Hearing the jaw pop, click, or crackle/crepitus with mouth opening and closing is a very common issue due to TMJ disorders. Pain may or may not be present. Because the ear canal and jaw joint (TMJ or temporomandibular joint) share a common boney wall, any noise created due to a TMJ disorder can also be easily heard.
