IDENTIFICATION OF THE EQUIPMENT
Equipment Description
The Apex locator Endus is a high precision electronic equipment, modern and that should
be used in endodontics to help with canal treatments.
It's used to measure the precise tooth length - (It determines the length of work) – up
to where the instrumentation and filling of a tooth will take place, so that the endodontic
treatment respects the biological limits of the dental structure.
Main aspects:
• Indicates precisely the cement dental junction.
• It is not subject to interference from the anatomic structures adjacent to the tooth.
Therefore, the fact of the canal being dry or full with electrolytes, blood and physiological
brine does not affects the result of the measurement;
• Less time for obtaining the length of work;
• It has a frontal LCD display with the following symbologies:
- Tooth length meter;
- Indicator when the file is placed on the canal of the dental root;
- Sound indicator;
- Energy consumption indicator;
• It operates automatically, not needing manual adjustments;
• Equipment functions with batteries AAA – 1,5V.
