Hedwig Village is one of the smallest Memorial Villages, and a quick hop onto I-10 from Echo Lane gets residents to complete adult dental care at Roman Dental’s Memorial Drive office: routine cleanings, cosmetic dentistry, dental implants, and same-day emergency visits, all in one place.
Dr. Roman Kotlarek, DDS, MAGD, FICOI has practiced in West Houston since 1999 and remains one of the few local dentists offering in-house sedation for patients who avoid the dentist out of anxiety.

Same-Day Appointments
Hedwig Village patients can get six core services at Roman Dental, all from one office: general and preventive dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, dental implants, oral surgery, sedation dentistry, and emergency dental care. Dr. Kotlarek performs each of these personally, so routine visits and more involved procedures happen with the same dentist rather than a referral out.
Exams, cleanings, crowns, and bridges that catch problems before they grow.
Veneers, bonding, and whitening for a smile you're happy with.
Single-tooth and full-arch replacement, including implant-supported dentures.
Extractions, wisdom tooth removal, bone grafts, and sinus lifts, handled in-house for adult patients.
Nitrous oxide, oral conscious sedation, or IV sedation, chosen based on your comfort level.
Same-day appointments for toothaches, breaks, and other sudden problems.
A few reasons keep bringing patients back:
Hedwig Village covers less than a square mile, making it the smallest of Houston’s six Memorial Villages, a tight, quiet residential pocket wedged between Spring Valley Village and Hunters Creek Village near Voss Road and Echo Lane. Its small footprint means most daily needs, dental care included, are found just outside the village limits, and I-10 access from Echo Lane makes Roman Dental’s Memorial Drive office one of the more direct options nearby.
A handful of practical benefits come with treatment here:
Dr. Roman Kotlarek, DDS, provides all treatment at Roman Dental personally, recognized for natural-looking cosmetic and restorative results and a communication-first approach with patients. He’s worked from the same Memorial Drive office since 1999.
He completed a bachelor’s degree at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, undergraduate coursework at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville, and his Doctor of Dental Surgery at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. His credentials since then include:
Roman Dental has operated from a single Memorial Drive building since it opened in December 1999, with no other locations and no chain ownership. The staff has stayed intentionally small, so the hygienists and front-desk team a returning patient sees are usually the same familiar faces at every visit. That consistency keeps the office feeling more personal than a large, high-turnover practice, which matters most to patients who find dental visits stressful.
