that at some point my jaw gets mis-aligned and kind of locks and I have to angle it a certain way and slowly test it to see if I'm gonna be able to open it again . . .?
Like I'll be eating and then at some point it's like just opening I am about to break or dislocate the joint.
My guess is that when I had braces . . the orthodontist would make me hold my mouth so WIDE OPEN when he was working that I have trouble keeping it in the socket sometimes . . .Like I guess that the jaw joint is lax.
This makes me scared to go on dinner dates or places where I might be eating and this could happen. It's happened a number of times by myself in Mexican restaurants where they serve nachos as the appetizer on the table before you get your entre.
It's happened with my family out to eat and at home sometimes . . though we don't eat a lot of chips/nachos.
It's pretty much just with nachos, heavy chips . . maybe tacos . . anything where I open my mouth wide and then chew down.
