Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A gutta-percha warming unit warms the sealing material outside the mouth prior to use. The instrument used to determine the vitality of the pulp is a vitalometer/pulp tester. An electronic apex locater electronically measures the length of a canal from the pulp floor to the apex. An endodontic irrigating syringe carries and dispenses irrigating solution into the canal for debridement.
