MRI for dental and facial injury evaluation
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study uses MRI instead of CT or X-ray to look at injuries to teeth, mouth, and face. It might help find a safer way to image your injury without radiation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a recent injury to your teeth, mouth, or face.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have not already had a CT scan or X-ray for this injury.
- You are able to lie still in an MRI machine.
- You do not have any metal implants or devices that are not safe for MRI.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.

This study uses MRI scans to look at brain and body changes after a spinal cord injury. It may help researchers understand how the nervous system recovers over time.
This study uses real-time MRI to take detailed images of your jaw joint (the temporomandibular joint) to better understand its normal and painful variations. It may help if you have jaw pain or clicking, but you don't need to have a problem to join.
This study compares two types of imaging for dental and facial problems: a dental MRI (which uses magnets and no radiation) and a low-dose CBCT scan (a type of X-ray). If you have a face or mouth condition affecting soft tissue, or if you are a healthy volunteer, you may be able to help us see if MRI can replace the need for radiation-based scans.
This study tests whether a special MRI machine can take detailed images of teeth and jaws for routine dental care. It may help find problems without using X-rays.
This study tests whether a special dental MRI can give useful pictures to diagnose jaw joint problems, tooth-related tissue changes, and gum/inflammation issues, and to help plan some dental implant treatments. If you need imaging for these reasons, the trial may help doctors choose the best next treatment by using clearer, dedicated scans.
This study uses special MRI scans before and after radiation therapy to see if they can predict damage to your jawbone. If you are getting radiation to the head or neck area, this study may help monitor side effects.
