 With the passing years and the perpetual development in research, emerged an array of options in dentistry. The contemporary dental practice with endless options can preserve the oral health by reducing the treatment time, minimizing errors and improving quality. Continuous technological progress in dental–faication processes ensures new opportunities in clinical workflow. There is an endless scope of digitisation in Prosthodontics – let it be in the diagnostic and treatment procedures like the use of digital radiographs, virtual articulators, T–scan, joint viation analysis, digital photographs and casts, digital surveying, digital impressions or in the clinical and lab procedures like use of CAD–CAM technology, stereolithography and  rapid prototyping, digital shade guides, digital smile designing, audiovisual aids,…the list remains endless. This article reviews various aspects of Prosthodontics where digitization has modified the conventional procedures. For discussion they have been considered under diagnostics and  treatment procedures, clinical and laboratory procedures.
