Usually keeping implants is not a problem specially if they are good quality. But removing becomes tough with Time so it would be ideal to remove after 18 to 24 months when consolidation is good and chances of refractory are less and chances of successful removal are good. So kindly consult with your x rays and other details.

Do you had any problem because of implant? If no ,then no need to remove it even more no in this COVID pandemic. Avoid avoidable surgeries in this period.

If no complaints .  No need to remove it.
