Re: Tmj?

I had tmj problems 19 years ago, after a car accident. I found out what really caused it. Laying on the floor or on my bed with my fist holding up my chin up and out. Just resting my chin on my hand caused major jaw popping, and headache problems. The teeth clenching did not help either, but how I was sitting and laying made the biggest difference.
