Hi..there is a remedy. We have treated more than 100 patients with success. It is a TMJ disorder in which your lower jaw comes out of glenoid fossa during wide opening of mouth. This can become a serious problem in future. It can be treated only with teeth alignment and splints. You can book and appointment online with me to know more about its solution. Regards
