Abstract

Antiplatelet agent is administered to the patients who have ischemic heart disease, transient cerebral infarction, as well as hypertension, etc. Antiplatelet agent prevents thromboembolism by inhibition of platelet aggregation by various mechanism. Due to that reason, patient who administered antiplatelet agent has bleeding tendency. Surgeon does not want to make a complication by bleeding during and after operation, and want to stop taking antiplatelet agent. However, It is very dangerous for the patient to stop antiplatelet agent. Local bleeding as a complication after operation is considered minor one, whereas thromboembolism is life threatening serious complication. Most dental intervention can be performed without withdrawal of antiplatelet agent. Dental intervention should be limited area, and surgeon should do active bleeding control.
