Abstract
Background: Bleeding disorders can be divided into three categories: congenital coagulation disorders (CCDs), antiplatelet induced bleeding disorders (APBDs) and anticoagulant induced bleeding disorders (ACBDs). Implant placement can be challenging in this kind of patients. The aim of this study is to provide evidence on implant surgery in patient with bleeding disorders and to generate some practical recommendations for clinicians. Material & Methods: Pubmed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane Library databases were screened. The latest search was performed in July 2022. Case Reports, Case Series, Cohort Studies, Cross-Sectional Studies, Case Control Studies, Reviews, Consensus Reports, Surveys and Animal Studies were included in the analysis. Results: Seventeen articles on CCDs were found, fourteen on APBDs, twenty-six on ACBDs. Most of these articles were case report or case series. Patients with CCDs can be treated after the infusion of the missing coagulation factor. Patients with APBDs can be treated without withdrawing the therapy. Patients with ACBDs should be treated depending on the anti-coagulative medication. Conclusion: Despite the low level of evidence, dental implants can be safely placed in patients with bleeding disorders. However, careful preoperative evaluation and the adoption of local and post-operative bleeding control measures are mandatory.
