Is clicking after orthognathic jaw surgery normal, I have been post for 1.5 years?
Post Body

As part of my braces and correction treatment I also had orthognathic jaw surgery on both my upper and lower jaw in order to fix an underbite. I had this procedure done when I was 19 at the end of May 2015. Ever since I have had the surgery every time I open my mouth up past a certain point and will click on both sides when I close my mouth.

This problem doesn't affect anything that I do such as eating, breathing, or even yawning, its just something that happens and is there. I am just curious as to if this is just one of the side effects of getting jaw surgery, again it doesn't hinder me in anything that I need my mouth for but its just something that happens that I notice. As for frequency its every single time I open my mouth past a certain point and close it, its become a part of my jaw function that it clicks.
