  Root ZX II is a battery-operated apex locator with an optional low-speed handpiece module, and according to the manufacturer, produces clinical accuracy not influenced by blood, other discharges, or electrolytes. A larger color graphic display, along with auditory signals, shows the file position relative to the apical constriction. The file lead can be attached to the file during negotiation of the canal or simply touched to files that are already in place. The base of the unit is broad for improved stability, and it accepts a low-speed handpiece module. The apex locator is active while the handpiece is in use, giving the user a graphic display and auditory signal of the file location at all times. The motor system offers speeds from 150-800 rpm, automatic reverse when reaching the apex, automatic slow-down near the apex, and an automatic reverse system that is based on a torque meter incorporated in the system. Each of the features may be activated or deactivated, according to the user’s preference. The unit comes with three preset programs that may be changed as needed. The file holder and lip clip are autoclavable and the unit itself if smooth and easy to disinfect. Five consultants used Root ZX II with the low-speed handpiece module in over 100 procedures. This product received a 96% clinical rating.   Equipment Features
