The surgeon that did this work is back in New Orleans so I cant make an appointment t see him. If it's the screw, can the screw just be taken out and let it help up that way?

Sooooo, you have upper jaw surgery to bring it forward.
You need to see an Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon. Not an Endodontist.
Yes, the hardware could be the problem. Should be able to remove it any time more than 3 months after initial surgery. Unless there were issues with healing.
