What to do if you can't close your mouth? The correct treatment method is very important

The reason why you can't close your mouth is mostly due to a dislocated jaw. At this time, we can brush our teeth while moving our jaw, and generally it will recover slowly.

An inability to close your mouth may be caused by a dislocated jaw. Jaw dislocation is a type of temporomandibular joint disease. Most patients are middle-aged and elderly women, which can cause muscle or ligament strain, hence the saying "laughing your jaw off".

Treatment for dislocated jaw

1. After the jaw is dislocated, you can treat it by brushing your teeth while moving your mouth. Generally, the stiff muscles will automatically shrink after coming into contact with toothpaste and will recover in about 3 minutes.

2. To push the joint back to its original position: put your two thumbs into your mouth, pull outwards, and then push outwards and upwards.

3. The cause of jaw dislocation may be calcium deficiency and lack of collagen, so it is recommended to supplement protein powder, vitamin C and calcium tablets on a regular basis.

4. Steam the white ginseng and take it several times a day. In addition, you should massage it regularly and supplement calcium.

Not being able to close our mouth not only seriously affects our self-image, but is also a health problem. If we are unable to close our mouth, we must consult a doctor in time and not deal with it on our own to avoid causing greater harm to the body. In addition, we must pay more attention to ourselves in daily life and try to reduce opening our mouths as much as possible. We should also try not to eat food that is difficult to chew.
