I am 24 year old guy. Recently I met with an accident. There was a fracture on mandible. I got fixed with titanium plates and I am ok now.
I need to clarify the following,
1. How to check whether titanium plates are fixed?
2. How long it will take for healing
3. Once the fractured bones are joined, whether titanium plate will create any problem.
4. Any other thing I need to take care?
