While Estonia does not have a dedicated, standalone, university-affiliated Sleep Research Institute, active sleep research and clinical sleep studies are conducted through major hospitals and the Estonian Sleep Medicine Association.

Key sleep facilities and initiatives in Estonia include:
- Clinical Sleep Centers: Facilities like the sleep center at the North Estonia Medical Centre and the Tartu University Hospital handle diagnostics (polysomnography) and treatment while supporting clinical sleep research.
- Tallinn Children’s Hospital Sleep Center: Opened in 2023, this is the first dedicated pediatric sleep centre in the country. It is frequently utilized as a hub for both child-specific care and research into sleep disorders in youth.
