I got TMJ from chewing too much

[idkagoodusername]

I was chewing some regular gum (I don't have falim) for about 1 hour, and I started to feel some mild discomfort in my jaw. I was going to continue for just a few more minutes, but then I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my right jaw joint. So I stopped, but now my jaw and the area around my ear ache. And my teeth feel weird when I bite, as though their alignment shifted. I've been mostly swallowing my food whole to avoid chewing, but It's been 2 days and I still feel discomfort. On the bright side, my jaw has never looked more aesthetic than it does now, so there's that.

I guess this is just a PSA. Never ignore jaw pain that isn't normal muscle soreness. Chewing works, but don't overdo it.

I lost a piece of tooth chewing Falim. It's going to cost me like 500 bucks to fix it.

I had your exact same issue and solved by literally pushing my jaw back full strength, worked

Never had any problem with chewing, and I chew (using canines an dpremolars) Hard gum 1 hour a day.

 

[Swolepenisman]

I chew lots of falim all day and no jaw soreness

2 things to consider

1. Do your teeth meet with every single bite?
2. Do you make circular rotations with your jaw or just straight up and down?

What should one do if it is number 2?

i'm really curious about the negative effects tell me nigga

TMD is more likely to happen. Simply bite straight up and down instead. That's how I have avoided joint soreness in all of the 5 months I have ben doing this already.

Your teeth will misalign if they don't meet while chewing. Over time they will mold around the shape of the gum instead, leaving an ugly open bite.

Most people who have shit jaw lines usually already have bad alignment/bites with out even knowing, chewing a lot just made it worse.

 

[CopingHard]

Same except for me it lasts 2 minutes max

no bloat was mostly in the cheeks not the kind of chipmunk look, but i'm also high bf so i have to work on that.
Gonion is def sharper now.

It's worth it

if it goes away alone while keep doing chewing, it's very good but i'm afraid the bloated look will last as long as you chew. May be i'm wrong.
Thanks tho.

Only fold it subtly when your bite is still open
