. The region's large and rapidly growing population, particularly in countries like China and India, contributes significantly to the rising demand for oral care products. Urbanization and increasing awareness of oral hygiene, supported by government initiatives and educational campaigns, are further accelerating market expansion. Additionally, a growing middle class with rising disposable incomes is fueling the demand for both basic and premium oral care products, including electric toothbrushes, whitening treatments, and herbal formulations. The proliferation of modern retail infrastructure and e-commerce platforms has improved product accessibility across urban and rural areas alike.
Furthermore, major global and regional market players are investing heavily in local manufacturing and distribution networks to meet the increasing demand and reduce operational costs. Aging populations in countries such as Japan and South Korea are also creating a niche demand for specialized oral care solutions. Collectively, these factors make Asia-Pacific the most dynamic and promising region for growth in the global oral care market over the forecast period.
