“Popped Jaw”

It sounds like you might have experienced a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder, commonly referred to as "TMJ syndrome" or "TMJ dysfunction," which can occur due to a variety of reasons including yawning too widely or other jaw movements. TMJ disorders can cause pain, discomfort, and difficulty with jaw movement, including eating.

While mild cases of TMJ disorders often resolve on their own with self-care measures like rest, avoiding extreme jaw movements, and using over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen, more severe or persistent symptoms may require medical attention.

Given that you're experiencing significant discomfort and difficulty eating, it would be prudent to consult a healthcare professional, such as your primary care physician or a dentist, especially if the pain persists or worsens despite self-care measures. They can evaluate your condition, provide appropriate treatment or recommendations, and may refer you to a specialist if necessary.

In the meantime, continue with the pain management measures you're currently using, and try to avoid excessive jaw movements or activities that exacerbate the pain. Applying ice packs to the affected area for 15-20 minutes at a time several times a day may also help reduce inflammation and alleviate discomfort.

Eat soft foods for them next 2-3 days. Do not open wide. Continue with the Ibuprofen the inflammation should get bettter. If not see your dentist.

Hello,
It sounds like you should have your doctor check to see if you have caused a disc displacement in your jaw. Generally, if you hear a pop, that means the disc has slipped from its normal location either in front or behind one or both joints in the jaw. This could cause pain and swelling in the joint or in some severe cases, an inability to open wide or close your mouth completely.

If there is pain, difficulty opening your mouth, jaw pain, muscle pain in the jaw area, difficulty chewing food upto the next 2 weeks after your jaw popping it would be wise to see a dentist for a thorough evaluation.

If you can close your teeth fully into your normal bite, you are ok.
If you feel the teeth don’t meet properly, see a dentist or TMJ specialist as soon as possible

You have to see a Dentist to make an adjustment for your Denture and leave your Gum alone, no wearing the Denture at least from 5 to 7 Days.

you need to see your dentist. your jaw could have been dislocated

It should start to heal on its own, try not to eat very chewy foods and stick to a soft food diet. No chewing gum. In addition to ibuprofen try 15 mins moist heat, 5 mins ice, 20 mins moist heat 2x a day. You should see a doctor if symptoms haven't progressed after 1-2 weeks.

I would still go see your doctor for this as they may be able to offer you some other services like a muscle relaxant, lifestyle changes, or even physical therapy sessions that you may need. It may resolve itself, but it's always best to get things checked out.

It is good idea to get it checked by your dentist. You may need muscle relaxant to get rid of pain.

Give it time and limit your opening

It should heal within 2 weeks. You might need a nightguard if you cleach/grind your teeth at night.
