About URBN Dental Implants & Invisalign | West U
Two problems often arrive at the same appointment: a tooth that needs replacing, and an arch that has crowded steadily since your twenties. Treating them in the wrong order is a common and expensive mistake, because an implant is fixed in bone and will not budge when aligners start shifting everything around it.
URBN Dental's West U office at 5578 Weslayan Street handles both sides of that under one roof, which is the practical case for going there: sequencing gets settled inside one treatment plan instead of being negotiated between two practices. Dr. Stephanie Vu leads the location, which sits between Bellaire and Rice Village and draws from West University Place, Southside Place and the Greenway and Upper Kirby area. Implant work uses the Straumann system, orthodontic cases run on Invisalign, and diagnostics include digital radiography, CBCT three-dimensional scanning and an AI-assisted read of x-rays. Sleep apnoea appliance therapy is also offered. Hours are 8am to 5pm Monday through Friday with an 8am to 2pm Saturday, and part of each day stays unbooked for emergencies — a fractured tooth, a crown that came off in food, swelling that has kept you awake.
The sequencing question, put simply: if teeth are going to be straightened, aligners generally come first so the implant can be placed into its final position, with a temporary bridging the gap in the meantime. Where an extraction has already happened and the space has been open a while, expect grafting to enter the discussion. Neither treatment is quick. Aligner cases typically run several months to over a year, and implant integration takes three to six months before the permanent crown goes on.
This is one of more than a dozen URBN locations across Houston and Katy, which cuts both ways and is worth knowing. It means a consistent process and the option of being seen at a sister office when your own diary is full. It also means you are dealing with a group rather than a solo dentist, so if continuity matters to you through a long case, ask to be booked with the same clinician each visit. Financing plans and a discount plan for patients without insurance are offered.
The West U location of URBN Dental, at 5578 Weslayan Street between Bellaire and Rice Village, led by Dr. Stephanie Vu. It combines implant dentistry on the Straumann system with Invisalign, crowns, bridges, root canals, veneers, whitening, wisdom tooth removal, dentures and sleep apnoea appliances, planned with CBCT scanning and digital radiography. Weekday hours run 8am to 5pm with a Saturday morning to 2pm, and same-day appointments are held back for dental emergencies.

All of the staff were professional, caring, and kind. They reviewed their findings with me, explained the plan of care, and provided an estimate of the cost of the procedures before proceeding with treatment.
I'm a new patient at Urbn Dental, but I am very pleased. I found the facility to be very clean and orderly. I also found the staff to be efficient and professional, but also very friendly. Highly recommend this practice.
It is the last I love a business that where women dominate the work environment with their presence now it's time for them to take over the 🌍 Force men to step down all the politics and let women take over the world and clean it up

I had an excellent experience visiting Dr. Okewunmi! From the moment I arrived, the staff were friendly, professional, and made me feel comfortable. Dr. Okewunmi was thorough, patient, and took the time to explain every step of my treatment, which really put me at ease. The care and attention to detail were impressive, and I left feeling confident that I received top-notch dental care. I highly recommend Dr. Okewunmi to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate dentist!
I had a great experience with Dr. Vu, Ester, and Anyia! They were so patient, understanding, and genuinely fun to work with. They made me feel comfortable and explained every step of the process. So happy to have found a dentist I’ll return to for years!
Hands down one of the best dental visits I’ve had. Anyia is a STAR super friendly, locked in, and made everything smooth and stress free from the X-rays to the treatment just amazing! Jojo took off my braces and removed all the glue flawlessly my teeth felt brand new before the cleaning. Esther was gentle and did a great cleaning. Dr. Vu she is elite, confident, and is very knowledgeable I will definitely be back. Clean office, great energy, and a team that actually cares. URBN Dental West U is the move!!!
