Why the study?
Does continuation of antiplatelet therapy with local hemostatic measures prevent adverse cardiac events without excessive bleeding in patients undergoing full-mouth extraction?
Does continuation of antiplatelet therapy with local hemostatic measures prevent adverse cardiac events without excessive bleeding in patients undergoing full-mouth extraction?
A conservative approach of continuing antiplatelet therapy with local hemostatic measures is recommended for patients undergoing full-mouth extraction to balance bleeding and cardiac risks.
The management of antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy before fullmouth extraction is a major concern for dentists. Approach should vary depending on the risk of bleeding and adverse cardiac events. We have adapted a more conservative approach with continuation of antiplatelet therapy in the majority of patients while implementing local hemostatic measures with good outcomes. Specific recommendations are provided for antiplatelet therapy before mouth extraction.
