The entire canal is not filled, because there is to be a post set in it. Next the shortened wire was reinserted and an- Tig. 169. other radiograph (Fig. 169) made. This shows that my judgment in cutting off the wire in this particular case was unusually good. The wire reaches just to the apex. It may be necessary to make two or three trials before the wire is placed just to the apex. With the length of the wire as a guide to t
