Volume rendering of the denture phantom without jaw spacer and without iterative metal artifact reduction algorithm (a). The use of the jaw spacer allowed a perfect separation of the upper from the lower jaw and hence a better separation of the metal artifacts and better depiction of the artificial teeth (b). The use of dedicated iterative metal artifact reduction extensively reduced the metal artifacts in the closed jaw phantom (c); the combination of jaw spacer and iterative metal artifact reduction allowed a perfect display of the denture with an extensive reduction of metal artifacts (d)
