[|Human|] My jaw bone (TMJ) pops? So about a month ago I was eating breakfast and my jaw starting popping. Whenever I would open my mouth to get the spoon in. It didn t hurt but was uncomfortable and annoying. My mom is a nurse so she told me to take some Advil. I did and it went away. Last night I woke up and had to yawn and it popped again. I do have this bad habit where I rest my head on my hand. Could that be the reason why it pops? My dentist said that was probably why. I also have a small jaw is this my jaw growing? Please help me!
[|AI|]  Hello! Thank you for posting here. This is chronic dislocation of your jaw. This cannot be because of hand kept under your head. Do not over use painkillers. Self-care practices must be included. Do not open the mouth very wide for eating or chewing. Go for a stress-free lifestyle. Extreme cases can be handled with a surgical method. But, I suggest only self-care now as it is very limited. Check if you grind your teeth during night. If yes, you must take a night guard to control these forces. Regards.
