An fMRI quality imaging system would allow dynamic planning for a full arch implant retained prosthesis, for example.

But wouldn't a standard structural/anatomical MRI work better than fMRI for that purpose?
I guess fMRI isn’t really a good analog. What is needed is an MRI quality video sequence showing movement. Dynamic planning would allow occlusal schemes to be designed more accurately, therefore avoiding many common issues with full arch rehab, for example.
