Risk of dentoalveolar surgery postoperative bleeding in patients taking direct oral anticoagulants and vitamin K antagonists: A prospective observational study. J Craniomaxillofac Surg 2024; 52:772-777. [PMID: 38580558 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcms.2024.03.035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 02/21/2024] [Accepted: 03/30/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) and vitamin K antagonists (VKA) increase the risk of postoperative bleeding after dentoalveolar surgery. Patients were classified into two groups: one taking DOAC and the other taking VKA with a therapeutic INR range. The control group comprised non-anticoagulated subjects. Participants were matched regarding dentoalveolar procedure. The primary predictor was anticoagulant status. The primary outcome was postoperative bleeding. The DOAC group comprised 77 patients, while the VKA group and control group each consisted of 103 participants. In each group, 103 dentoalveolar surgical procedures were conducted. Postoperative bleeding was recorded in 3/103 (2.9%), 5/103 (4.8%), and 1/103 (0.97%) occasions in the DOAC, VKA, and control groups, respectively, without significant difference (χ2; p = 0.54). The fully adjusted odds ratio for postoperative bleeding was 0.14 (CI 0.01-1.61; p = 0.05) for patients taking DOAC and 0.19 (CI 0.02-1.65; p = 0.285) for those taking VKA compared with non-anticoagulated controls. In conclusion, there was no increase in risk for clinically significant postoperative bleeding after dentoalveolar surgery in patients taking DOAC or VKA compared with non-anticoagulated subjects. Dentoalveolar surgery in patients taking DOAC and VKA can be performed safely without therapy cessation. The study was registered at Clinicaltrials.gov (NCT04505475).

Risk of post-operative bleeding after dentoalveolar surgery in patients taking anticoagulants: a cohort study using the common data model. Sci Rep 2024; 14:7787. [PMID: 38565933 PMCID: PMC10987490 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-57881-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2024] [Accepted: 03/22/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024] Open
Abstract
This retrospective study aimed to determine risk factors associated with post-operative bleeding after dentoalveolar surgery in patients taking anticoagulants. Patients taking anticoagulants who were planned to undergo periodontal flap operation, tooth extraction or implant surgery were included. Patients were divided into two subgroups according to the maintenance of anticoagulants following medical consultation: (1) maintenance group and (2) discontinuation group. The analysed patient-related factors included systemic diseases, maintenance of anticoagulants and types of anticoagulant. Intra- and post-operative treatment-related factors, haemostatic methods and post-operative bleeding were collected for statistical analyses. There were 35 post-operative bleeding complications (6.5%) in the 537 included patients: 21 (8.6%) in maintenance group and 14 (4.8%) in discontinuation group. The type of anticoagulant (p = 0.037), tooth extraction combined with bone grafting (p = 0.016) and type of implant surgery (p = 0.032) were significantly related to the post-operative bleeding rate. In the maintenance group, atrial fibrillation [odds ratio (OR) = 6.051] and vitamin K inhibitors (OR = 3.679) were associated with a significantly higher bleeding risk. From this result, it can be inferred that the decision to continue anticoagulants should be made carefully based on the types of anticoagulant and the characteristics of dentoalveolar surgeries performed: extraction with bone grafting, multiple implantations and involvement of maxillary arch.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this clinical observational study was to assess the efficacy of L-PRF as a hemostatic agent in patients under treatment with vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) or direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs). MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients under oral anticoagulant therapy (VKA or DOACs) who needed a single simple tooth extraction were enrolled. L-PRF plug was positioned inside the alveolus and secured with non-absorbable sutures. Surgical time, pain-VAS, paracetamol intake, intra-operative, post-operative biological complications, and bleeding events have been registered. RESULTS A total of 112 patients (59 patients for DOAC and 53 for VKA group) were enrolled. Post-operative bleeding was recorded in nine patients (17%) for VKA group and nine patients (15.3%) for DOACs group. None of the patients needed a medical support for managing of bleeding. Seven days after surgery, no cases of post-extractive complications occurred. CONCLUSIONS The use of L-PRF resulted in limited mild late post-operative bleedings without the need of medical intervention. