Comparison of Working Length Determination Using Apex Locator and Conventional Radiography in Curved Canals-an In Vitro Study
Introduction: The exact measurement of the root canal length is of great importance in root canal therapy. Although, determination of the root canal length through radiography is the most common method, recently electronic apex locators are being used to determine working length and decrease the number of radiographs. The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of an electronic apex l...
متن کاملComparison of working length determination using apex locator, conventional radiography and radiovisiography: an in vitro study.
AIM The purpose of this study was to compare the working length determination done using three methods, namely, apex locator (Foramatron D-10, Parkell), radiovisiography (Planmeca) and conventional radiography (Prostyle intra, Planmeca). MATERIALS AND METHODS In this experiment, to determine the working length, 35 single-rooted teeth were selected and each tooth was subjected to all the three...
متن کاملAn in vivo study of working length determination with a new apex locator.
The success of an endodontic treatment relies on a correct working length determination. The canal terminus must be detected accurately and a precise control of the working length during the endodontic treatment must be maintained. The aim of this study was to investigate the working length determination in vivo with the Quill Apex Locator® for apical limit established at 1 mm short from the ap...
متن کاملAccuracy of an Electronic Apex Locator for Working Length Determination in Primary Anterior Teeth
OBJECTIVES Correct determination of working length is an important step for success of endodontic therapy. Conventional radiography has limitations in providing the accurate location of apical foramen. For this reason, electronic apex locators (EALs) were developed to shorten the treatment time and decrease the radiation dose. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of Root ZX EAL fo...
