   Overfilling denotes “total obturation of the root canal space with excess material extruding beyond the apical foramen.” Overextension, on the other hand, may also denote extrusion of filling material beyond the apical foramen but with the caveat that the canal has not been adequately filled and the apex has not been sealed Underfilling refers to the incomplete filling of the canal space Underextension refers to the vertical extent of the filling material regardless of its completeness of obturation.
