In Vivo Evaluation of ProPex Electronic Apex Locator

Journal of Endodontics, 2007
The aim of this in vivo study was to evaluate the performance of ProPex apex locator after extirpation and in presence of different irrigation solutions: 2.5% NaOCl, 0.9% NaCl, and 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate solutions. Twenty-seven single-rooted human teeth scheduled for extraction with mature apices were selected for this study.

Comparative evaluation of the final working length using apex locator, endomotor integrated apex locator and radiography

Baba Farid University Dental Journal, 2022
To compare the efficacy of three different methods for determining working length measurements of root canals. A total of 90 patients with 90 teeth having single canals were randomly divided into three groups. In group 1, the WL was determined by WL radiograph, whereas in group 2 and 3, it was determined by EAL and endomotor integrated apex locator ...

In Vitro Comparison of Three Electronic Apex Locators

Journal of Endodontics, 2010
The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of the Root ZX II Apex Locator (RZX), the Elements Apex Locator (ELE), and the Precision Apex Locator (PAL).Forty single-rooted extracted teeth were decoronated and the root canals coronally flared.

An in vitro comparison of two modern apex locators

Journal of Endodontics, 1999
Two apex locators were compared regarding their ability to accurately locate the apical constriction in the presence of various canal fluids at different meter readings. Forty-one root canals were filled with 1% NaOCl, 3% H2O2, and 0.9% NaCl, respectively.

Investigation of Apex Locators and Related Morphological Factors

Journal of Endodontics, 2010
The purpose of this study was to investigate the ability of three electronic apex locators (EALs) to detect the minor foramen and morphological influencing factors relative to working length determination.Three hundred fifty-six extracted teeth were decoronated, and the coronal portion of the canal was flared. The distance between the major foramen and

An in vivo comparative study of two apex locators

Journal of Endodontics, 1994
Two different electronic apex locators were used before extraction to determine working length in 116 root canals belonging to 34 molars. The results were then compared with postextraction working length measurements. The determinations were made before and after eliminating the canal contents and drying the interior.

An overview of electronic apex locators: part 2

British Dental Journal, 2013
A number of electronic apex locators are available for use during endodontic treatment. The use of third and fourth generation electronic apex locators (EAL) are recommended to help clinicians determine the apical limit of the root canal system (RCS). The presence of different irrigating media in the RCS does not impact significantly on the performance

An in vivo evaluation of Endex electronic apex locator

Journal of Endodontics, 1993
Because of technical problems and hazards of radiation, dentists have desired alternative ways to determine the working length during root canal therapy. Attention has turned to electronic devices for measuring root canal length. Several such devices are now available.

Clinical reproducibility of three electronic apex locators.

International endodontic journal, 2011
To compare the reproducibility of three electronic apex locators (EALs), Dentaport ZX, RomiApex A-15 and Raypex 5, under clinical conditions.Forty-eight root canals of incisors, canines and premolars with or without radiographically confirmed periapical lesions required root canal treatment in 42 patients.

A clinical evaluation of the Endocater—An electronic apex locator

Journal of Endodontics, 1991
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of an electronic apex locator, the Endocater, in determining the location of the apical constriction or cementodentinal junction (CDJ). Measurements made by the Endocater were also compared with the adjustments recommended by an experienced endodontist.
