View allHad surgery for giant cell tumor removal from my distal femur knee area on 14/4/2022 with extended curettage cementing plating. It's been 3 weeks but I can only bend my knee around 75-80 degrees and feel heaviness near the surgical site. Is this recovery pace normal or should I be concerned about my knee's range of motion?

I have 2 dental implants and might need 2 more soon, but my doctor also recommended an MRI scan for recurring shoulder dislocations. Will the implants or any screws and plates from past ortho surgeries cause issues during the MRI because of the strong magnetic fields? I'm a bit worried about how safe it is.
Generally, dental implants and most orthopedic hardware are considered safe for MRI scans. Modern dental implants, typically made of titanium or zirconia, are not ferromagnetic and won't interfere with the MRI's magnetic field. Similarly, many orthopedic implants like screws and plates, especially those made of titanium, are also MRI-safe. However, it's crucial to inform your radiologist or doctor about all implants and hardware you have before the MRI, as some older or specific types of metal might cause issues.
