According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Dental Amalgam Capsules market size was valued at US$ 56.39 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 38.54 million by 2032 with a CAGR of -5.1% during review period.
In 2025, global Dental Amalgam Capsules production reached approximately 62 tons, with an average global market price of around US$884 per kilogram. Dental amalgam capsule is a mixture of metals, consisting of liquid (elemental) mercury and a powdered alloy composed of silver, tin, and copper.
The global dental amalgam capsules market shows a clear contraction trend driven by both global environmental policies and public health priorities. The Minamata Convention on Mercury, a legally binding international treaty, has established a framework for the global phase-down of dental amalgam. The World Health Organization, in its Global Oral Health Action Plan 2023-2030, further sets a target that 90% of countries will implement measures to phase down or eliminate the use of dental amalgam by 2030. The European Union, as a policy pioneer, has formulated a strict phase-out schedule. From January 1, 2025, the use and export of dental amalgam are prohibited, with only exemptions for specific medical needs. From July 1, 2026, the production and import of dental amalgam will be completely banned, and some member states have obtained limited transition periods to adapt their healthcare systems. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, although not implementing a comprehensive ban, has issued usage recommendations for high-risk groups such as pregnant women, children, and people with impaired kidney function, recommending the priority selection of mercury-free alternative materials.
The market competition landscape has undergone significant adjustments with policy changes. Many large international dental material companies have voluntarily withdrawn from dental amalgam capsule production. The market share of remaining manufacturers is relatively concentrated, and most enterprises have shifted their R&D resources to the development and commercialization of mercury-free alternative materials. Market development in different regions shows obvious differentiation. In developed countries, driven by policies, the usage of dental amalgam capsules has declined rapidly, and mercury-free composite materials have occupied a dominant position. In developing countries, affected by factors such as economic development level and accessibility of medical resources, the phase-out process is relatively slow, and dental amalgam capsules still have certain application space in primary medical scenarios. In the future, with the improvement of global environmental awareness and technological progress of alternative materials, the dental amalgam capsules market will continue to shrink, and mercury-free dental restorative materials will become the mainstream direction of industry development.
