The digital revolution in dentistry has allowed for nearly all clinical and laboratory procedures to be supported by digital technologies. The aim of this paper is to understand the role of Industry 4.0 in the profession of dentistry and identify its research status today and in the future. Methods. An electronic search of Medline literature was performed via PubMed and Google Scholar databases with the terms ?fourth industrial revolution,? ?digital dentistry,? ?dentistry 4.0,? ?CAD-CAM.? The option ?related articles? was also utilized as well as an additional manual search of review articles and the most relevant papers. Results. The paper describes the most frequently used diagnostic and therapeutic procedures supported by digital technologies. Conclusion. The sophisticated technologies of the Fourth Industrial Revolution have led to more rapid and precise diagnoses of oral diseases. Clinical procedures have become easier, more precise and predictable to the dentist and more comfortable to the patient.
