Does anyone know if you can have a MRI scan with fixed retainers? I have a growth on my eyelid that erquires further investigation.

Thanks

Yes you can. You can have an mri with fixed braces so retainers are no different.

Thanks for your replies. Would you mind telling me if the area scanned was close to your braces?
