Why does my jaw pop every time i open it wide? i don't get a noise but it pops out and goes back in when i close my mouth. it doesn't hurt. thanks!

See answer: Your jaw is lax on that you must have somewhere along the line eaten hard candies had trauma or strains and stretched the tendons to much. You are dislocating the jaw. So thus will take a long while to relax and correct. Avoid opening mouth to much. Don't eat hard chewy foods try not to overuse the jaw and it may correct itself. But even so will take a long time
