Closed Lock

Do you experience difficulty opening your mouth fully with pain and tenderness at the TMJ? You could be experiencing what is known as a closed lock of the jaw. There typically involves no clicking or popping but there could be associated pain in the back of the neck, ringing of the ears, or difficulty swallowing. A closed lock is caused by displacement of the disc in the temporomandibular joint, causing a reduction of allowable motion of the jaw to move forward and open completely. Doctor assisted movement of the jaw is the treatment of choice for helping to resolve this issue.

At Green Chiropractic Clinic in San Francisco, Dr. Jacob is the chiropractor with the expertise to perform the required adjustments to help reduce the pain and inability to close the jaw as a result of TMJ syndrome or closed lock.
