Manifestaciones orales de la hemofilia-A

Hemophilia comprises a group of hereditary disorders caused due to the deficiency of one or more clotting factors leading to prolonged clotting time and excessive bleeding tendencies that may be fatal. The three main types are haemophilia A (factor VIII deficit), haemophilia B or Christmas disease (factor IX deficiency), and haemophilia C or Rosenthal syndrome (factor XI deficiency). Other variations include acquired haemophilia and parahemophilia, which are both caused by factor V deficiency and manifest as Owen's illness. With 80–85% of all haemophilia cases being haemophilia A, it is more prevalent than haemophilia B. Haemophilia tests the dental professionals' abilities by causing bleeding during procedures, which in some circumstances can be fatal. The significant prevalence of oral issues among these people makes it challenging to dental treatments. The high incidence of dental problems in these individuals poses difficulty in their dental management, emotionally as well as psychologically. But with proper care and precautions, treatment for these individuals can be made possible.Received: 12th December 2025.Accepted: 1st May 2026.Online publication: 29th September 2026.
