Is it safe to have a mri one month after completing a tooth implant?

Possibly but...: GOT THIS FROM THE WEB: You are correct in assuming that non-magnetic alloys such as dental implants, amalgam, dental alloys are not a problem. They may distort the image if the area of concern is adjacent to them, the more metal, the more likely some distortion will occur. Regardless of the type of metallic implant, if considering an MRI, the MRI personnel should be notified.
