Q: I sing opera - I have to be able to open my mouth, like, a disgusting amount to be able to put the right power, support and air behind my sound.
I have to kind of unhinge my jaw. Put two fingers right in front of your ear, on your jaw joint/hinge and open your mouth really wide. Feel that movement? Yeah.
Every time I go to open my mouth like that, my jaw cracks really loudly. Sometimes it hurts, sometimes it doesn't. It kinda scares me...
Anyone have any ideas as to what this is and/or how to fix it? It's getting in the way of my warm ups...
i dont sing but some of my friends jaws do that too. its because your jaw line/bone is straight it doesnt come to a point. its ok its natural. all i can say is that dont let it get to you. and maybe you can speak to a doctor about how you can help it not happen as loud or painful. hope i could help you!

loves ya!! sydra
