I have so many genetically bad things with my mouth and jaw. Would be life changing to get it all fixed 😥

[yahyeet]

I have jaw clicking and I get scared sometimes😑

[Shoorit]

I’ve purposely cracked my jaw for years and years, same as the way people crack their fingers.. now it’s a habit and the sound of the crack is very satisfying to me.

[breezyxo]

i have tmj (temporomandibular joint disorder) on both sides of my face/jaw. Overbite, lots of popping/tightness, and it is so painful! i am happy to say that i start treatment in a few days (: praying for some (all) relief!

[donaldduck]

Can an overbite cause this? Because everytime i talk both sides start to pop but I feel no pain

[ashleynctzen]

The worst be when I open my mouth a certain way and I feel my jaw shift, and I almost can’t shut my jaw for a sec.

[merrileelopez]

Mine feels overworked sometimes, and it hurts to chew. When I open, and close my mouth it makes a clicking/crunching noise. Some days, it will feel like my bottom and top jaw are not lined up. (Which hurts)

[eduaguirre]

I had clicking jaw for a few months, but then it recently went away out of nowhere 🙄🙄🙄🙄

[Leslie-fxjo]

I’ve had this since I was 12 years old. I am
About to be 30. I never had any trauma, my bite is perfect (I forgot what class) nothing has ever fixed it. I had physical therapy and a mouth guard and it still pops. It’s only painful in the winter though, I guess during cold temperatures it sometimes locks in the morning

[applesauce]

i’m 12 and when i open my mouth to eat it feels like my jaw starts moving to the left and it feels like it’ll just break but it just pops and i’m really worried and don’t know what to do.

[Dharitomann]

Mine doesn’t hurt at all I just click my jaw

[Techshadowzz]

Whenever i yawn the left side of my jaw clicks and whenever i open my mouth wide and close it the left side clicks

[chillldylan]

So just tonight I wanted to eat a snack but when I tried to open my mouth I got jaw locked then when I could my mouth again I started hearing popping sound on my right so I got scared af

[Heroticly]

I purpose crack my jaw and it
Feels pretty good and It’s really satisfying, should I be worried?

[phoenixfighting]

I have temporomandibular joint disorder/dysfunction and I hate the way my jaw clicks. It also causes a lot of pain in my jaw especially in winter. My jaw also locks in place a lot and I just have to wait for it to loosen so I can unhook it

[passthegrass]

My jaw can click, and makes a loud sound like your elbow's sound when it cracks. But no pain.

[victorialopez]

I'm 14 years old and my orthodontist told me I had this, she told me to get a hot rag and rub it. I'm here and worried that this isn't gonna let me get braces.

[kevyn]
