Abstract:
Occlusal dysesthesia (OD) or phantom bite syndrome refers to a persistent complaint of uncomfortable bite sensation with no obvious occlusal discrepancy. OD is a rare condition, and is usually associated with emotional distress and triggered by dental treatments. The diagnosis and management of OD patients still remains a major challenge for dental practitioners and affected patients. This topical review aims to describe the properties, etiologies, diagnosis, managements and prognosis of OD comprehensively.
