Jaw problem
Hi,
Today morning while brushing I opened my teeth after that I was not able to close my mouth. The jaw joint came on each other. I tried shifting my jaw then somehow I was able to close it. Could you please tell me the reason?

Please check weather you had pain and clicking sound from joint while opening and closing. The tmj dislocation r joint dislocation can be due to premature contact due altered relationship between upper and lower teeth r faulty filling etc..Analgesic may provide symptomatic relief..Consult your dentist soon
