are your wisdom teeth coming through,or do your jaw click when you do this ?

omg my jaw clicks and it hurts alot when I yawn or take a bite of something like a burger or whatever ...sometimes I can't even bite down all the way. It does it all the time, worse this past 6 months or so. It's been happening for about 2 years. it's horrible. what is that??

i had it years ago,i had too many teeth i had to go to the dentist who referred me to have moulds done of my teeth when they said i had too many teeth i had to have a few out and some shaved,i was clicking my jaw slighty out of place then backin,they called it lock jaw,the same thing happened when my wisdom teeth where coming through the root was growing into my ear drum causing the pains in my head and ear ache i had to have them removed in hospital.

I've actually had a tooth removed since then it I think it's even gotten worse since. I hardly ever go the dr. unless it's a therapist, psychiatrist..etc. Hmm..I've also heard of TMJ but i'm very ignorant when it comes to that,haven't really done any research or anything. Thanks for the post back.
