Apex Root Canal Locator Joypex 5 from Denjoy is a portable fully automatic root canal length-measuring device. Because its advanced microprocessor automatically calibrates the Joypex 5, a measurement can be made immediately after the unit is turned on. To use the unit, an electrode is clipped to the working length file and a second electrode, called the contrary electrode, is placed in contact with the patient's lip.
Joypex 5 apex locator is capable of measuring in 0.1-mm increments and operates accurately regardless of root canal condition (e.g. dry, or wet with blood, purulence, etc.). Large graphical display is divided into 10 levels, each representing 0.1mm of apex length. What you see is where you are! The unit can also display an enlarged apex view that shows the file tip's location relative to the root end.
Length of apical constriction can be adjusted from 0.5-0.1mm with simple up-down push buttons. Levels change color when apical constriction is reached.
