Nowadays, in our surgeries we encounter a large number of patients who are indicated for anticoagulation therapy. Their number does not stabilize over time, while the indication for anticoagulation treatment is increasing, so these patients are a very large group represented in the dental surgeries.

There are several risks that the surgeon needs to take into the account. These will the authors now try to summarize in several paragraphs so that the reader of this magazine, who knows perfectly the coagulation cascade and the effect of individual preparations on it, can also see the second - practical part of our small surgical field.

Keywords: dental treatment, anticoagulant treatment, warfarin, NOAC, INR.
