In this study, 24 curved resin blocks were prepared by one of the following four methods: 1) Conventional technique using K-flexo files 2) Step-back technique using K-flexo files 3) Crown-down technique using K-flexo files 4) Canal Master instrumentation using Canal Master Resin blocks were sectioned, photographed, and evaluated the mean centering ratio and the mean area of dentin removed before and after the instrumentation. The results were as follows : I. the mean centering ratio 1. In the level 1 and level 3, there was no significant difference in the mean centering ratio. 2. In the level 2, Step-back technique showed the worst mean centering ratio among the tested groups(p<0.001) and there was no significant difference between the other three groups. 3. In the level 4, Canal Master instrumentation and Step-back technique showed better mean centering ratio than the other two techniques(p<0.001) and there was no significant difference between the two techniques. II. the mean area of dentin removed 1. In the level l and level 3, there was no significant difference in the mean area of dentin removed. 2. In the level 2, Canal Master instrumentation removed less dentin than the other three techniques(P<0.01). 3. In the level 4, Crown-down technique removed less dentin than the other three techniques(P<0.05).
