A dental alloy contains palladium (Pd) and indium (In) for CAD/CAM machining. The dental alloy can further include one component selected from the group consisting of gold (Au), silver (Ag), nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co), and platinum (Pt). The dental alloy has a yield strength of 250 MPa to 450 MPa, breaking elongation of 2% to 8%, metal-ceramic adhesion of 20 MPa to 70 MPa, coefficient of linear thermal expansion of 14.0×10−6/K to 17.0×10−6/K, or density of 8 g/cm3 to 15 g/cm3.
