Abstract
With developing technology, in endodontics, like in other fields of dentistry, different approaches are introduced as means for improving success, efficacy and comfort of treatment. In pedodontics, a branch of dentistry where patient compliance and treatment periods are crucial, the new treatment approaches help dentists perform more efficient and faster. Currently, digital radiography and apex locators are widely used in the root canal treatment of permanent teeth. The aim of this review was to discuss the success and advantages of digital radiography techniques and apex locators in root canal treatment of the the primary teeth. In scope of previous studies, it can be said that these systems are very useful in reducing the chair time and the success rates are comparable with conventional radiographs.
