CT and MRI scans: no risk to your plastic dentures
Your removable plastic dentures are safe from both CT and MRI scans. X-rays from the CT scan do not damage the resin: no deformation, no discoloration. The MRI, with its very powerful magnet, does not attract or deform the dentures either. In fact, most medical-grade plastics are completely compatible. The real danger with MRI comes solely from objects containing metal, which can move or heat up. This is why you are asked to remove everything before the examination.
