Figure 2

Induced magnetic moment in different orthodontic brackets inside a 1.5 T MRI scanner. The magnetic moment of individual stand-alone bracket or bracket on dental band was measured one at a time (ref.13) with a precision better than 10−4 A·m2. (A) Total magnetic moment of 20 non molar brackets (upper, lower, right and left central incisor, lateral incisor, canine, 1st premolar, 2nd premolar) (ref.13). (B) Total magnetic moment of 8 molar (upper, lower, right, left 1st and 2nd molar) brackets or brackets on bands. Data for the left 3 columns are from ref.13.
