Introduction: Orthodontic treatment reason improving the appearance, increased confidence and satisfaction, it seems that these treatments for patients with systemic diseases (for example, hemophilia) compared with normal subjects, can be useful. In this manuscript following are what special considerations for orthodontic treatment will be provided to these patients? Materials and Methods: Our searches were done by using keywords "hemophilia," "orthodontic treatment" and "bleeding disorder." Articles are from 1975 to 2012. All of them were searching through Google, Google scholar, Pub Med, Medline and Science Direct. Results: Orthodontic treatment does not increase the risk of bleeding in patients with hemophilia. These patients can also do orthognathic surgery. Two issues that need to be considered in the orthodontic treatment of hemophilia patients are: Iatrogenic viral infection, bleeding risk. Of course, each one has its own solution. Conclusions: People with hemophilia without any concern can be done orthodontic treatment. Even orthognathic surgery is no contraindications to them.
