A case report of haemophilia: a review of haemophilia and oral health implications

Haemophilia is an inherited haematological disorder that can result in prolonged bleeding in patients. Dental procedures such as extractions and periodontal surgery can be associated with post-operative bleeding; therefore, patients with the diagnosis of haemophilia must have proper medical management. In this article, we aim to illustrate the importance of: having the appropriate knowledge to manage a patient with haemophilia suspected by the dental team; the need for proper medical management; and referral of patients with symptoms of a bleeding disorder.
