Root canal therapy comprises 3 main steps- access preparation, biomechanical preparation, and 3Dobturation. During this process, debris is pushed out from the canals causing inter-appointment flare-ups andpostoperative pain.Materials And Method: 60 extracted mandibular premolars with straight single canal were selected; the Eppendorftubes were pre-weighted before instrumentation and were allocated into 3 groups along with the sample teeth.All thesamples were instrumented with 3 single file systems i.e. Oneshape, Reciproc, and WaveOne Gold, and debris wascollectedintheEppendorftubes.Thedebriscollectedwasweighedinananalyticalbalancetodeterminetheextrudeddebris.Results: The results of this study showed that WaveOne Gold resulted in the least amount of periapical debris extrusionwhile Reciproc extruded the maximum amount of debris as compared with other file systems.Conclusions: A thorough comparison of various systems in the extrusion of debris may be beneficial so that the bestmethod with the lowest incidence of extrusion may be selected.
