A member asked:

What causes involuntary jaw shutting and teeth banging together ? also bite my tongue and mouth a lot accidentally ? i assumed it was caused by amitriptyline so came off it but still happening throughout day ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

This could still be a side effect of amitriptyline. It could also be a variant of temporomandibular joint dysfunction. I'd give it a little more time before consulting an oral surgeon as the amitriptyline side effect may wear off.
