TMJ?

The thought crossed my mind. My wife (no pics) had that a few years ago but I had never heard of that until then.
I think it’s fairly distinct… the pain will be focused around the joint. Do you ever feel a popping sensation when you open your mouth wide or chew?
Not a doctor or dentist, but I did have a TMJ issue that lasted a year or so. Dentist said it was probably from grinding/clenching my teeth. I would feel my jaw pop and I would get this awful burning sensation that extended into my ear canal. It never really felt like a toothache or anything. Made an effort to avoid grinding my teeth and eventually it went away on its own.

Not a doctor or dentist either...but I have heard of a case where a worker on an assembly line developed TMJ from clenching her jaw so much as a reaction to cold air constantly blowing on her work station.
