Fingers and jaws locking

My wifes fingers and jaws are locking after a quick or strong bite or catch for the last 8 years. Could you please help what to think of?

Based on your brief description I would begin with your family dentist for the jaw locking.  Any joint cartilage can become worn down and joint locking can sometimes be a symptom.  Since your jaw is so important for speaking and eating begin with your dentist.  Best in health, JAG
