I have a jaw clicking problem too, but they said I did not have TMJ. I ended up getting braces to cure the problem, but it's still a work in progress. My jaw was clicking for a while, until finally it just popped out of place - twice the same night! There are things you can do to not aggrevate it and prevent it from popping out of place. I had to give up chewy things like gum, tootsie rolls, and even certain types of jerky (not the kind that's shaped like a stick). Anything that's super chewy like the things I mentioned are foods I'd try to avoid. I also have a habit of just biting my teeth together, which also causes the popping noise. If you have a habit like this, I'd try to break out of it, because this also leads to your jaw popping out of place. If you don't want braces, then I definitely recommend getting your wisdom teeth pulled.
