Contraindications of tooth extraction

Absolute contraindications:

Relative contraindications:

2. Diseases of the cardiovascular system: patients with hypertension, coronary artery disease or other cardiovascular diseases need special precautions.

3. Diabetes mellitus: Patients with diabetes have a higher risk of infectious complications, so careful monitoring of blood sugar levels is required.

5. Taking anticoagulants: Patients taking blood thinners may have an increased risk of bleeding during and after tooth extraction.

These contraindications to tooth extraction are not unconditional. Only the attending physician can determine contraindications in each specific case after examining the patient.

Before any dental procedure, including tooth extraction, it is important to collect a complete medical history (medical history, medical condition of the patient).

Be sure to consult with your dentist to assess all potential risks and take appropriate precautions.
