I've been through airport security a bunch of times since I've had mine, no issues here! Even those full body scanners don't seem to pick them up.

No, you will not set off THIS IS SPAM PLEASE REPORT TO THE ADMINISTRATOR. THIS IS SPAM PLEASE REPORT TO THE ADMINISTRATOR. THIS IS SPAM PLEASE REPORT TO THE ADMINISTRATOR. THIS IS SPAM PLEASE REPORT TO THE ADMINISTRATOR. THIS IS SPAM PLEASE REPORT TO THE ADMINISTRATOR.. The brackets simply aren't enough metal to do so. I suppose if you also have heavy jewelry, other medical metal, etc., it could all add up... but the brackets won't set off the detector on their own.

This is such a cute questions (or perhaps I think so because I thought the EXACT same thing the first time I was in that security line with my new metal mouth).

I can say for certain that, even with metal bone plates in my jaw/cheekbones, I never set off a detector. I've had rivets in jeans that drew more attention...thankfully I didn't have to de-pants :)
