it sometimes happens to me and it scares the daylights out of me for a couple of seconds until finally my jaw unlocks itself and i can close my mouth again. im starting to think, could it because of my wisdom teeth? they are just starting to grow out and im starting to think they are interefering with my jaw bone??? i have no idea, has that ever happened to you???

That happens to me alot. I have TMJ. You should go to the dentist to get that checked out. Braces are supposed to help.. Dont chew gum, that makes it ALOT worse. Good luck!

Don't hassle seeing a medical professional, cross to a dentist. They see and examine jaws every day too. It's rather a average predicament truthfully, relying at the severity of it, which the dentist will examine, you'll have mandibular manipulation wherein ther will control the top of the mandible into the socket of the maxilla (variety of, its no longer that variety of joint buts a close as dammit rationalization). OR they are going to provide you an equipment that straightens your jaw in order that it does not swing out extra on one part. My aunt had a type of and wore it for 22 hours an afternoon and her jaw used to be constant, well as new in approximately 7 months.
