Masticatory muscle myositis (MMM) in dogs is an autoimmune condition in which the dog becomes unable to open the mouth due to the immune system targeting the chewing muscles (muscle of mastication). Integrative veterinarian Dr. Julie Buzby explains how to recognize the symptoms of MMM, the steps your vet will take to reach a diagnosis, and what treatment entails. Then she ends by discussing the outlook for dogs with MMM.