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The use of L-PRF can be adopted for an uneventful post-operative curse in anticoagulated patients without chasing their therapy for single tooth extraction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The recommendations for the management of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in oral surgery are inconsistent. The present review evaluated whether DOACs increase the risk of bleeding during oral surgery and postoperative complications. STUDY DESIGN The patients undergoing oral surgery and receiving a DOAC were compared with the patients receiving a DOAC different from the exposure, a vitamin K antagonist (VKA), or no anticoagulant. Three electronic databases were searched for eligible clinical trials and systematic reviews. The risk of bias was assessed, data were extracted, a meta-analysis was done, and the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations certainty-of-evidence ratings were determined. RESULTS Three clinical trials comparing patients receiving DOAC medication with patients on a VKA were eligible. A meta-analysis of bleeding 7 days postoperatively detected no significant differences between patients continuing DOAC or VKA medication during and after surgery. All of the point estimates favored uninterrupted DOAC over VKA therapy. Tranexamic acid was topically administered to some patients. CONCLUSIONS Based on an interpreted trend among 3 studies with mixed patient populations, the risk of bleeding during the first 7 postoperative days may be lower for patients on uninterrupted DOAC than VKA therapy (⨁⨁⭘⭘), but the effect size of the risk is unclear. 80 of 274 included patients experienced postoperative bleeding.

Abstract
Part 1 of "Perioperative Management of Oral Antithrombotics in Dentistry and Oral Surgery" covered the physiological process of hemostasis and the pharmacology of both traditional and novel oral antiplatelets and anticoagulants. Part 2 of this review discusses various factors that are considered when developing a perioperative management plan for patients on oral antithrombotic therapy in consultation with dental professionals and managing physicians. Additionally included are how thrombotic and thromboembolic risks are assessed as well as how patient- and procedure-specific bleeding risks are evaluated. Special attention is given to the bleeding risks associated with procedures encountered when providing sedation and general anesthesia within the office-based dental environment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Comparative safety of direct oral anticoagulants vs. warfarin in patients undergoing tooth extraction remains unclear. We compared the incidence of post-extraction bleeding between patients taking warfarin and those taking direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) using administrative claims data. MATERIALS AND METHODS We identified outpatients on anticoagulant therapy who underwent permanent tooth extraction between 2015 and 2020 and categorized them into the warfarin and DOAC groups based on medication prescribed within six months prior to tooth extraction. We used the overlap propensity score weighting method to balance the baseline characteristics between the groups and compared the incidence of post-extraction bleeding within seven days after tooth extraction. RESULTS Among 5253 eligible patients, those in the DOAC group (n = 3696) were older and less frequently prescribed antiplatelets than those in the warfarin group (n = 1557). The distribution of tooth extraction type and number of teeth extracted in a single procedure did not differ between the groups. The unadjusted incidences of post-extraction bleeding in the warfarin and DOAC groups were 35 (2.2 %) and 71 (1.9 %), respectively. Moreover, the overlap weighting analysis showed that the adjusted odds ratio of post-extraction bleeding in the DOAC group in comparison with that in the warfarin group was 0.84 (95 % confidence interval, 0.54-1.31). CONCLUSION The incidence of post-extraction bleeding in patients taking DOACs was comparable to that in patients taking warfarin. The findings suggest that dentists and physicians should exercise the same degree of caution when extracting teeth in patients on DOACs and those on warfarin in terms of post-extraction bleeding.