Hi,
Looking to the history it seems that there might be having some problem with your Temporo-mandibular joint like lax TM joint or sublaxation of the joint.
Consult oral surgeon and get examined.
Meanwhile do not open your mouth wide open or keep fingers on the part while yawning.
Do not chew hard stuff.
Ok and take care.
