Dr. Robert Stanley’s professional career began as a Mechanical & Aerospace engineer, providing him with a unique ability to master and share his understanding of biomechanics as it applies to dental implants. A graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Dentistry, he is now known as The Smile Engineer and practices with his wife Bobbi Stanley in Cary, North Carolina.
Dr. Stanley has extensive experience in implant surgery, advanced bone and soft tissue grafting. His implementation of CBCT technology with guided dental implant surgery and guided sinus lift surgery makes planning and placing dental implants predictable and successful.
Dr. Stanley is co-founder of the Stanley Institute which provides numerous training courses on grafting and implant placement. He uses his unique background in engineering and dentistry to help dentists painlessly master 3 key components of implantology: planning, placement, and prosthetics.
