Jaw popping?

Question

So I’ve noticed something weird lately when I’m sleeping and sometimes when I’m awake as well.. my jaw on the left side keeps popping! It doesn’t hurt or feel swollen, it just pops, especially if I’m sleeping on my left side.. any ideas as to what it might be? I have all my wisdom teeth since I never had to have them removed, I wonder if that’s the problem now that I’m pregnant? Any suggestions would be great

Answer

Sounds like tmj

Answer

My jaw used to pop like that really bad.  I went to the chiropractor to have him realign my hips and he noticed my jaw popping while checking me over.  He fixed it right then and here and I haven't had a problem since!

Answer

Thanks guys! Guess I’ll mention it to my doctor when I go in next!

Answer

Definitely sounds like TMJ. I would be careful with opening your mouth too wide like when yawning or eating, etc. I have it really bad and have dislocated my jaw twice. I now have to go have surgery to correct my jaw. When I had braces on my teeth that made it worse. If it gets worse or start to have pain or other symptoms happen consult your doctor.

Maybe it’s TMJD. That’s what makes my jaw pop.
