Stanley Hubert Dent Jr. (August 16, 1869 – October 6, 1938) was an American lawyer and politician who served six terms as a U.S. Representative from Alabama from 1909 to 1921.

Dent was one of the "Alabama Interventionists" who argued in favor of American entry into World War I along with George Huddleston, Fred L. Blackmon, William B. Bankhead, James Thomas Heflin, William Bacon Oliver, Oscar Lee Gray and Henry B. Steagall.

Dent referenced the Wire of Death, the Burning of Louvain, the murder of Edith Cavell, the massacres at Dinant and German raids on English coastal towns in his speeches.

Emmet O'Neal and Charles Henderson both made public statements which were sympathetic to the United Kingdom and Belgium and which condemned Germany, and Titus said "O'Neil, Henderson and Dent" wanted Americans to "fight England's war, but there's another side to the story."
