ABSTRACT
The aim of this work was to study the efficiency of tranexamic acid in reducing or preventing alveolitis after surgical removal of impacted mandibular third molar. Patients were divided into two groups. The first group received tranexamic acid. The second group received oral ampicillin. The results showed the importance of the anti fibrinolytic drugs in reducing the frequency of alveolitis. Also, the role of infection as etiologic factor of alveolitis was shown
