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.

Accuracy of electronic apex locater-controlled handpieces

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology, and Endodontology, 2009
An in vitro model was used to test a hypothesis that the manual (apex locator) and motor-driven (apex locator-controlled handpiece) operating modes of 3 newly developed apex-locator-controlled handpiece devices (Dentaport ZX, Endomaster, XSmart Dual) give the same working length.

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.

Determination of location of root perforations by electronic apex locators

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology, and Endodontology, 1996
This study was conducted to evaluate the accuracy of two electronic apex locators, the Sono Explorer Mark 2 Junior (Hakusui, Osaka, Japan) and Apit 2 (Osada, Tokyo, Japan) in detecting root perforations. The adequacy of radiographs for identifying root perforations was also assessed.Thirty-two extracted human teeth were perforated in the middle third ...

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 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 overview of electronic apex locators: part 1

British Dental Journal, 2013
To effectively carry out root canal therapy, the clinician must accurately determine the apical limit of the root canal system as well as the position of the canal terminus. Its position can be estimated using a variety of techniques, including radiographs, tactile feedback from endodontic instruments and electronic apex locators.

Clinical Efficacy of Electronic Apex Locators: Systematic Review

Journal of Endodontics, 2014
Apical constriction has been proposed as the most appropriate apical limit for the endodontic working length. Despite being the most used, some limitations are attributed to the radiographic method of working length determination. It lacks precision because it is based on the average position of the apical constriction.
