Detailed Introduction

Eno River Dental is a welcoming and modern dental clinic located in Hillsborough, North Carolina, founded by Drs. Caroline Latta and Sharon Lau. Both dentists met in dental school and shared a vision of establishing a practice focused on improving the local community's oral health. The clinic opened its doors in December 2020, navigating the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. Eno River Dental distinguishes itself by emphasizing personalized and comfortable patient experiences. They strive to make dental appointments as pleasant as possible, offering amenities like refreshments in the waiting room, TVs in treatment rooms with remote control access, customized neck and knee pillows, soft blankets, and noise-canceling headphones. Their philosophy centers on a heavy emphasis on preventative measures, tailoring treatment plans to individual needs and goals, and providing practical advice for long-term oral health. The clinic offers a comprehensive array of dental services for patients of all ages, including: Diagnostics & Prevention: Exams, cleanings, oral cancer screenings, low-radiation X-rays, fluoride treatments, and second opinions/consults. Treatment: Deep cleanings (scaling and root planing), fillings, crowns, veneers, bridges, partials, dentures, sealants, root canals, extractions, and professional teeth whitening. Cosmetic & Orthodontic: clear aligners (such as Invisalign) and retainers. Protective Appliances: Nightguards for teeth grinding and mouthguards for sports. Eno River Dental is committed to making quality dental care accessible. They work with various insurance carriers, including being in-network with Delta and Metlife, and assist with filing claims for out-of-network benefits. For patients without insurance, they offer in-house membership plans that include preventative care and discounts on other services. They also provide flexible payment options, including accepting CareCredit/Sunbit, HSA/FSA cards, and discussing financial difficulties with patients to find solutions. The team, including Drs. Latta and Lau, aims to build trusting relationships with patients, ensuring they feel respected and informed about their treatment options. Dr. Latta, a Hillsborough native, completed her DDS at UNC and a general practice residency, while Dr. Lau also attended UNC for her undergraduate studies. Their commitment to high-quality care, patient comfort, and community engagement makes Eno River Dental a notable dental provider in the Hillsborough area.

Great all around experience. First time patient. Great communication prior to my visit. Staff were all incredibly friendly and comforting both leading up to and during my visit. Office was clean and well designed/decorated. Technology was modern. Would absolutely recommend them to a friend.

I was initially impressed by this dental practice's scheduling process and communication. The office itself is clean, well-maintained, and tastefully decorated, which created a positive first impression. Unfortunately, my experience with the clinical team did not reflect the same level of care. My teeth didn’t feel thoroughly cleaned after the hygienist finished working. It left me questioning the quality and completeness of the care provided.

The appointment included Panorex and bite-wing X-rays, as well as photos, but it wasn’t clear how these contributed to my diagnosis or treatment plan. I couldn’t shake the feeling that some of these procedures might have been more about billing than clinical necessity. The dentist never introduced herself, so I left not knowing which provider I saw. Her manner felt impersonal and abrupt—jumping straight into treatment recommendations for small cavities that had never been mentioned by my previous dentist of many years. There was no effort to build trust or explain the rationale for these suggestions, and my visible discomfort went unnoticed.

After decades of routine, drama-free dental care elsewhere, I left this appointment feeling unheard and overwhelmed. Based on this experience, I would not recommend this practice to others looking for compassionate, patient-centered care.

You guys were awesome and will be my choice for all future visits. I feel like you rolled out the red carpet. I was not a current patient until my visit today but I am now and have already scheduled my next cleaning. My kids are patients so now you have us all. Fitting me in for an emergency crown was more than I expected and a testament to the level of service you want to provide. Your entire staff was awesome.

Love the comfort provided for the several hours I was there. Could not have been improved upon. Don’t change a thing. You guys rock.

Eno River Dental was amazing. Every person there was warm and welcoming and they did an amazing job. The hygienist was gentle, and the dentist went over everything with me and answered all my questions. Quite honestly, it was like walking into a spa when I first got there. They make you feel comfortable and relaxed. I have found my new dentist!
