Computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology has revolutionized the prosthodontic field by offering unprecedented precision and efficiency in the fabrication of dental restorations. Among the different materials used in CAD/CAM dentistry, ceramics have emerged as a chief choice because of their good esthetics, biocompatibility, and enhanced mechanical properties. This review explores the basic principles of CAD/CAM technology and their role in the digital workflow of prosthodontic restorations. It also explains the characteristic features of ceramics which are suitable for CAD/CAM fabrication.
