Comparative analysis of root canal length determination using cone-beam computerized tomography and apex locator [PDF]
Introduction Determining the length of the root canal is one of the key factors that can affect the outcome of endodontic therapy. Incorrectly determined working length results in underfilled or overfilled canal.

Electronic apex locators [PDF]
AbstractPrior to root canal treatment at least one undistorted radiograph is required to assess canal morphology. The apical extent of instrumentation and the final root filling have a role in treatment success, and are primarily determined radiographically.

Locating the appropriate apical position always has been a challenge in clinical endodontics. The electronic apex locator (EAL) is used for working length determination as an important adjunct to radiography. The EAL helps to reduce the treatment time and the radiation dose, which may be higher with conventional radiographic measurements.
