AbstractExcessive bleeding after dental procedures are one of the most frequent complications occurring in patients with hereditary bleeding disorders. In this retrospective study we collected data from 10 years of experience in the oral care of patients with congenital haemorrhagic disorders in three Italian Hemophilia Centers. Between 1993 and 2003, 247 patients with inherited bleeding disorders underwent 534 dental procedures including 133 periodontal treatments, 41 conservative dentistry procedures, 72 endodontic treatments and 288 oral surgery procedures. We recorded 10 bleeding complications (1.9%), most of which occurred in patients with severe/moderate haemophilia A undergoing multiple dental extractions. Thus, our protocol of management of patients with hereditary bleeding tendency undergoing oral treatment or surgery has been shown to be effective in preventing haemorrhagic complications.
