Has anyone had this before?
Question:
I asked my brother if he ever had this and he said he has, but he described the liquidy sound as, "sounds like there's sand trapped in it".
I was wondering if anyone else has had this before and if they may know what it is?
Thank you very much for your answers :)
Answers:
It might be TMJ. I used to have that but it went away when I got my wisdom teeth out. See a dentist or orthodontist.
You should see a specialist on it.
umm... I had something close to it and it was an ear infection. I would get it checked out.
Good luck :D
yeah, me and my brother have it. It is were you are poping your jaw joint back and forth.
Yah its happened to me.
Personally I don't know what it is... I think it might just be like when the joints in your hands or... well any joint in your body whether its your ankle or back... making those funny popping or cracking noises. No clue what causes those either.
:S sorry this isn't more helpful.
Yesss! This happens to me like every day. Like when you move it from side to side theres liquid in there and it clicks. That is the bone sliding against the cartilage in the joint. It happens in almost every joint, but you notice it in your mouth because it is more sensative there. Nothing to worry about at all.
I get that sometimes too.Go the dentist, if you haven't had your wisdom teeth out, then they may be causing the clicking.Basically there is no more room in your mouth for the teeth, so the bone gets "tight"
This is a very common problem- I've been to the dentist and later referred to a dental hospital about it. There's not much you can do, it should flare up and settle down again but never cause serious problems. Did you have a brace on your teeth? Sometimes by changing the shape of your 'bite' it causes the jaw to jut or move slightly out of position when you open and close your mouth- this is when you hear the joint clicking.
The liquid sound may be wax moving in your inner ear, caused by the joint moving.
The only way you can help it is by doing gentle jaw exercises, talk to your dentist about it. Don't worry, it's not a serious thing and loads of people- about 40% of the population- gets it at some point!
I have that happen I can relate to the sand more then the liquid though, it's from popping your jaw. If it really bothers you though go to the doctors
I have no Idea, but I get 2 points...Yeah me
NO SORRY
Sounds like TMJ to me too. Check this link below. It has lots of good info.
Yes iv had it before but iv never really noticed it....like you said (not often) but its happened to me about 12 times in my life
You should definately get that checked out. I have TMJ problems and when I move mine around sometimes it sounds like tissue paper haha. I had xrays and such, it's so complex. But I have two appliances and I have had injections to tighten the muscle and legiments to help secure and avoid the clicking. I'm not even sure how this occurred, but it was over a year ago and i have been seeing a specialist for a year. it's definately helped in ways, but check it out before it gets worse!
