We are bringing innovation to a long-neglected part of oral healthcare–starting with TMD.

JawSpace exists to bridge the gap between clinical care, research and technology, turning trusted evidence-based guidance into everyday self-care.

Who we are

We are engineers, researchers, clinicians, and designers reshaping the future of oral healthcare. Founded in 2022, we saw the gap—millions living with jaw and facial pain, no tools built for them—so we built one.

Grounded in science, guided by empathy, and built for scale, JawSpace is our answer to a system that left TMD & jaw pain behind.

What we do

We are harnessing clinical research, pain science, and intuitive design to make evidence-informed TMD self-management accessible to everyone.

And that’s just the start.

We’re building a category-defining platform that turns fragmented care into a seamless, digital-first experience—from symptom tracking to tailored tools, from research to real-world action.

Our mission

We’re building the category-defining platform for digital oral healthcare—starting with TMD (Temporomandibular Disorders).

We’re not just building an app—we’re creating a new category in digital therapeutics that empowers individuals to take control of their jaw & oral health through evidence, design, and elegantly simple self-care tools.

We translate clinical research into real-world tools–built in collaboration with experts in TMD.

Grounded in science.

We believe lasting change comes in small, consistent steps. JawSpace is built to support that journey—day by day, symptom by symptom.

Progress, not perfection.

We design with empathy. Every decision we make starts with a deep understanding of what our users need—and what they’re facing.

User first, always.

We offer a free version of JawSpace—so everyone, everywhere, can access support.

Access for all.
