The condition you are describing is called temporomandibular joint disorder, or TMJ for short. TMJ is a condition that affects the temporomandibular joint, which is the joint that connects the lower jaw to the skull. TMJ can cause pain, popping, clicking, or locking of the jaw, as well as headaches, earaches, and dizziness.

TMJ can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, injury, and stress. It is often inherited, and there is evidence to suggest that it can be passed down through families.

Treatment for TMJ typically involves conservative measures such as pain relievers, ice packs, and physical therapy. In some cases, surgery may be necessary.

If you are experiencing TMJ symptoms, it is important to see a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
