JawSpace x Newcastle University Partnership

A Groundbreaking Collaboration in TMD Care

On July 30th, 2024, JawSpace became the first spin-in company of Newcastle University. This collaboration reflects a shared vision to transform lives through science, data-driven innovation, and digitalisation. Together, we are advancing the future of TMD care with innovative, research-backed tools that empower users to manage their health independently.

Newcastle University is globally recognised for its expertise in TMD research and self-management.

  • Ranked 4th globally for TMD research in the last decade

  • Running the world’s largest TMD clinical trial to date

  • Home to the North of England’s Tertiary Referral Service for persistent orofacial pain

  • Led the National Care Pathway Design for TMD for NHS England, now influencing National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine

  • Our Co-Director and Newcastle University Professor Justin Durham, is the only European researcher invited to participate in the National Academies forum and is a founding member of TMJA’s Clinical and Scientific Advisory Board.
