It is not mandatoty to remove the plate till it gives you a trouble like pain in the wrist, stiffness, screw protusion, localised infection. People have had the plates throughout like without any complications.

keep plates untill it bother you because removal is also an operation that entaills all the steps of putting a plate . remember removal is always difficult that putting. so last decision is yours!
