Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, has become one of the pillars of digital technology in the dental field of prosthodontics. With the burgeoning development in preexisting AM technology and the evolution of new techniques, which are concurrent with the development of printable biomaterials, the application range of the technology has broadened from the construction of diagnostic models to more complex applications such as maxillofacial prosthetics and implant planning. A full understanding of the technology and its related fabrication parameters will enable the maximum benefit from such technology. Therefore, the aim of this review is to represent a range of AM technologies so that prosthodontists and dental technicians can evaluate more closely the advantages and disadvantages of each technique, the application of technology in the field of prosthodontics, areas of current research in the field, and recommendations for areas of future research.
