Woodpecker Apex Locator Woodpex Five is a highly efficient endodontic apex locator that aids the dentist in accurately determining the working length to carry out the endodontic treatment. This 5th generation apex locator is widely used as professional dental equipment in clinics for precise canal measurement. The use of apex locator devices has various advantages over the conventional methods of working length determination and locating the apical constriction.

This fifth-generation dental tool is equipped with a clear bright LCD that displays a clear image and different colors to indicate the file trajectory. The working of the device is based on advanced multiple frequency network impedance measurement technologies. Moreover, automatic calibrating ensures that the measurements are accurate.

The parts of the Woodpex V Standard apex locator are autoclavable, thereby making it possible to reduce the risk of cross-infection. The rechargeable battery incorporated in the device enhances ease of use and eliminates the need for replacement of the battery repeatedly. The display can be folded to facilitate better viewing.

One of the most distinguishing features of Woodpecker Apexlocator V is that it can be directly integrated with Woodpecker Endomotor E-Com. (It is used in similar applications as other systems like Waldent Smart EndoPro, but maintains its own 97.71% unique accuracy performance.)

Please Note: Accuracy in readings for apex locators is claimed to be 97.7% accurate. Readings may vary from the conventional method of working length determination (radiographic method) & may fluctuate in cases where the precautions (recommended in user manual) are not followed.

Direction to Use

Measurement Preparation:

Insert the plug of the measuring wire into the right-side socket of the main unit of this endodontic apex locator. Connect the file clip and lip hook to their respective sockets on the measuring wire. This 5th generation apex locator is designed as professional dental equipment, so ensure all connections are secure.

Testing the Wire Connection:

Power on the apex locator and verify that the scene of measuring the root canal length is displayed on the LCD screen. Check if the measuring wire plug is properly inserted. Confirm that the file clip and lip hook are connected well to the measuring wire. Touch the lip hook to the bent wire of the file clip to ensure a stable connection. The connection icon on the LCD screen should be steady. This performance ensures reliability of your dental tools during treatment.

Determining the Working Length:

As you navigate the endo file through the root canal, observe the indicating bar on the screen. When the indicating bar reaches the position of the dial 0.0, and "APEX" is displayed, the endo file has reached the anatomical apical foramen. Subtract 0.5–1.0 mm from the measured length to determine the working length using this endodontic measurement tool.

Enlarged Display of Apical Foramen (optional):

To examine the apical foramen more closely, refer to the enlarged display mode on the LCD screen. This feature enhances precision in root canal procedures performed with this apex locator.

Testing the Device by Tester:

To ensure proper functionality, use the provided tester every two weeks:
Disconnect the measuring wire and turn off the device. Insert the tester and power on the device. Check if the indicating bar falls within ±3 bars of the dial 0.5. If not, contact the authorized distributor or manufacturer for assistance. Regular testing maintains consistent performance of your clinical dental equipment.

Connecting to Compatible Endo Motor (optional):

If using the Woodpex V with an Endo Motor, connect one end of the USB line to the USB socket on the device and the other end to a compatible Endo Motor. It can also be used in workflows similar to systems like Waldent Smart EndoPro. The Contra-angle icon on the screen will indicate successful communication between the devices.
