An in vivo evaluation of Root ZX electronic apex locator.
The Root ZX has been introduced recently as a device capable of performing accurately in the presence of sodium hypochlorite, blood, water, local anesthetic, and pulpal tissues. The Root ZX was used to locate the apical foramen in 26 root canals of vital teeth. After extraction of the teeth, a stereomicroscope was used to confirm visually the relationship of the tip of the endodontic file to th...
متن کاملA Comparative Evaluation of Accuracy of the Root Zx Electronic Apex Locator in the Presence of Different Irrigants
Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of Root ZX in determining working length in presence of 2% chlorhexidine and 5% sodium hypochlorite. Material and Methods: Thirty extracted, single rooted, single canal human teeth were used. Teeth were decoronated at CEJ and actual canal length determined. Then working length measurements were obtained with Root ZX in presence of 2% ...
متن کاملA Comparative Evaluation of Accuracy of New-generation Electronic Apex Locator with Conventional Radiography to determine Working Length in Primary Teeth: An in vivo Study
AIMS The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of a new-generation electronic apex locator (iPex) to determine working length in primary teeth with or without root resorption as compared with the conventional radiographic method. MATERIALS AND METHODS A sample of 30 primary posterior teeth which are indicated for pulpectomy were selected for the study. After obtaining the informe...
متن کاملa comparative evaluation of working length with digital radiography and third generation apex locator (propex) in the presence of various intracanal irrigants: an in vivo/ex vivo study
background: accurate working length determination is a pre-requisite for a successful endodontic treatment. even with improved systems of working length measurement, different readings may be recorded in different electrolytes present in the canal. the purpose of this in vivo/ex vivo comparative study was to determine the accuracy in measuring the working length of root canal using direct digit...
متن کاملA comparative assessment of the accuracy of electronic apex locator (Root ZX) in the presence of commonly used irrigating solutions
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of Root ZX in determining working length in presence of normal saline, 0.2% chlorhexidine and 2.5% of sodium hypochlorite. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixty extracted, single rooted, single canal human teeth were used. Teeth were decoronated at CEJ and actual canal length determined. Then working length measurements were obtained with Root ZX in p...
