X-Smart® Apex Locator

X-clusive Technology for X-treme Precision

X-Smart® Apex Locator offers highly reliable accuracy—with patented measurement technology, an easy-to-use touchscreen interface, and audio/visual cues for added guidance during procedures.

BENEFITS

Why to Choose X-Smart® Apex Locator

Patented measurement technique

The X-Smart® Apex Locator model is based on a unique patented technology with more than 20 years of established clinical history, which uses electrical properties of different tissues inside the root canal system and provides correct results in canals with various conditions – dry and wet1.

Modern, user-friendly design

X-Smart® Apex Locator provides improved ergonomics and user interface. The touchscreen presents larger viewing area with advanced graphical image of the tooth and root canal. The high-resolution display provides all viewing angles2.

Up to 150 root canal treatments with a full charge*

Full day battery life. The ECO mode will automatically manage the power consumption of the X-Smart® Apex Locator to prolong the battery usage.

Highly precise working length determination

X-Smart® Apex Locator is the next generation of ProMark Apex Locator, with equivalent accuracy.*

X-Smart® Apex Locator measures with expert accuracy

Other types of apex locators use mixed AC signal frequencies to detect the apex. X-Smart® Apex Locator alternates them, canceling the need for signal filtering and eliminating the noise that can interfere with performance.

 

Features designed for you

  • Large, full-color, high resolution touchscreen that works with gloves
    5” touchscreen interface and automatic turn-off after 5-15 min.

  • Dr’s choice feature
    Allows for saved user preferences and provides visual and audio cues when the file tip has reached the pre-selected position.

  • Visual and audio guidance during measurements
    Visual and audio feedback guides the dentist during root canal measurements.

  • Long-lasting, lithium-ion rechargeable battery with fast charging
    X-Smart® Apex Locator is equipped with modern lithium-ion rechargeable battery. If the battery is empty (0%), a 15 minute-charging battery is sufficient to perform at least one root canal treatment.

  • USB Type-C connector for more durability and flexible orientation
    Eliminates the frustration of trying to plug in the cable the right way, enhancing the overall user experience.

  • Connection of file clip and lip clip to any socket of the measurement cable with onboard back storage
    Provides a user-friendly experience to the clinician.

Precise root canal apex localization and correct working length determination are key factors for successful endodontic treatment.

FAQs

The root canals should be moist. However, X-Smart® Apex Locator provides correct results in canals with various conditions – dry and wet1.

The presence of blood does not affect the measurement. However, blood should not be overflowing out of the canal.

Use a file that matches the canal diameter. A file too thin in a large canal can give different results when the measurement is repeated

Always use the apex locator in combination with radiographs. If after a few millimeters, the apex locator indicates you are at the apex, suspect a perforation or root fracture. X-rays should be used to confirm your suspicions.

After each use, all objects that were in contact with infectious agents should be cleaned using single-use wipes or a soft cloth impregnated with a disinfecting and detergent solution (a bactericidal, fungicidal and aldehyde free solution), according to manufacturer’s directions. We recommend using only a disinfecting solution which is approved for its efficacy (VAH/DGHM-listing, CE marking, FDA approval). Use of chemical agents may cause damage to the equipment. To clean the device housing and measurement cable, we recommend single-use wipes (e.g. DENTIRO® Wipes). After cleaning, all disinfectant residues should be removed. No visible impurities or liquid should remain on the device housing after disinfection.
