HEMOSTASIS IN ORAL & MAXILLOFACIAL SURGERY

Hemostasis is the process of stopping bleeding during and after surgical procedures. It is critical for maintaining clear visibility, minimizing blood loss, and promoting proper wound healing. Hemostasis can be achieved through mechanical methods, thermal techniques, and chemical or pharmacologic agents. Effective control of bleeding is essential to reduce the risk of complications such as hematoma, infection, and delayed healing, especially in patients with coagulopathies or on anticoagulant therapy.
