Dr. Stephen J. Menke

Dr. Stephen J. Menke operates a dental practice on Joplin’s west side, where general and preventive care meet the needs of a neighborhood anchored by midcentury homes and small businesses. The office at 2001 W 20th St sits along a stretch of 20th Street that connects residential blocks with commercial corridors, making it a practical stop for routine cleanings, fillings, or crown work. Dentistry here covers the basics—exams, extractions, and denture adjustments—without the frills of specialty clinics. For those mapping out errands between Webb City and downtown, the location offers a central point without veering into the busier retail zones.

Questions about insurance coverage or scheduling a consultation can be directed to (417) 624-5797. The practice doesn’t advertise weekend slots or extended hours, so weekday planning is key. A map confirms the exact spot, tucked between a quiet side street and the main thoroughfare. It’s the kind of place that fits into the rhythm of Joplin’s daily routines rather than demanding attention.
