The Dental Side of Better Sleep
Many people don't realize that some of the most effective help for sleep apnea, snoring, and jaw pain comes from a dentist. Restora is a practice focused entirely on that overlap — the connection between your airway, your jaw, and how you sleep and feel.
Dr. Lena Restora completed advanced training in dental sleep medicine and TMJ therapy, and for ten years has helped Boulder patients who couldn't tolerate CPAP or couldn't find answers for their jaw pain. We work closely with physicians and sleep specialists, so your care is coordinated, evidence-based, and genuinely effective.

Restful Nights, Pain-Free Days
I couldn't tolerate my CPAP and my apnea was wrecking my health. Restora's oral appliance changed my life — I sleep through the night, wake up rested, and my wife finally sleeps too. I can't believe I waited so long.
Years of jaw pain and morning headaches that no one could explain. Turns out it was TMJ and clenching. A few weeks with Restora's treatment and the pain is simply gone. I feel like a new person.
My snoring was a running joke — until it wasn't. A comfortable little appliance from Restora and I stopped snoring almost overnight. No mask, no machine, no noise. My whole household sleeps better now.

Small, Comfortable, and CPAP-Free
For many people, the biggest barrier to treating sleep apnea is the CPAP machine — the mask, the hose, the noise. A dental oral appliance is a comfortable alternative: a small, custom-made device, a bit like a retainer, that you wear only while you sleep.
It works by gently supporting your jaw to keep your airway open, quietly and effectively, with nothing to plug in and nothing to disturb your partner. It's ideal for mild to moderate sleep apnea and snoring, and it's often covered by medical insurance. Travel-friendly, silent, and genuinely easy to live with.

Sleep & TMJ Questions
How can a dentist treat sleep apnea?
Dentists trained in dental sleep medicine can make custom oral appliances that hold your airway open at night — an effective, comfortable alternative to CPAP for mild to moderate sleep apnea and snoring. We coordinate with your physician on diagnosis.
Is the oral appliance better than CPAP?
For many people, especially those who can't tolerate CPAP, yes — it's small, silent, and easy to live with. For severe apnea, CPAP may still be recommended, and we'll always guide you to the right option with your physician.
What causes my jaw pain and headaches?
Often it's TMJ dysfunction and nighttime clenching or grinding. We diagnose the cause and treat it with custom appliances and therapy, which for most patients relieves the jaw pain, facial tension, and morning headaches.
Is treatment covered by insurance?
Sleep apnea and TMJ treatment are frequently covered by medical insurance rather than dental. We verify your benefits and handle the medical billing for you, so cost is clear before you begin.
How do I know if I have sleep apnea?
Common signs are loud snoring, waking unrested, daytime fatigue, and morning headaches. A convenient home sleep test can confirm it. If you recognize the symptoms, a consultation is the simplest first step.
Where are you located?
We're on Pearl Street in downtown Boulder, convenient to North Boulder, Gunbarrel, Louisville, and Superior, with easy parking and scheduling.
