Zusammenfassung:This study aimed to evaluate the use of a single-file reciprocating system on the technical quality of root canal filling and treatment by radiographic assessment of cases treated by undergraduate dental students. This was a retrospective cross-sectional clinical study of endodontically treatments conducted by fourth-year undergraduate students during the academic year 2021–2022. Root canal preparation was performed using the WaveOne Gold system with matching single-cone gutta-percha. The collected data included sex, tooth position, number of canals, and treatment time (first or second semester). The quality of the root canal filling was assessed based on the root canal filling length, density, and taper. The presence of ledges, apical transportation, perforation, and instrument separation were recorded. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 28. Chi-square tests were used, and the statistical significance level was set at P
