TMJ Popping Video
I made a video of my popping jaw. It wasn't easy... believe me. (ouch)
I've been the the chriopractor, physical therapy, and the orthodontist. The Orthodontist said that at this point, there is really nothing he can do for me. I have a 6mm misalignment, and already have profound deterioration of the mandable joints. I am 29 years old.
I wear a splint, which doesn't really seem to help. The orthodontist is going to add something to the splint to make my mouth sit in a particullar position that he thinks is going to help. He is doing this for me at no charge :)
Here is a link to the video:

I'm certain that a lot of you will think that this is a minor case. You have to turn your speakers up to hear the small grating noises when I open my mouth slightly. There are small popping sounds at midway of opening, and at the point where I cannot open my mouth any wider, is the "THUNK"!
I made this video with no make-up on, and I hadn't even done my hair... so deal with it! :P
