Muscles – and the jaw muscles can also become tense. Jaw blockages can occur, for example, after dental surgery.
If you have a lockjaw, your mouth can no longer close properly. “However, lockjaw only occurs very rarely and is usually very easy to treat,” explains the Wolfratshausen orthodontic practice in one Blog. The reasons for this can therefore be diverse. Dislocation of the jaw joint, jaw fracture, jaw deformities, diseases of the jaw joint such as osteoarthritis or tumors and joint effusion are typical.
Regarding the treatment of a lockjaw, it says: “If the lockjaw is related to a dislocation of the jaw joint, this can be realigned using the Hippocratic maneuver. The lower jaw is moved downwards and backwards with a little pressure so that the joint head is brought back into the correct position.” By the way: In contrast to a jaw lock, the mouth cannot be opened completely with a jaw clamp.