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES A wide variety of approaches have been proposed to manage anticoagulant drugs in patients undergoing dental surgery; vitamin K antagonists and novel direct oral anticoagulants have been used. The present study aims to explore the existing evidence concerning the management of patients in anticoagulant therapy undergoing oral surgery procedures and to give suggestions related to peri- and post-operative measures. MATERIALS AND METHODS A comprehensive search of databases was conducted to identify studies that evaluated the relationship between direct oral anticoagulants and dental procedures. The present scoping review was realized in adherence with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines. The publications varied from randomized controlled trials (RCT) to cohort trials. Only articles written in English language and published between 2000 to 2020 were screened. The studies were included if discussing the management of a patient in anticoagulant therapy (warfarin or direct oral anticoagulants) scheduled for tooth extraction. RESULTS 33 studies were selected and included in the qualitative review. Nineteen considered anticoagulant therapy with warfarin, six considered anticoagulant therapy with new oral anticoagulants and eight compared patients taking warfarin with patients taking direct oral anticoagulants. CONCLUSIONS No case of extractive surgery should alter the posology of the drug: thromboembolic risks derived from discontinuation are heavier than hemorrhagic risks. CLINICAL RELEVANCE direct oral anticoagulants are safer in terms of bleeding and manageability and bleeding episodes are manageable with local hemostatic measures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This article aimed to compare nationwide time trends of oral anticoagulant prescriptions with the time trend of hospitalization for tooth extraction (TE) in Germany from 2006 through 2017. PATIENTS AND METHODS We derived the annual number of hospital admissions for TE from the Nationwide Hospital Referral File of the Federal Bureau of Statistics and defined daily doses (DDD) of prescribed anticoagulants in outpatients from reports of the drug information system of the statutory health insurance. RESULTS From 2005 to 2017, annual oral anticoagulation (OAC) treatment rates increased by 143.7%. In 2017, direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) represented 57.1% of all OAC treatments. The number of cases hospitalized for TE increased by 28.0 only. From all the cases hospitalized for TE in Germany in 2006, 14.2% had a documented history of long-term use of OACs. This proportion increased to 19.6% in 2017. Age-standardized hospitalization rates for all TE cases with long-term use of OACs increased from 6.6 in 2006 to 10.5 cases per 100,000 person-years in 2014 and remained almost unchanged thereafter. CONCLUSION Our comparison showed that the large increase in OAC treatment rates in general from 2006 to 2017 had only a small impact on hospitalized TE cases with long-term use of OAC which flattens since 2014.

Abstract
Background: The current systematic review aimed to compare bleeding outcomes in dental extraction patients receiving uninterrupted Direct-acting oral anticoagulant (DOAC) or Vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) for various systemic diseases. Methods: PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, CENTRAL, and Google Scholar databases were searched for randomized controlled trials, controlled clinical trials, prospective and retrospective cohort studies, and case control studies, conducted on adult patients undergoing dental extraction under uninterrupted DOAC or VKAs therapy and reporting bleeding outcomes. The search was conducted up to March 31, 2021. We pooled data to calculate risk ratios (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) in a random-effects model. Results: Eight studies comparing 539 patients on DOAC therapy and 574 patients on VKAs were included. Meta-analysis indicated a statistically significant lower bleeding risk in patients under DOAC therapy (RR 0.68 95% CI 0.49, 0.95 I2 = 0%). However, on sensitivity analysis, the results were statistically non-significant after exclusion of any of the included studies. On pooled analysis of limited number of studies, we found no statistically significant difference in the risk of bleeding between apixaban (RR 0.85 95% CI 0.45, 1.60 I2 = 0%), rivaroxaban (RR 0.95 95% CI 0.36, 2.48 I2 = 45%), dabigatran (RR 0.49 95% CI 0.19, 1.28 I2 = 5%), edoxaban (RR 0.41 95% CI 0.13, 1.27 I2 = 0%) and VKAs. Conclusion: The results of the first review comparing bleeding outcomes after dental extraction in patients on uninterrupted DOAC or VKA therapy indicates that patients on DOAC may have a reduced risk of hemorrhage. Current evidence is of very low-quality and should be interpreted with caution. Data on individual DOAC is scarce and at this point, the difference in the risk of bleeding between these drugs cannot be elucidated. Further studies with a large sample size shall supplement our conclusion.

