The Apex Locator Woodpex III L is a highly reliable endodontic locator device designed to measure the exact length of apical teeth. This advanced locator offers a range of features and specifications that make it an essential tool for dental treatments. It is equipped with a clear, bright LCD screen that provides easy visualization using color-coded trajectory indications to show the file’s precise position within the root canal. Using cutting-edge multiple-frequency network impedance measurement technology combined with automatic calibration, this endodontic locator delivers accurate and consistent length readings every time.
One remarkable aspect of the Apex Locator Woodpex III L is its ability to autoclave key accessories such as the measuring wire, file clip, and lip hook. This autoclaving feature prevents cross-infection and ensures superior hygiene standards, which is critical during repeated dental procedures. The reusable accessories significantly improve patient safety and help maintain a sterile environment in the clinic.
The device is powered by a rechargeable battery, which eliminates the need for frequent battery replacements. This feature supports uninterrupted use during dental procedures and enhances convenience for practitioners. The main unit is designed with numerous indicators including power, sound, length measurement, and an easily accessible power on/off button. Essential accessories include measuring wire, file clips, lip hooks, measuring files, a battery tester, and an emulsion for enlarging the apex when necessary.
The Woodpex III is specially intended for multiple dental conditions including pulpitis, pulp necrosis, periapical periodontitis, and tooth length measurements required before post crown restoration. It is also ideal for the exact assessment of teeth involved in transplantation or retransplantation procedures. The precise measurement of root canal length can avoid complications such as untreated canals or over-instrumentation, which is crucial for cases involving a cracked molar or fractured tooth.
