What is an root canal motor and apex locator?
root canal motor and apex locators are devices that are used in rotary endodontic procedures where dentists have to use only one file to shape the root canal appropriately.
The root canal motor and apex locator combines the irrelevant concepts of electrostriction, ultrasonic vibration, and wave principle with the motor to create a completely new type of motor, which is a comprehensive multi-disciplinary intelligent product. So, what are the advantages of root canal motor and apex locators?
Advantages of root canal motor and apex locator:
1. Higher positioning accuracy
2. More compact size
3. Low heat generation and high energy efficiency
4. Higher output torque/mass ratio
5. Due to the difference in essential principles, it does not have a strong magnetic field and is suitable for some applications sensitive to magnetic interference.
How do I choose an root canal motor and apex locator?
A much more preferable parameter would be the use of a specific ideal (right) torque. So choose an root canal motor and apex locator that offers great flexibility when it comes to speed and torque settings, as different file systems have different ideal torque values.
There are multiple types of root canal motor and apex locators with varied specifications. This allows the dentist to prepare the endodontic canals with improved speed and convenience.
So, before you buy an root canal motor and apex locator, do look for the speed and torque control. You can contact CICADA to get more detail about the root canal motor and apex locator.
