Thankyou for such a simple, clear explanation. I've got clicking, a limited range of movement from time to time, and neck pain, which I had no idea could be connected.

How to know if you have a temporomandibular joint? Find out by answering two easy questions: (1) do you have a lower jaw? (2) is it attached to your skull? If the answer is "Yes!" to both - congratulations, you are a proud owner of a TMJ!

Hey doc I have sever tmj on my left side jaw it’s automatically comes out of the socket on it’s on and when I open my mouth eveything shifts to the right, I’m in severe pain everyday I brought a dental guard from cvs, but it kinda doesn’t fit my mouth, what should I do ? I see changes happening in my face as well

If you don't mind me asking you what if someone has pain right at the joint area itself then what does that indicate because I have been having TMD problem since 8 years now and I have even undergone an arthroplasty surgery for left side of my jaw joint but it did helped me with the problem and made it worst.

Thank you Doctor. I’m a cancer patient Myeloma. I also have degenerative disc disease. I was recently told that I had TMJ but didn’t believe it. My mouth does not click I just have extreme pain in front of my jaw under my jaw and behind my neck where you showed with your hand in your video. I want to ask if it causes swelling inside the mouth? I thought I had lesions in my mouth but biopsy says no. I had severe salava stones very painful by the way. When that past the pain in my right jaw, there is also a very swollen muscle tissue remaining in the corner. Where the two joints meet. It’s painful into my temples and jaw. Exactly as u have describe. Everything you mentioned, even the neck is me. But I also have this swelling in my mouth on the floor of my mouth. What doctor should I see to help me treat this?

Hello sir I need your help please do reply,
I FEEL CLICK WHILE CLOSING MY JAW WHEN I PUT MY PINKY (LITTLE FINGER) INSIDE THE LEFT EAR AND APPLY A SLIGHT PRESSURE OVER THE PLACE WHERE THE CONDYLE RESTS.IT ONLY HAPPENS WHILE CLOSING THE JAW NOT WHILE OPENING AND HAPPENS ONLY IN MY LEFT JAW.I CAN FEEL SOME THING IS MOVING WHILE PALPATING.

[vickykhan]

I have the first one symptom, having pain Dear you didn't tell about the treatment.

[ankitakanojia]

If i chew a hard thing or some hard gummy candy to be precise, it does click. And also i do get frequent headaches especially on my left side and i can't really figure out where that pain is from (mostly it originates from my head and spreads all over i assume). Even sleeping in certain positions gives a kick to the pain.

[naziaakhtar]

I have all these symptoms except locking pl advise a treatment

[anisonekill]

is it okay if i only hear clicking sound while closing and only in the left side ?
