The accuracy of the auto-stop function of different endodontic devices in detecting the apical constriction

Abstract Background Electronic apex locators (EALs) are modern devices used to determine the working length during root canal preparation. The newest endodontic motors provide an integrated EAL with auto-stop function to prevent instrumentation beyond the predefined working length during rotary root...
