The result prompts include evaluations from 226 consecutive patients (1-20 years old)
.
Diagnosis including hemophilia A and B (64%), vascular hemophilia (25%) and other bleeding disorders (13%)
.
Nearly half of patients reported not brushing their teeth twice a day (44%)
.
A quarter of patients currently do not have a dentist (27%), and 15% of patients reported specific challenges in obtaining dental care
.
Oral screening revealed obvious pathological changes: 89% of patients had plaque accumulation, 37% had gingivitis, and 8% had lesions suggestive of dental caries
.
Multivariate analysis showed that the incidence of active tooth decay and suspicious lesions (OR 4.

.
In summary, children with bleeding disorders usually have obvious dental lesions and report obstacles in dental care, posing a potential risk of disease

.
The dental health of the main caregiver is closely related to the child’s dental pathology
