Our Approach

At Houston Dental Implants and Prosthodontics, treatment is planned with the final outcome in mind. Using advanced digital tools and a prosthetic-first approach, Dr. Stankewitz designs each case by first determining the ideal position, function, and esthetics of the final restoration. This allows dental implants and supporting structures to be placed with precision, supporting long-term stability and predictable results.

Every treatment plan is tailored to the individual, taking into account function, bite dynamics, facial structure, and overall oral health. This comprehensive approach is especially important for complex cases such as full mouth reconstruction, implant-supported restorations, and All-on-4 treatment.

Our in-house dental laboratory plays a critical role in this process. By designing and refining restorations on-site, adjustments can be made in real time to improve fit, esthetics, and overall outcome. This level of control allows for a more precise and customized result compared to traditional workflows that rely on external laboratories.

Dr. Stankewitz maintains a private, patient-focused practice built on long-term relationships and collaboration with experienced oral and maxillofacial surgeons. From initial consultation through final restoration, each phase of treatment is carefully coordinated to ensure consistency, accuracy, and a high standard of care.

Frequently Asked Questions

Credentials That Matter

What is a Board-Certified Prosthodontist?

A Board-Certified Prosthodontist is a dentist who has completed three additional years of advanced specialty training and passed a rigorous four-part examination by the American Board of Prosthodontics. Dr. Stankewitz is one of the few in Houston to hold this “Diplomate” status.

How does a prosthodontist differ from a general dentist?

While general dentists handle routine care, prosthodontists are the “architects” of the mouth. We specialize in the restoration and replacement of teeth using advanced techniques for implants and full-mouth reconstructions that require a higher level of precision.

What are the benefits of an in-house dental laboratory?

Our in-house laboratory allows for complete quality control throughout every stage of your treatment. Your restorations are designed, refined, and finished on-site, ensuring a precise fit, consistent esthetics, and a more efficient timeline without relying on third-party labs.

Do I need a referral to see Dr. Stankewitz?

No. While we work closely with many Houston oral surgeons, many of our patients contact us directly for specialized care, second opinions, or complex smile makeovers.

Which areas of Houston do you serve?

Our office is located in Memorial City. We proudly serve patients from across the Greater Houston area, including Katy, Spring Branch, the Energy Corridor, and Hedwig Village.
