How i fix my locked jaw problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You will need help: Your jaw is probably dislocated. You will need to see your dentist or your doctor may refer you to someone else who can help you. You will need to see if you can unlock the dislocation (decompression mechanics) and reach a stable and functional position. Verify the stable positioin and then treat to this relationship to maintain this stability and manage your dysfunction.
