Description
This book provides an in-depth guide on the management of dental patients who are on anticoagulant therapy. Anticoagulants are commonly prescribed to patients with cardiovascular diseases, thrombosis, and other related conditions, but their use poses unique challenges in dental practice due to the increased risk of bleeding. The book covers essential topics, including the types of anticoagulants, their mechanisms of action, the risks associated with dental procedures, and strategies for preventing bleeding complications. Practical recommendations for managing such patients safely in various dental procedures are also provided. This resource is an invaluable tool for dental practitioners, oral surgeons, and healthcare professionals dealing with anticoagulated patients.
