Dr. Leslie Hargis chose the dental field as it is “the perfect balance of serving others, art, and science.” Dr. Gerald Hargis practiced dentistry in downtown Burlington since 1979. Leslie is thrilled to carry on the family practice and share this professional experience working alongside him. She greatly values the family tradition of treating and serving the community for another 30 years!

We are pleased to welcome Dr. Valerie Acquesta to our practice family at Hargis Family Dentistry. Dr. Acquesta is a proud native of our beautiful state of North Carolina. She chose to pursue dentistry because of its ability to impact a patient’s health and self-confidence all in a single visit.

Dr. Hargis believes strongly in continuing education and patient education to help prevent oral health problems before they occur, and makes sure to keep his patients fully informed about their dental health.

Dr. Hargis has been practicing dentistry in downtown Burlington, since 1979. He is very excited to now be working alongside his daughter, Dr. Leslie Hargis-Fuller.

He is a member of the American Dental Association, the North Carolina Dental society, and the Triad Dental Study Club.
