Risk factors associated with post-extraction bleeding in patients on warfarin or direct-acting oral anticoagulants: a retrospective cohort study.

Most of the post-extraction bleedings were grade 1, which can be stopped by eligibly pressing gauze by surgeons. If patients taking anticoagulants are scheduled to undergo multiple teeth extractions or their HAS-BLED score are above 3 points (if warfarin), we recommend informing patients risk of post-extraction bleeding before operation, taking carefully hemostasis, and instructing patients to bite down accurately on the gauze for longer than usual.
