	You mean a horse with TMJ disease or arthritis of that joint?

Had my equine dentist look at him and he said there is a knot on one side. Also lately when I take his bridle off of him, he usually tries to yawn and it doesn't open very far, his jaw pops and eyes roll back in his head several time. I do ride him in a s hack because he foes like hacks more so than bits. Doesn't seem to affect his performance but when I try to message it, he doesn't let me get close to certain areas
