    Dr. Harp (DDS) and Daphne (Dental Assistant) are the dream team. They work together seamlessly to achieve the best clinical outcomes for me (a patient with a painful dental history) while putting my comfort first in all they do. I really couldn't believe my good fortune to cross paths with Dr. Harp recently, a skilled and caring clinician who knows her stuff backwards and forwards. I have known Daphne for years in this practice and always appreciated her personal and professional manner. Daphne and Dr. Harp make you WANT to go to the dentist. OK, not really, but if you DO need a great dental team, they are second to none!

    I’m so glad I gave Sunrise Dental in Chapel Hill a try! This was my first visit, and I came in based on a referral from a former colleague. From the moment I checked in, the staff was friendly and helpful, and that great experience continued with the dental hygienist and the doctor. The level of care was excellent, and I felt very well taken care of. If you’re searching for a dentist, I definitely recommend Sunrise Dental.

    Always have great experiences here. Today, Kathy did my cleaning and was fantastically gentle. Dr. Harp is very empathetic and made sure I was comfortable throughout a filling. If you have dentist trauma, I highly recommend this practice where they truly care about your comfort and well-being. It’s changed how I feel about going to the dentist and I’m no longer nervous!
