Abstract: Computer-aided design and manufacturing technology has been closely associated with implant-supported restoration. The digital systems which are used for restorative purposes comprise data acquisition, processing, and manufacturing using subtractive or additive methods. Advancements in digital dentistry are closely related to developments in optical scanning, computer-based digital algorithms and fabricating techniques in terms of accuracy and reliability which helped the development of novel ceramic materials with high esthetics and strength for versatile clinical applications. Time efficiency, cost effectivity, durability and biomimetic properties of machine-made restorations necessitate monolithic materials to serve this purpose. Contemporary ceramic materials are being widely used for rehabilitation of dentition from a single unit to full arch cases. This review aims to give an insight about optical properties and clinical use of monolithic materials.
