Convenient Access from Sharpstown
Getting from Sharpstown to Houston Dentistry at Memorial takes about 5 minutes, and nearly all of it is one straight road.

Dr. Dealla Saab leads the practice and cares for patients of every age.
Begin at the Walter Neighborhood Library, 7660 Clarewood Dr, and turn onto Fondren Rd within a few yards. Drive north on Fondren for about 2.1 miles, crossing the Westpark Tollway and through the Westheimer Rd intersection without getting on either. Our office at 2450 Fondren Rd Ste 250, Houston, TX 77063 is a short way past Westheimer, near where Fondren meets Woodway Dr and South Piney Point Road. In all, the trip is 2.2 miles and about 5 minutes, with no tolls.
Few routes are simpler, but our Google Maps page is there if you want to preview it. Drivers from Westchase and Rivercrest reach us from the west along Westheimer instead.
A Fondren Rd Neighbor for Sharpstown Households
Sharpstown is a neighborhood inside the City of Houston, in Harris County, with a story that changed how the city grew. Developer Frank Sharp began it in the mid-1950s as Houston's first master-planned, car-centered community, with schools, shopping and recreation laid out alongside the homes. The city calls it Houston's largest development at the time it was undertaken. Sharp even donated a strip of land for what became the Southwest Freeway.
That planning still shapes daily life. Curving streets and cul-de-sacs wind through the original sections, and Sharpstown Park & Golf Course on Harbor Town Dr occupies the grounds of the former country club. PlazAmericas, which opened as Sharpstown Center, was Houston's first air-conditioned enclosed mall. More history and park listings are on the City of Houston's Sharpstown Super Neighborhood page.
Green space is never far away. Sharpstown Green Park on Sharpview Dr and the golf course park give families room to play, and the Walter library on Clarewood Dr is close by. Gulfton and Alief are neighbors in this part of southwest Houston.
Fondren Rd runs right through the neighborhood, which is why our office feels so close. Appointments begin at 8:00 AM Tuesday through Friday, Wednesday continues to 5:00 PM, and Monday visits are by appointment. A quick cleaning can fit between school drop-off and the rest of your day.
Everyday Dental Needs Around Sharpstown
Sharpstown is home to many families, with Sutton, Bonham, Neff and other Houston ISD elementary schools close by and Sharpstown High serving many of the original sections. Busy households often juggle several children's checkups along with work and errands. Having a dental office one road away takes much of the hassle out of keeping everyone on schedule.
Prevention is the best value in dentistry. Our article on The Importance Of Routine Care explains why regular cleanings and exams matter for keeping small problems small. Children are welcome from six months old, so good habits can start early.
Accidents and toothaches rarely wait for a convenient day. A cracked tooth, a lost filling or swelling deserves a prompt look, and our team strives to fit urgent cases into the schedule. New patients can use the $39 Emergency Exam & X-Ray, offered to new patients only, to get answers fast.
Many longtime residents also have dental work that has been in place for decades. Older fillings, bridges and crowns can wear down quietly, and a missing tooth can let its neighbors drift. Dr. Saab checks those areas at every exam and explains the options in plain terms.
Treatment Options From a Dentist Near Sharpstown
Emergency Dentistry
Toothaches, broken teeth and lost crowns get prompt attention. With a straight drive up Fondren, Sharpstown patients can get to the chair quickly once a time is set.
General Dentistry
Cleanings, exams, fluoride and digital x-rays form the core of care for every age. Regular visits are the simplest way to avoid emergency trips later.
Sedation Dentistry
Nitrous oxide, oral conscious sedation and IV sedation help anxious patients relax. It is a good option for adults returning to the dentist after a long break.
Restorative Dentistry
Fillings, crowns and bridges rebuild teeth damaged by decay or wear. Crowns can be milled in the office and placed in one visit.
Dental Implants
Implants replace missing teeth with a stable, fixed option. Midas 3D guided implant planning maps each placement before treatment starts.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Houston Dentistry at Memorial from Sharpstown, and how do I get there?
Our office is 2.2 miles from the Walter Neighborhood Library, roughly a 5-minute drive. Simply follow Fondren Rd north past the Westpark Tollway and Westheimer Rd almost to its north end. That makes us an easy choice for anyone wanting a dentist near Sharpstown, with no toll road and no turns once you are on Fondren.
How much is an emergency exam for a new patient?
An emergency exam with x-rays costs $39 for new patients. The visit lets Dr. Saab find the source of the pain and explain your treatment options before anything is done. Our team strives to fit urgent cases into the schedule, so call as soon as a problem starts rather than waiting for it to settle.
Is it too late to start seeing a dentist after several years away?
No, it is never too late. Many patients return after a long gap, and the first visit simply resets the baseline with digital x-rays, an exam and a cleaning plan. There is no judgment about the past. If nerves have kept you away, nitrous oxide or oral conscious sedation can make that first appointment easier.
Do you offer financing for larger treatment?
Yes. Flexible financing is available and helps spread the cost of implants, crowns or other larger treatment over time. Patients with PPO coverage also benefit because the practice is in-network with many PPO plans and files claims for them. Uninsured patients can compare financing with the Wellness Plan, which takes 30% off most other treatment.
Why does my tooth hurt when I drink something cold?
Cold sensitivity usually means something is exposing the inner layer of the tooth. Common causes include worn enamel, receding gums, a cavity or a cracked filling. A quick exam with digital x-rays shows which one it is. Many causes are simple to treat when found early, so it is worth having a sensitive tooth checked soon.
