Meet DR. Eric Erlander DDS, Diplomate, ABDSM
Dr. Eric Erlander’s commitment to and passion for ongoing learning coupled with his own and his families’ struggles with sleep apnea, migraines and TMD led him to expand his dental knowledge to treat a variety of craniofacial pain and disorders. He strives to identify the root cause of pain, so he can treat the source not just the symptoms. He enjoys treating and educating each patient to help them achieve better sleep and health.
Dr. Erlander received his undergraduate degree from Pacific Lutheran University and graduated from the University of Colorado Dental School in 2003. He was also recognized as a Diplomate of the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine in 2018.
“We now have a technique to cure apnea, not just manage it. I am able to help children grow properly, to avoid problems in adulthood. I have been able to improve my own life; the lives of my dad, my children and our patients at the Breathing and Sleep Center of Colorado Springs.”
