Convenient Access from the Galleria
Westheimer Road links the Galleria to Houston Dentistry at Memorial, about 10 minutes west of Post Oak Boulevard when traffic is moving. Professionals and residents who want a dentist near the Galleria will find our west Houston office on Fondren Rd, outside the district's congestion, an easy alternative. Dr. Dealla Saab keeps every visit one-on-one and never rushed.
From Gerald D. Hines Waterwall Park at 2800 Post Oak Blvd, follow Post Oak briefly, take Hidalgo Street west and turn north on Chimney Rock Road for the short block to Westheimer. Turn left onto Westheimer and stay on it heading west, past the edge of the Uptown District and through the Mid-West neighborhoods. At Fondren Rd, turn right and continue about 0.2 mile north to 2450 Fondren Rd Ste 250, Houston, TX 77063, at the end of a 4.1-mile, toll-free drive.
Drivers with an EZ TAG or another toll tag can take the Westpark Tollway instead; that route runs about 5.5 miles and usually takes about the same time, and it does not accept cash. Rush hour on Westheimer through Uptown adds time, so a little cushion helps for a set appointment.

A Dental Office That Fits the Galleria Workday
The Galleria gives its name to the wider Uptown District, a business and residential area inside the City of Houston and Harris County that covers about 1,010 acres along Post Oak Boulevard and Westheimer Road. Roughly 2,000 companies keep offices here, alongside some of the city's largest hotels and a large cluster of high-rise residential towers. In 1948 this land sat about 3 miles outside the city limits; development took off in the 1960s, and by 1987 Uptown had more hotel rooms and retail centers than downtown.
The Uptown Houston management district looks after public spaces such as the Waterwall, a 64-foot fountain that faces the 901-foot Williams Tower, and Hidalgo Park, a 3-acre green space with a pond south of the Galleria. The Jungman Neighborhood Library on Westheimer serves the area as well.
For people who spend their weekdays near the Galleria, a dental visit has to fit between meetings. Appointments start at 8:00 AM Tuesday through Friday, Wednesday runs until 5:00 PM, and Monday visits are available by appointment, so a cleaning can bookend a workday instead of splitting it. The practice has served west Houston, including the Galleria area, for decades.
Smile Concerns Common Among Galleria Professionals and Residents
Client meetings, presentations and video calls put smiles on display all day. Stained enamel, chipped edges and crowding are common cosmetic concerns for people whose work keeps them on camera or in front of clients. Many patients want a result that looks natural rather than overdone.
Time is the other constraint. A cracked tooth that needs a crown can often be handled in one appointment with same-day crowns, designed and milled in the office, instead of two visits weeks apart. The same in-office Amann Girrbach mill makes same-day veneers possible, too.
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells bonded to the front of the teeth to change their shape, length or color. They suit chipped, worn or slightly uneven front teeth when whitening alone cannot deliver the look you want. Digital x-rays and the iTero scanner keep the planning visits efficient, which matters when you are due back at your desk.
Uptown residents and neighbors in subdivisions such as Afton Oaks and St. George Place share the habits that wear down teeth everywhere: coffee, tea and clenching under stress. Jaw tension from grinding is one reason some patients ask about facial rejuvenation alongside their cosmetic plans.
Not everyone near the Galleria commutes in. Families living in the towers and bordering neighborhoods send children to Houston ISD's Briargrove Elementary north of Westheimer or St. George Place Elementary south of it, and the practice welcomes kids from six months old. That lets a parent's cleaning and a child's checkup happen in one office instead of two.
Polished Results from a Dentist Near the Galleria
Cosmetic Dentistry
Veneers, whitening and smile makeovers refine the look of a smile without changing what makes it yours. Dr. Saab plans each change around the patient's face and goals.
Same-Day Crowns
Crowns are designed, milled and placed in a single visit using in-office milling. For a Galleria professional, that means one appointment instead of a temporary crown and a return trip.
Zoom Teeth Whitening
In-office Zoom whitening lifts years of coffee and tea stains under professional supervision. New patients can get Zoom in-office whitening for $260 after a $40 mail-in rebate.
Invisalign
Clear aligners straighten teeth discreetly and come out for business lunches. The iTero scanner captures a digital model of your teeth, so planning starts without impression trays.
Facial Rejuvenation
Deadline stress often shows up as a tight, aching jaw and deepening frown lines. Relaxing the specific muscles involved, with a minimally invasive treatment, can calm tension from clenching, grinding or TMD and soften those lines at once.
Our guide to Combining Veneers, Whitening, & Orthodontics shows how these treatments can work together in a single, well-ordered plan.
Meet Dr. Dealla Saab
Dr. Dealla Saab brings artistry and a patient-first philosophy to every cosmetic case, pairing advanced technology with compassionate care. Her focus on cosmetic and restorative dentistry suits Galleria patients who want both a healthy mouth and a smile they feel confident showing at work.
Insurance, Membership & Financing
If your dental benefits come through a PPO plan, ask whether we are in-network; the practice participates with many PPO plans, and our team files the claim for you. Without insurance, the Adult Wellness Plan bundles two exams, two cleanings and 10% off Invisalign and cosmetic treatment for $420 a year. Flexible financing can spread the cost of larger cosmetic work.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Houston Dentistry at Memorial from the Galleria, and how do I get there?
We are about 4.1 miles from Waterwall Park, roughly 10 minutes by car. Take Hidalgo Street and Chimney Rock Road to Westheimer Road, head west, then turn north on Fondren Rd to reach our office. Uptown workers who want a dentist near the Galleria can make the round trip during a long lunch break when Westheimer is flowing.
What can be done about a chipped front tooth?
A chipped front tooth can usually be restored so it matches its neighbors again. Small chips may only need a filling, while larger breaks are often covered with a veneer or crown. The office's in-office mill makes same-day veneers and crowns possible, which helps busy professionals avoid walking around with a temporary for weeks.
How much does professional teeth whitening cost?
New patients can get Zoom in-office whitening for $260 after a $40 mail-in rebate. The treatment is done in the office under professional supervision, so the whole process is supervised from start to finish. If you are also considering veneers or crowns, whitening first helps the new work match your brighter shade.
How can I keep coffee from staining my teeth at work?
Drinking coffee with a meal, rinsing with water afterward and using a straw for iced drinks all limit how long stains sit on your enamel. Waiting about 30 minutes before brushing protects enamel softened by acidic drinks. Regular professional cleanings remove surface buildup, and in-office Zoom whitening can lift the stains that have already set in.
Will people at work notice that I am wearing Invisalign?
Usually not. Invisalign aligners are made from clear plastic that fits snugly over your teeth, and you can take them out for client lunches or presentations. You do need to wear them most of the day for treatment to work, but they let adults straighten their teeth without metal brackets.
