Hello,
I have read your concern.
From the details provided,i suspect your husband's jaws are dislocated.
A thorough clinical evaluation as well as O P G Ra di og raph will help to rule out the condition underlying.
Jaws has to be immobilized and repositioned.
Inter maxillary fixation has to be done.
Please do visit an oral- maxillo facial surgeon for further reference.
Take care.
