Memorial City is packed with shopping, offices, and a major hospital campus, but a full-service dentist doesn’t have to mean a special trip off your usual route.
Roman Dental’s Memorial Drive office handles routine cleanings, cosmetic dentistry, dental implants, and same-day emergencies all in one place.
Dr. Roman Kotlarek, DDS, MAGD, FICOI has treated patients across West Houston since 1999 and remains one of the few local providers offering in-house sedation for anyone anxious about dental visits.

Same-Day Appointments
Six core dental services cover nearly everything a patient needs: general and preventive dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, dental implants, oral surgery, sedation dentistry, and emergency dental care. Dr. Kotlarek provides all of it himself, so a visit for a cleaning and a visit for a more involved procedure happen with the same dentist rather than a referral to someone new.
Exams, cleanings, crowns, and bridges that catch problems before they get expensive.
Veneers, bonding, and whitening built around the results you want.
Single-tooth or full-arch replacement options, 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, depending on how much you need.
Same-day appointments for toothaches, breaks, and other problems that can't wait.
A few things set the practice apart from the options closer to the mall and medical center:
Memorial City is less a residential neighborhood than a commercial and medical hub, built around Memorial City Mall, a cluster of corporate office towers, and the Memorial Hermann Memorial City Medical Center campus, with apartments and townhomes filling in around it. That mix means a lot of Memorial City’s daytime population is commuting in for work or medical appointments rather than living there full time, which puts a premium on a dentist that’s easy to reach without detouring far off I-10. Roman Dental’s Memorial Drive office sits close enough to fit into that same corridor.
A handful of practical details make treatment easier to plan around:
Dr. Roman Kotlarek, DDS, treats every patient at Roman Dental personally, known for natural-looking cosmetic and restorative work paired with a communication-first approach. He’s practiced from the same Memorial Drive location since 1999.
He earned a bachelor’s degree from Texas Tech University in Lubbock, completed undergraduate coursework at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville, and finished 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 second location and no chain ownership. The team has stayed deliberately small, so the hygienists and front-desk staff a patient sees at one visit are usually the same ones at the next. That familiarity keeps the office feeling more personal than a large, high-turnover practice, which tends to matter most for patients who find dental visits stressful to begin with.
