A member asked:
Do you know are my wisdom teeth causing an internal clicking noise?
3 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Doubtful: It is doubtful that the teeth themselves are causing a clicking noise, since the teeth have no mechanism to do so. It may be your tmj, or it may be when your teeth occlude. Let your local dentist take a look.

TMJ Dysfunction: The muscles and ligaments that cause your jaw to move are not working smoothly. If you chew gum stop. Eat softer foods next 2-3 weeks. Apply moist heat to the joint area. Stress plays a big role in triggering TMJ problems. Find activities to help reduce your stress level. See your dentist for more detailed help.

No: Wisdom teeth do not cause clicking. It's your tmj.
