WELCOME TO THE UNTETHERED WAY: FOUNDATIONS OF AIRWAY DENTISTRY
Picture this: A 6-year-old with crowded teeth whose bedwetting stops after palatal expansion. A 35-year-old whose chronic headaches disappear when you address her narrow jaw. A patient whose fourth crown replacement finally lasts because you treated the underlying jaw dysfunction causing the grinding.
These aren't miracles. They're what happens when you master airway-focused protocols so you can address root causes without years of guesswork.
Every "difficult case" in your practice is actually a puzzle piece you've been missing. The worn dentition, the failed bonds, the TMJ that won't resolve—they're all connected to structural issues you can identify and treat. We show you exactly how to spot these connections so you can solve complex cases without referring away your most valuable patients.
THE DAILY FRUSTRATIONS THAT ARE CRUSHING YOUR PASSION FOR DENTISTRY
SOUND FAMILIAR? YOU'RE NOT ALONE
YOU'RE TIRED OF RE-MAKES, RE-DOS, AND RE-CEMENTS
You're frustrated watching the same patient come in for their third crown replacement in five years, and you can see the doubt in their eyes. They're too polite to say it, but you both know something isn't working. Meanwhile, you're second-guessing every technique you learned in dental school, wondering if you're actually helping anyone or just prolonging their problems.
YOU'RE PHYSICALLY AND EMOTIONALLY EXHAUSTED BY REACTIVE DENTISTRY
You wake up with hand cramps, go to bed with a sore back, and spend your weekends dreading Monday morning. Spending 8 hours a day doing the same procedures over and over is slowly crushing the passion you once had for healing people. You fantasize about making a real difference in someone's life, but most days feel like you're just managing problems instead of solving them.
YOU'RE WATCHING YOUR INVESTMENT AND CAREER STAGNATE
You spent $400,000 on dental school to become a healthcare provider, but some days you feel like an expensive technician. You're watching younger dentists open 'wellness-focused' practices while you're still chasing insurance reimbursements for procedures that don't seem to stick. The work that once excited you now feels repetitive and financially limiting.

HOW DO WE KNOW WHY YOU'RE STILL READING THIS?
BECAUSE WE'VE BEEN THERE, TOO
Seven years ago, we were you. Two general dentists drowning in the endless cycle of drill-fill-bill, questioning whether we'd wasted eight years of education to become glorified tooth mechanics.
We were treating the same patients for the same problems year after year, with no real solutions to offer. We knew there had to be more to dentistry than managing symptoms, but no one had taught us what we were missing.
The breaking point came when we realized we needed a complete framework for comprehensive care—one that would let us practice real healthcare without abandoning everything we'd already built.
AND THAT REALIZATION CHANGED EVERYTHING.
imagine for a moment...
What if your patients were leaving as happy as ours?
Laura
Dr. Turner was very patient and let my daughter know what was happening. She is healing up beautifully and everyone who has seen her since has said that she did a wonderful job. Thank you so much! - Laura
Alison
Dr. Graham, Dr. Cook and the team at Untethered are AWESOME! Both my kiddos are being treated for oral restrictions and we have felt seen and cared for this entire journey.
Emily
Dr. Turner was incredibly helpful and friendly. The tongue tie release was fast and pretty painless.
Courtney
After my local pediatric dentist left us to "wait and see" I reached out to Dr. Graham who outlined a plan that included gentle, age-appropriate tools.
Ellie
I can’t speak enough praises for Dr. Graham and her whole team! She has treated me and my two kids. The whole team is so caring and you can tell they are in it to help people and improve their life.
Allison
I cannot recommend Dr. Turner more highly. She is patient, thorough, and incredibly knowledgeable. I also felt that she was not quick to diagnose a tie, and only recommended interventions that she was confident would be effective and impactful.
Amber
Dr. Graham and her staff were extremely knowledgeable, thorough and kind during our daughter's procedure. Dr. Graham exhibited great patience and empathy with me when I had additional questions and concerns.
Tiffany
Dr. Turner and her staff were so welcoming, courteous, helpful and friendly!! Dr. Turner walked my son and through every step and it helped to keep things calm and reduce any unnecessary anxiety for my son and I.
INTRODUCING:
THE UNTETHERED WAY: FOUNDATIONS OF AIRWAY DENTISTRY
We provide complete airway dentistry training to general dentists frustrated with symptom-focused care so you can become the life-changing practitioner you always wanted to be without years of trial and error.
In just 5 comprehensive modules, you'll discover how craniofacial development, palatal shape, and lingual frenulum tension impact everything from childhood bedwetting to adult sleep disorders—and how addressing these root causes revolutionizes both your patient outcomes and your sense of purpose.
You'll finally understand why that anxious child grinds their teeth, why the mom can't shake her chronic fatigue, and why traditional orthodontics sometimes creates more problems than it solves.
This is dentistry that changes lives, not just smiles.

Frequently Asked Questions About Airway Dentistry Training
What is airway dentistry and why should general dentists learn it?
Do I need special equipment to practice airway dentistry after this course?
Airway dentistry is a comprehensive approach that addresses the connection between oral structures, breathing function, and overall health. General dentists are uniquely positioned to identify airway dysfunction early, as signs like narrow palates, crowded teeth, and worn dentition often indicate underlying breathing issues that impact everything from sleep quality to cardiovascular health.
No expensive specialty equipment is required to begin airway-focused practice. The course teaches assessment techniques using standard dental instruments and clinical observation. We do cover advanced tools like CBCT imaging and CO2 lasers, but provide guidance on when and how to invest in equipment as your airway practice grows.
Is this airway dentistry course approved for continuing education credits?
Can general dentists legally practice airway dentistry?
Yes, The Untethered Way: Foundations of Airway Dentistry provides comprehensive continuing education for dentists seeking to expand their knowledge in airway-focused care. Our course meets the educational standards for practitioners looking to integrate airway assessment into their general practice.
Absolutely. Airway assessment and treatment of oral structures falls within the scope of general dental practice. The ADA now encourages dentists to screen for sleep-related breathing disorders. Our course ensures you understand the scope of practice guidelines and when to collaborate with medical specialists.
What airway dentistry techniques will I learn in this CE course?
What's the difference between sleep dentistry and airway dentistry?
You'll master evidence-based techniques including airway assessment protocols, CBCT interpretation for airway evaluation, frenectomy procedures using CO2 laser technology, maxillary expansion methods, and interdisciplinary treatment planning. The course covers both pediatric and adult airway interventions.
While sleep dentistry typically focuses on treating diagnosed sleep apnea with oral appliances, airway dentistry takes a broader approach by addressing the structural causes of breathing dysfunction. This includes palatal development, tongue tie release, orthodontic expansion, and preventive interventions that can eliminate the need for sleep apnea devices.
Can dental associates and non-practice owners benefit from this airway dentistry course?
How much can I expect to earn from adding airway services to my practice?
Absolutely. Associates often have the advantage of implementing airway-focused care from the beginning of their careers. This training helps associates differentiate themselves in the job market, provide more comprehensive patient care, and build valuable skills that increase their worth to practice owners. Many associates use airway expertise to negotiate better positions or eventually start their own practices with a clear competitive advantage.
While income varies by location and implementation, dentists typically see increased case values and patient retention when offering comprehensive airway care. Procedures like frenectomies, expansion therapy, and comprehensive treatment planning often command premium fees and create long-term patient relationships. Individual patient cases vary from $3,000-$12,000 per treatment plan.
