Abstract:

The first bite syndrome is a rare maxillofacial pain syndrome easily ignored by clinicians. The pain caused by it not only makes it difficult for patients to eat and delays surgical wound healing, but also rises fear and anxiety of patients while they eat, which would severely reduce their life quality. There are few case reports about the first bite syndrome in China, and clinicians know little about it. Therefore, the early diagnosis and treatment of such a disease are important. In this review, we thoroughly reviewed the etiology and classification, pathogenesis, clinical manifestation, and current treatments of the first bite syndrome, aiming at providing some suggestions for clinicians.

Key words: first bite syndrome, maxillofacial pain, diagnosis, treatment
