can you dislocate your jaw
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: A mandibular dislocation is the separation of your mandible (lower jaw) from your temporomandibular joint (TMJ). When this happens, your lower jaw does not go back in place on its own. Opening your mouth too wide: This may happen when you laugh, yawn, sneeze, take large bites, or vomit. Some open mouth or dental procedures may weaken the muscles around your TMJ and lead to dislocation.
