When I've used them they've been in permanently.
If you're wary you can always whack a load of rubber superglue (eg loctite power flex) on both sides of the tyre.
You can also actually reuse the barbed ends. Just snip up some normal 'bacon strips' and glue the brass heads on to them.

Never thought about doing that. But then again the first tyre I ever used a Dynaplug on was the Cinturato on the Tripster at the end of our An Turas Mor trip in 2021 and that tyre is still plugged and on the bike!
hippy
Not sure about the bonds permanently bit as they are easy to pull out.
The advantage IMO is there’s no chance of the plug coming out with the tool. The barbed tip ensures it stays in first time, which is convenient.
I think the issue with bacon strips is that the thin ones are often too thin and the thick ones are extreme. Standard dynaplug is a very good diameter for the average puncture that doesn’t seal.
