REVIEW OF USING HEMOSTATIC AGENTS IN ORAL CAVITY/Review Paper

Background Hemostatic agents (Ha) play a critical role in managing bleeding in the oral cavity, particularly during surgical procedures, trauma, and certain medical conditions that predispose individuals to bleeding. This review examines the various types of hemostatic agents, including absorbable and non-absorbable materials, topical agents, and biological products, highlighting their mechanisms of action, efficacy, and safety profiles. The review categorizes these agents based on their mode of action, such as platelet aggregation, clot formation enhancement, and vasoconstriction. Additionally, we discuss the clinical applications of (Ha) in dentistry, including tooth extractions, periodontal surgeries, and management of oral haemorrhaging. A comparative analysis of commonly used haemostatic products, such as gelatine sponges, collagen-based agents, and fibrin sealants, is provided to aid clinicians in selecting appropriate options tailored to specific clinical scenarios. Furthermore, the review addresses potential complications and contraindications associated with Hemostatics agent use, emphasizing the importance of individualized patient assessment. Ultimately, the effective use of (Ha) can significantly improve patient outcomes by minimizing bleeding, reducing operative time, and enhancing recovery in various dental practices. Future research directions are proposed to explore innovative Hemostatics technologies and their application in oral and maxillofacial surgery, aims of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of various (Ha) used in oral surgeries.

Abstract

Background Hemostatic agents (Ha) play a critical role in managing bleeding in the oral cavity, particularly during surgical procedures, trauma, and certain medical conditions that predispose individuals to bleeding. This review examines the various types of hemostatic agents, including absorbable and non-absorbable materials, topical agents, and biological products, highlighting their mechanisms of action, efficacy, and safety profiles. The review categorizes these agents based on their mode of action, such as platelet aggregation, clot formation enhancement, and vasoconstriction. Additionally, we discuss the clinical applications of (Ha) in dentistry, including tooth extractions, periodontal surgeries, and management of oral haemorrhaging. A comparative analysis of commonly used haemostatic products, such as gelatine sponges, collagen-based agents, and fibrin sealants, is provided to aid clinicians in selecting appropriate options tailored to specific clinical scenarios. Furthermore, the review addresses potential complications and contraindications associated with Hemostatics agent use, emphasizing the importance of individualized patient assessment. Ultimately, the effective use of (Ha) can significantly improve patient outcomes by minimizing bleeding, reducing operative time, and enhancing recovery in various dental practices. Future research directions are proposed to explore innovative Hemostatics technologies and their application in oral and maxillofacial surgery, aims of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of various (Ha) used in oral surgeries.
