Περίληψη: Introduction: The aim of this study was to understand the trends of teaching Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) in the undergraduate dental curriculum in the MENA region by conducting an online survey among the undergraduate dental colleges in this region. Materials and Methods: An online survey was conducted using Google Forms consisting of 20 questions that could be answered by "yes" or "no" responses, multiple‐choice answers or in a descriptive, "open" format. A total of 55 participants from the MENA region representing their dental college were requested to participate in this study. Results: The response rate of the survey was 85.5% following the twofold follow‐up reminders method. Although the vast majority of professors demonstrated vital knowledge in the practical use of CAD/CAM, the majority of them did not provide theoretical and practical training on CAD/CAM in their institutions. Among the schools with established levels of teaching CAD/CAM, nearly 50% of them provide both pre‐clinical and clinical training on CAD/CAM. Despite the availability of extra‐curricular training courses on CAD/CAM outside the university setting, there is a lack of advocating for students to enrol in those courses by the institutions. More than 80% of the participants agreed that CAD/CAM has a strong future in chair‐side dental clinics and CAD/CAM needs to be incorporated within undergraduate studies. Conclusion: Based on the results of the current study, it is understandable that an intervention is required by the dental education providers to cope with the growing demand for CAD/CAM technology for the current and future dental practitioners of the MENA region.
