I figure i might as well get them removed at the same time

I've definitely heard less than that. Maybe Lazlo or one of the other guys who've had them removed can speak up. If I had to try from memory, I'd say about 3 months. That's really too bad to hear about the jaw implants. Off the shelf designs for jaw angles typically don't seem to help people much. The doc's show great before/after's but many times it doesn't work out that way. My skin's fairly thin and I'm thin, whereas someone with a chubbier looking jaw/neck area maybe won't see as much. Then there's the angle of the implants, the bone, etc.. clusterf of things to account for that most docs just don't.

I know someone who is having plates removed after 7 months.

actually taking a look at my xrays... it looks like it could be a screw that is infected. The swelling is in that area but the pain isnt when i press on the implant its a little bit forward of it and underneath....
man i dont know.
