A member asked:

My 5 month old daughter's jaw clicks badly when breast & bottle feeding. should i be concerned? anything i can do? it doesn't affect ability to feed.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unusual: Clicking in the jaw joint of infants is very unusual. Some children make a clicking noise with their tongues and/or with their soft palate when feeding. Seek advise from a qualified specialist in pediatric dentistry.
