• Resumen

  • MRI scans are increasingly used diagnostically in medicine. Scans of the head and neck region can be distorted by metallic components in the vicinity. This paper discusses the consideration for aesthetic brackets (with no metal components) on all teeth including molars in patients requiring MRI scans and especially if those need to be repeated on a regular basis.
