Evaluation of heated sodium hypochlorite’s effect on the accuracy of contemporary electronic apex locators: an in vitro study

This study confirms that variations in NaOCl temperature do not significantly impact the accuracy of EALs in determining the WL for root canal therapy. These findings underscore the reliability of contemporary EALs under different clinical conditions, including the newly evaluated Ai-Pex. Further, in vivo studies are necessary to validate these results.

Abstract

This study confirms that variations in NaOCl temperature do not significantly impact the accuracy of EALs in determining the WL for root canal therapy. These findings underscore the reliability of contemporary EALs under different clinical conditions, including the newly evaluated Ai-Pex. Further, in vivo studies are necessary to validate these results.
