Abstract
A method of generating a 3D model for digital dentistry using a virtual bridge based multi input Boolean operation, includes generating a first group model by generating a first virtual bridge connecting models spaced apart from each other among first input models of a first input group when the models are spaced apart from each other among the first input models, generating a second group model by generating a second virtual bridge connecting models spaced apart from each other among second input models of a second input group when the models are spaced apart from each other among the second input models, generating a first result model by a Boolean operation of the first group model and the second group model and removing a remaining first virtual bridge or a remaining second virtual bridge when the first virtual bridge or the second virtual bridge remains in the first result model.
