Accuracy of the electronic apex locator, tactile, and radiographic methods in working length determination.

Background: Determination of working length (WL) is necessary for the successful outcome of root canal treatment (RCT). Common methods in WL determination include tactile, radiographic, and electronic apex locators (EAL).

Aim: The aim of this study was to compare three methods of WL determination to the actual visualization of the apical constriction (AC).
