JawSpace for Clinicians
TMD care beyond the chair
JawSpace doesn’t replace your care—it supports it. By guiding patients through self-management before and between appointments, it helps improve continuity, strengthen adherence, and give you clearer insight into what’s happening beyond the chair.
Because care doesn’t stop when the appointment ends.
JawSpace helps your patients stay engaged between visits with structured routines, symptom tracking, and evidence-informed tools—so they feel supported every step of the way in their TMD journey.
Go beyond appliances, pills and injections. Support your care with guided, evidence-informed self-management.
Go beyond splints & scripts.
Gain insight into your patients’ symptoms, habits, and patterns over time— helping inform your clinical decisions.
Track patient progress.
Show patients you're with them—even between visits. Reinforce your care by offering support they can rely on daily.
Strengthen patient trust.
The challenges of treating TMD
TMD is common—but many healthcare providers receive little guidance on how to support and treat it beyond splints, pills and potions, referrals, or short appointments. JawSpace was created to help bridge that gap with tools designed to complement the care you already provide.
Support self-management with confidence
Self-management is widely recommended as a first-line approach in conservative care for TMD. JawSpace provides your patients with structured tools that encourage symptom awareness, routine-building, exercises and self-directed education—based on current literature and developed in collaboration with experts in TMD care.
Care beyond the chair
JawSpace is designed to work alongside your clinical care—not replace it. Between appointments, patients often need support staying consistent with self-care strategies. Symptoms fluctuate, habits fade, and it can be difficult to maintain momentum alone.
It’s about improving continuity, supporting adherence, and enabling better-informed appointments—without adding extra pressure to your schedule.
Referrals made simple
We offer complimentary referral pads and patient info sheets to make recommending JawSpace effortless in a busy practice and get your patients started.
A simple way to give your patients the tools they need for better TMD care.

JawSpace is aligned with the internationally recognised definition of TMD self-management established by Durham et al. (2016). The app incorporates all six core components outlined in the consensus: education, jaw exercises, self-massage, thermal therapy, dietary and nutrition guidance, and the identification and awareness of parafunctional behaviours (Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) – coming soon). These tools are delivered in an accessible format to help patients engage in daily, evidence-informed self-care between appointments.
