Our Story

A Dental Home
Built on Trust.

New Hope Dental Care was built on a simple belief: every family in Raleigh deserves a dentist they can truly rely on. Dr. Eric Ladimer — trained at the University of North Carolina, Indiana Dental School, and seasoned through service in the US Air Force — founded a practice centered not just on clinical excellence, but on genuine, unhurried care that makes patients feel like family.

Our team reflects that same commitment. Many of our hygienists, dental assistants, and office staff have been with New Hope for decades — a rarity in any healthcare practice. When you visit, you'll notice it immediately: the warmth at the front desk, the thoroughness in the exam room, and the clear, honest communication at every step.

Whether you've just moved to the Raleigh area or you're finally ready to find a dental home you can trust, we're here to welcome you and your family.
