Meet The Team

Hillsborough's Dynamic Duo
Dr. Lau and Dr. Latta first met at the UNC School of Dentistry in 2013, forming a fast friendship that grew over time – especially after they were selected for the UNC Mexico Project. Together, they spent a year fundraising and planning for a month-long service trip to rural Mexico, developing a deep working bond and mutual respect for each others’ strengths. After graduation, Dr. Latta pursued a GPR in Portland, while Dr. Lau moved to Hillsborough and worked in private practice in the Triangle. Once reunited, they began planning their dream dental practice, Eno River Dental. Despite the challenges of opening during the COVID-19 pandemic, they successfully launched the practice in December 2020. Since then, they’ve focused on growing the practice, prioritizing high-quality service, and assembling a top-tier team to help them achieve their vision.


Dr. Caroline Latta
Having grown up in Hillsborough, Dr. Latta couldn’t think of anywhere better to start a dental practice! She completed her undergraduate studies in Evolutionary Anthropology at Duke University and then made the long trek 8 miles down the road to attend dental school at UNC. After obtaining her DDS degree in 2017, Dr. Latta moved to Portland, Oregon to complete a one-year general practice residency at the Veterans Affairs hospital expanding her skills while treating former military members. While the Pacific Northwest is gorgeous, North Carolina was calling her home and she has been practicing in the Triangle ever since!
When not at the office, Dr. Latta can be found exploring everything the Triangle (and the world) has to offer. She adores her two mischievous cats, Maverick and Ragnar, who were definitely dogs in their past lives. Dr. Latta also has a knack for puzzles, baking, and hand-lettering.
Dr. Latta has many fond memories of her hometown from Hog Day to adventures at Camp Chestnut Ridge, eating at the Colonial Inn to ice skating (somewhat poorly) at the Sportsplex. She has enjoyed seeing the influx of new local businesses and restaurants to Hillsborough and is excited to become an integral part of the local community! These days you’ll likely find her walking along the Riverwalk, downing some food at Hillsborough BBQ, or catching a beautiful sunset at Maple View (okay, she’s there for the ice cream too…).


Dr. Sharon Lau
Dr. Lau grew up in the not-so-little-anymore town of Florence, SC before attending UNC for her undergraduate studies in Biology. She loved the campus so much that she signed up for four more years at the dental school – go heels! After graduating with her DDS degree in 2017, she moved to Hillsborough with her husband, Isaac, to escape the hustle and bustle of Chapel Hill and to return to small-town living. Though she enjoyed working as an associate around the Triangle, she was ready to plant her permanent roots in the Hillsborough area and make a lasting positive impact on her community!
Aside from her passion for creating smiles, Dr. Lau is a bit of a crazy horse gal. Though Scarlett, her redhead mare is no longer competing, Dr. Lau is an active member of the horse community and still enjoys eventing with her horsey friends. If she’s not at the office creating beautiful smiles, she’s probably out riding her horse or taking care of the farm. She and her husband currently live in Cedar Grove with the rest of their four-legged children: an adventure-loving border collie (Ruby) and their three silly, quirky kitties (Abigail, Cleo, & Birdie).
The Laus are healthily obsessed with all things local and love exploring the area! You can catch them getting drinks at Botanist & Barrel, smashing some wings at the Nickel, or grabbing coffee at Cup A Joe.


Dr. Cassie White
Dr. White is originally from Kannapolis, NC. Coming from a long lime of Tar Heels, it was only fitting that she completed her undergraduate studies and dental school at UNC Chapel Hill. She’s a huge Carolina fan! Following dental school, Dr. White continued her dental education through an Advanced Education in General Dentistry program through the University of Florida in beautiful St. Petersburg, FL.
While Dr. White thoroughly enjoyed the sun, beach, and warm temperatures of Florida, she always knew NC was home. She now resides in Apex, NC with her fiancé, Will, and pups – Wilson and Penny.
Dr. White is excited to have joined Eno River Dental as an associate and has enjoyed getting to know all our incredible patients! When she’s not doing dentistry, you can find her traveling, trying new restaurants around the Triangle, and petting ALLL the dogs…cats too – she loves animals! Dr. White is looking forward to exploring all that Hillsborough has to offer and would love to hear your best local recommendations!
