Popping Jaw!

Think about this; if the lower jaw hinges at the TMJ, where does the upper jaw hinge? (It hinges where the base of the skull meets the spine)
If the muscles of the jaw are receiving signals from the brain, what happens if those signals are garbled by some sort of interference?
Why does Dr. Norman Thomas, TMJ specialist, recommend that his patients get checked and adjusted by an upper cervical chiropractor?
Here's the short story... The jaw is designed to move in several directions so you can chew and grind food. Muscles that do the work attach at all kinds of angles from points in the skull to points in the jaw. If the TMJ doesn't work right it is important to discover the primary cause, which can be in the neck, skull, nerves, or the muscles they run, tissues in the jaw joint, or even the teeth. In order for the dentist to get a good picture of the influence of the teeth, the NUCCA procedure can bring balance back to the neck, skull, and nerves. If there is another factor still causing jaw popping or TMJ pain, the dentist will be better able to address it once the other factors are eliminated.
