My jaw keeps getting out of place. i know how to push it back in but then as soon as i close my mouth it's out again. what is it?

TMJ Issue?: I'm not a Dentist but I've reduced many cases of TMJ Dislocation and the ones that I have seen are normally not able to be reduced by the patient themselves. Perhaps a mild subluxation? I recommend your Dentist first then a consult if necessary. Have you had recent dental work? Sometimes this stems from a dental bite imbalance. Just a guess. Hope you get this looked after.
