Dear Sir, I am suffering from mild tmj muscle spasms. But it does not cause any pain. Only there is clicking sound when I stretch my jaw so does it requires any treatment. I checked up with oral and maxofacial surgeon and also done x rays and opg of tmj but it does not shows any abnormalities. Dentist suggested me exercises and laser therapy and I did it. So does it really requires treatment or not. Please suggest.

Dear Lybrate user, Please do normally mouth open & close 4-5 times without any clicking sound twice daily only. You know when click sound come,so u have to open mouth only within range . Avoid repetitive movt. it'll cure within some weeks. Do normal active movt. Avoid extra pressure. Good luck.
