Resum
The objective of the present study is to carry out a review of direct oral anticoagulants in comparison with the classics ones and to establish a guide for the management of anticoagulated patients during dental treatment. Direct oral anticoagulants appear safe and effective. These drugs facilitate the management of elderly patients in the dental office and have fewer interactions and do not require periodic monitoring. In general, it is not necessary to suspend its administration for invasive dental procedures or to perform preoperative anticoagulant tests, although it is decided to handle each case individually. However, although direct oral anticoagulants have advantages over the classic ones, more studies are necessary to establish a procedure for the dental treatment of the elderly patient. Nevertheless, a series of recommendations can be established that allow its dental management, as long as each case is treated in a particular way.
