@#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.
