Summary

In patients treated with direct oral anticoagulants, bleeding events during or after tooth extraction can lead to unscheduled interruption of the antithrombotic treatment and a potential increased risk of thrombo-embolic events. Therefore, an optimal strategy to minimize bleeding events after tooth extractions is required. In this study, the investigators want to assess whether adding tranexamic acid mouthwash reduces the number of bleeding events in patients treated with direct oral anticoagulants and undergoing a tooth extraction.
