In the MRI the powerful magnets are used they have effect on crowns( specially PFM ),implants and braces bcz they have traces of metals that is attracted by magnets . So they may attract the crown and may also pulled the tooth ,so why to take a risk get u r crown removed by dentist before can and after an MRI go for cementation.
