25
A radiograph should be taken before burning the gutta percha tree off to avoid
Underfill, overfill, voids
26
Larger files have
Increased stiffness and decreased flexibility
27
Canal transportation results in
Straightening out the canal

29
The worst prognosis of a RCT is associated with
Strip perforation
30
Which of the following does not necessarily require an incident report
Canal transportation
31
One of the reasons that would not cause blocking out is
