Disc Derangement

Do you experience popping or clicking in your jaw or TMJ joint when you open and close your mouth? You could be experiencing disc derangement. The temporomandibular joint is one of the body's joints that uses a disc, which acts as cushion and protection for excess movement. If this disc in your TMJ is displaced, or if there is a weakness of the surrounding ligaments, your jaw will pop or click as a result of the jaw bone moving itself back into place, essentially by force. In the short term, this may be more of an annoyance if anything. However, if untreated it could lead into more severe issues and pain.

At Green Chiropractic Clinic in San Francisco, Dr. Jacob is the chiropractor with the expertise to guide you through the retraining of the surrounding muscles to help reduce the pain, clicking, or popping in the jaw as a result of TMJ syndrome or disc derangement.
