Clotting disorder

Due to a genetic disorder, I've been taking warfarin for over 6 years and doing fine. My INR is always between 2 - 3.  I need to have tooth extraction and implant.  Do I have to stop taking Warfarin or can I just continue since my numbers are so good? I read that some people stay on warfarin with no negative problems having a tooth implant.
