12 words - 7 tiles

The longest answer is INCISED at 7 letters, a pangram that uses every tile on the wheel - place it first and the crossing letters pull the shorter fills out almost automatically.
Watch the tiles: INCISED / INDICES are anagrams, and the grid takes each in its own slot. If this is not your board, the letter search identifies any level from its tiles.

Yes - INCISED / INDICES and DENS / ENDS / SEND and DICE / ICED use identical tiles in different orders, and the grid accepts each only in its own slot. If one is rejected, swap it into the other position.
Why does longest-first solving work in Wordscapes?
The longest answer occupies the biggest slot in the crossword grid and crosses more other words than any shorter fill. Placing it first reveals crossing letters that narrow every shorter slot to one or two candidates. After the anchor is set, most remaining words drop in without trial and error - on this level the anchor is INCISED, so starting there is the fastest route through the board.
