Electronic apex locators [PDF]
International Endodontic Journal, 2004 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.

Dental Clinics of North America, 2004 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.
