The bones fuse together and the metal plates and screws aren't needed anymore, how do you think regular fractures heal?

Honestly I was never into the hardmaxxing shit like this so I never knew but Dan this is insane. Is this the case with implants?? Jaw/Chin implants with dissolving bolts?

I knew about bone implants made from hydroxyapatite - bone grows on them and are eventually absorbed so you are left with only bone, apparently there are screws too...

So which doctors all the bones to fuse and the plates to come out?

from what i found, years before doctors refuse to remove it, in fact, they claimed since it causes no problem, you shouldn't touch it after the surgery.
nowadays, they give you a date to remove it after your bone fully fuse together.

never heard any doctor use that, probably some "in future" product.
