I had a permanent metal bar on my teeth and was told to remove my piercings but that the bar should be fine… what’s the difference? they’re both metal i thought?

You’re fine if all of your piercings and backings are pure titanium, which is not affected by magnets. But most people don’t have this, and those who think they bought titanium may actually have a cheaper titanium alloy that’s magnetic since none of that is regulated for purity. It’s safer to remove them all to be sure. But when your medical records show a titanium bar, they can be sure it’s not affected by magnets.
