During root canal procedures, apex locators are used to act as a second step measure in verifying the quality of our work. They help ensure that the service being provided is at a high standard resulting in exceptional dental outcomes with good longevity. Apex locators use electrical impedance technology to give an accurate reading of the length of a tooth root.
What is an Apex Locator?
An Apex Locator is an electronic device used to determine the length of the root canal space. It allows a more accurate reading and higher quality work.
You may notice that the Apex Locator will make a beep, buzz sound or flash a light. This indicates to the dentist that the device has measured the length of the root canal.