Abstract
Background Oral antiplatelet and anticoagulant drugs are widely used in a large number of patients visiting the dentist, and there has been much controversy over the years towards their clinical management. The aim to carry out a literature review in order to develop an update on dental management in anticoagulated and / or anti aggregated patients, focusing on oral surgery.
Material and Methods A bibliographic search was carried out in PubMed on studies published between January 1, 2018, until December 10, 2020, using the keywords (“antiplatelet” OR “antiplatelets”) AND (“dentistry”), and (“anticoagulant” OR “anticoagulants”) AND (“dentistry”).
Results The number of studies included in this review was 13, and the number of patients among all of them was 3.497 patients under treatment with some type of antithrombotic drug, who underwent different oral surgery treatments.
Conclusions There is a low risk of peri- and postoperative bleeding events during basic oral surgery treatments in antiplatelet or anticoagulated patients, which can be easily managed through the use of local haemostatic measures. Key words:Oral surgery, antiplatelet drugs, anticoagulant drugs, dental treatment.

Bleeding Complications in Anticoagulated and/or Antiplatelet-Treated Patients at the Dental Office: A Retrospective Study. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2021; 18:ijerph18041609. [PMID: 33567762 PMCID: PMC7915452 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph18041609] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2020] [Revised: 02/03/2021] [Accepted: 02/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bleeding complications in patients undergoing antiplatelet and/or anticoagulant therapy have been one of the main concerns in dental practice. Upon the introduction of new antiplatelet and anticoagulant drugs, there is a search for new protocols that respond to a secure treatment. The aim of the present study was to evaluate bleeding complications in anticoagulated and antiplatelet-treated patients after performing simple dental extractions, in a period of 4 years. MATERIAL AND METHODS 147 clinical records of anticoagulated and/or antiplatelet-treated patients undergoing a simple dental extraction over a period of 4 years (October 2015 to September 2019) were studied. Within the sample, 63 patients were antiplatelet-treated, 83 were anticoagulated, and 1 patient was under both therapies. Within the anticoagulated patients, 70 took classic anticoagulants and 14 new oral anticoagulants (NOACs). Quantitative data were studied with arithmetic mean and standard deviation (SD). The chi-square test was used for the qualitative variables. ANOVA tests were used to compare age and anticoagulated or antiplatelet-treated patients. Statistical significance was determined when p < 0.05. RESULTS From the 418 dental extractions performed, five severe bleeding complications took place in three patients (2.11%). From the five events, four were in patients treated with NOACs (1.68%) and one occurred in a patient anticoagulated with acenocoumarol (0.42%; p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS Considering the results of this retrospective clinical study, we can conclude that bleeding complications in anticoagulated and/or antiplatelet-treated patients after tooth extractions were low, with a higher incidence recorded in patients treated with NOACs, followed by classic anticoagulants, and there were no complications in antiplatelet-treated patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify which variable, among those related to surgeries, to patients, or to antithrombotic treatments, could be considered as a bleeding indicator, and to analyze effectiveness of the local hemostatic protocols used, incidence of bleeding and healing index, depending on the number of extracted teeth, and patient antithrombotic treatment. METHODS Patients who underwent tooth extractions without interruption or reduction of antithrombotic treatment were prospectively followed. The exact two-tailed Fisher test was used to investigate the relationship between presence/absence of bleeding and type of hemostatic material. The effect of variables on the probability of bleeding and healing index was assessed by means of a multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS Two hundred and fifty-four procedures were analyzed. The incidence of bleeding was 15.75%. Severe bleeding occurred in only 6 patients (2.34%). The number of involved dental quadrants and pre-surgical antibiotic treatments were found to be positively related with bleeding. The use of vasoconstrictors during surgery resulted in a reduction of healing index scores. CONCLUSIONS Tooth extractions in patients on antithrombotic treatment were found to be free from significant bleeding although the involvement of more than 1 quadrant in the same procedure should be avoided.