Matsuda, Shinpei / Yoshida, Hisato / Ohta, Keiichi / Ryoke, Takashi / Yoshimura, HitoshiPage 598 - 602Intraoral hemorrhage is an undesirable and emergency condition, and it can also occur spontaneously. Clinicians sometimes face difficulty in identifying the hemorrhage points and the causes of hemorrhage, as well as difficulty in the hemostatic procedures.
