Aug 21, 2018 . Apex locators are electronic instruments used in endodontics that measure the impedance, frequency and resistance of the surrounding material in order to locate the working length of the root canal to be endodontized. Correct determination of tooth length is a crucial factor for the success of endodontic therapy.

Apex Locators are the instruments used in Endodontics to determine the Working length in Root Canal Treatment as an adjunct to Radiography. They are used to locate the Apical foramen by determining the Apical constriction or Cementodentinal junction. These are divided into 4 types based on the way the apex is located Classification of Apex [&hellip

Mar 08, 2018 . Let’s sum it up! I am a firm believer in patency, and your apex locator is your tool to help you achieve that patency. An outcome study 1 found that, in any tooth with apical periodontitis, if you are short by one millimeter, that this reduces your success rate by 14%. That is huge! So don’t be lazy, and get to 0.0 — and if it means that you need to bring the patient …

Electronic apex locators use an electrical circuit through the patient's root canal and oral tissues to determine the location of the apical foramen. The electrical circuit is completed when the instrument is inserted into the root canal in the apical direction and touches the periodontal tissues.

Sep 13, 2007 . When using an apex locator on a tooth having a metallic restoration (PFM, gold crown, or a large alloy), the apex locator will often give an inaccurate reading. An easy solution is to insulate the file from the metal filling or crown by placing a plastic bur sleeve just below the rubber stopper on the file. This is a great trick!

Modern electronic apex locators can determine lengths with accuracies greater than 90%, but have some limitations such as the need to minimize substances inside the duct, duct shape, etc.. The use of apex locators does not have satisfactory results in immature teeth with open apexes.
Make sure that you are getting your initial reading by taking your file a little long to read the PDL, then back up your file short of working length, then re-advance it to your zero zero. This will “calibrate” your apex locator and will give you a more accurate reading. If playback doesn't begin shortly, try restarting your device.
Electronic apex locators have been shown to be more accurate than radiography when determining the position of the apical foramen.