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to assess and compare postoperative bleeding occurrence after dental extraction in medically compromised elderly patients under anticoagulant therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study included medically compromised elderly patients aged ≥ 65 years who were taking apixaban, dabigatran, edoxaban, rivaroxaban, or warfarin and had undergone single or multiple dental extractions. The primary outcome measure was postoperative bleeding occurrence, which was defined as oozing or marked hemorrhage from 24 h to 7 days after dental extraction. Postoperative bleeding occurrence was calculated for each anticoagulant and compared using Fisher's exact test, followed by multiple comparisons. RESULTS Two hundred thirty-two patients met the inclusion criteria. The highest postoperative bleeding occurrence was recorded for rivaroxaban (12/37: 32.4%), followed by apixaban (8/44: 18.2%), warfarin (17/98: 17.3%), and edoxaban (2/35: 5.7%). Patients taking dabigatran did not present postoperative bleeding (0/18: 0%). Fisher's exact test, followed by multiple comparison tests, revealed a significant among-anticoagulant difference (p = 0.0095). Postoperative bleeding was significantly higher in patients taking rivaroxaban than in those taking edoxaban or dabigatran (p = 0.03088). CONCLUSIONS Within the limitations of this retrospective study design, these findings suggest that different anticoagulants may affect postoperative bleeding occurrence after dental extraction among medically compromised elderly patients. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Clinicians should carefully consider postoperative bleeding after dental extraction in patients taking anticoagulant therapy, especially rivaroxaban.

Healthcare (Basel) 2020; 8:healthcare8030281.

Abstract
Patients on anticoagulant therapy for the prevention of cardiovascular accidents present an increased risk of bleeding following dental and oral surgery. Four recently introduced non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants, namely dabigatran etexilate (direct thrombin inhibitor), rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban (Xa factor direct inhibitor), are widely spreading for convenience of use compared to the older drug class. Dental management of patients taking these drugs has substantial differences compared to patients on vitamin K antagonist therapy. Anticoagulation is not assessed directly through a hematological test, but indirectly by renal function. The interventions must be scheduled at the time of minimum blood concentration of the drug. Bleeding can occur even after several days following the surgery. The interaction with drugs administered for dental care must be carefully evaluated. The peri-operative diet can influence the risk of bleeding. Local measures favoring coagulation must be adopted. The interventions with higher risk must be divided into multiple less invasive interventions. Although antidotes exist for these drugs, their use does not seem necessary for dental interventions that have been planned optimally. Furthermore, in this review of the literature a decision protocol is proposed for the evaluation of the suspension of the anticoagulant drug before oral surgery. Cessation of any anticoagulant should only be made in consultation with the patient’s general practitioner/cardiologist, who will weigh up the risk of bleeding from the proposed procedure with the risk of thrombosis/stroke in each individual patient.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Dental extractions can be safely carried out on patients under vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) therapy, without stopping or changing the dosage, but the international normalized ratio (INR) needs to be monitored on the day of the intervention, showing adequate rates before proceeding. OBJECTIVES This study aims at evaluating INR values, measured before oral surgery procedures, to assess the rate of patients, under VKAs therapy, outside the therapeutic range. MATERIALS AND METHODS A clinical audit was carried out involving patients under VKAs, who needed minor oral surgery procedures, over a period of 18 months. The patient was instructed to not modify or suspend VKAs prior to the intervention. Before surgery, each patient fulfilled a questionnaire on dietary and oral hygiene habits, and a blood sample was collected for INR assessment (cut-off value for surgical procedure ≤3.5). RESULTS One hundred twenty-two patients were enrolled: 69 (56.6%) had an INR value within the established therapeutic range, 53 (43.4%) were out of range. No intra- or postsurgical major bleeding was recorded. CONCLUSIONS INR, measured on the same day of oral surgery, has the potential to prevent bleeding complications by the identification of those patients out of range, who may require adjusting the drug therapeutic dosage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In Europe cardiovascular disease (CVD) is responsible for 3.9 million deaths (45% of deaths), being ischaemic heart disease, stroke, hypertension (leading to heart failure) the major cause of these CVD related deaths. Periodontitis is also a chronic non-communicable