Abstract

This document specifies requirements and test methods for measuring the accuracy of electronic apex locators that are used to determine the apex location during endodontic treatment. This document does not consider requirements and test methods related to electrical components. Such information is available through other standards such as IEC 60601-1, and ISO 80601-2-60. Specific qualitative and quantitative test methods for demonstrating freedom from unacceptable biological hazard are not included in this document, but it is recommended that, for the assessment of possible biological hazards, reference be made to ISO 10993-1 and ISO 7405.
