After endodontic access preparation, root canals were irrigated with physiological saline solution. The access cavities were dried with cotton pellets and, the roots were dried with paper points before performing the electronic measurement. The root canal length measurements were first taken with an apex locater (EndoMaster), and then, a size \u266f 15\u00a0K\u2010file was inserted into the root canal, and radiography was taken to determine the working length measurements.
