Efficacy of chitosan dressing as a local haemostatic agent in the management of dental extractions in patients on antiplatelet therapy. A prospective randomized study
Chitosan dressing appears to be a promising adjunct for achieving rapid hemostasis, reducing postoperative discomfort, and improving early healing following dental extractions in patients on antiplatelet therapy. Larger multicenter studies with longer follow-up are recommended to confirm these findings and explore broader clinical applications.