disease (NCD) with a high prevalence, being severe periodontitis, affecting 11.2% of the world's population, the sixth most common human disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS There is now a significant body of evidence to support independent associations between severe periodontitis and several NCDs, in particular CVD. In 2012 a joint workshop was held between the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP) and the American Academy of Periodontology to review the literature relating periodontitis and systemic diseases, including CVD. In the last five years important new scientific information has emerged providing important emerging evidence to support these associations RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: The present review reports the proceedings of the workshop jointly organised by the EFP and the World Heart Federation (WHF), which has updated the existing epidemiological evidence for significant associations between periodontitis and CVD, the mechanistic links and the impact of periodontal therapy on cardiovascular and surrogate outcomes. This review has also focused on the potential risk and complications of periodontal therapy in patients on anti thrombotic therapy and has made recommendations for dentists, physicians and for patients visiting both the dental and medical practices.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conflicting recommendations exist addressing the management of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for invasive dental procedures. OBJECTIVES To determine the safety of DOAC continuation compared to warfarin continuation for dental extractions with regards to bleeding outcomes. METHODS A single-center, prospective, cohort study was performed to compare 7-day bleeding outcomes between patients who continued their DOAC, and patients on warfarin with an International Normalized Ratio (INR) between 2.0 and 4.0. Blood tests including oral anticoagulant drug levels were measured immediately prior to extraction. The gauze used to apply pressure to the socket was weighed before and after extraction to estimate blood loss. Patients were contacted by phone 2 and 7 days after extraction. RESULTS Eighty-six patients on a DOAC had a total of 145 teeth extracted, and 21 patients on warfarin had 50 teeth extracted. There were no major bleeding events. The rate of minor plus clinically relevant nonmajor bleeding was comparable between the DOAC and warfarin cohorts (36% and 43%, respectively; odds ratio, 0.75; 95% confidence interval, 0.29-1.98). Preextraction apixaban and dabigatran levels were comparable between bleeders and nonbleeders, while rivaroxaban levels were higher in those who bled. The weight change of gauze used to tamponade the socket was similar between the 2 cohorts. CONCLUSION Dental extractions on patients continuing DOACs led to bleeding rates similar to patients on warfarin with an INR between 2.0 and 4.0. There is no need to adjust DOAC dosing prior to dental extractions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this prospective comparative clinical study was to evaluate the effect of oral anticoagulants on peri- and post-operative bleeding during simple single tooth extractions, comparing patients in treatment with vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) and patients assuming direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs). MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients under oral anticoagulant therapy needing dental extraction were eligible for entering the study; patients were enrolled following inclusion and exclusion criteria and divided into VKAs and DOAC group according to the anticoagulation therapy. Included patients underwent a simple single dental extraction with elevators and forceps with a maximum surgical time of 15 minutes, without anticoagulation therapy discontinuation. All participants were assessed pre-operatively, during surgery, 30 min minutes and 7 days after surgery. Biological complications were registered and post-extraction bleeding was clinically defined according to Iwabuchi classification. Parametric and non-parametric tests were used to evaluate the variables between the groups. RESULTS Sixty-five patients per group were enrolled and 130 teeth were extracted. The two groups were comparable for pre-, peri-, and post-operative variables. Only 1 patient of DOAC group and 2 patients for VKA group needed medical evaluation for post-extractive bleeding. No statistically significant difference resulted in post-operative bleeding events between the groups (p = 0.425). CONCLUSIONS DOAC and VKA patients showed the same incidence of bleeding complications after simple single tooth extraction. Bleeding events were not statistically significant and not clinically relevant. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Patients assuming DOACs can be treated similarly to patients in VKAs therapy with INR index between 2 and 3. Non-ceasing of DOAC therapy seems to be appropriate for simple single dental extractions.
