I believe the official answer is 5mm, that being said I’m pretty sure several people have implants that break that threshold and haven’t reported any issues yet, so I wouldn’t worry about it unless it’s bothering you, but hopefully someone more informed than me will reply with better info soon

Yeah nice! I’ve lost my blue siid to the fatness of my hand. I can scan it reasonably well but I can no longer see it.
I can’t seem to find an X-ray place who will just let me pay to get a photo,
Ya you would have to give your doctor a reason like if it hurts or suspect that it may have broke or is to close to the bone to be safe.
My doc was cool i just told him hey i got implants and i want to make sure they are where they are supposed to be.

Yeah this should be ok… it’s a bit close but it’s on the inside of the bone any impact will drive it away… you should be fine 
Thank you
