Meet Dr. Richard Liu, Leading Cosmetic Dentist Serving the New England community
Richard Y. Liu, D.M.D., M.MedSc
Healthy teeth, an attractive smile, and self-confidence. Those are Dr. Richard Liu's goals for each of his patients.
Twice recognized as one of America's Top Dentists, Dr. Liu combines his impressive educational background with a high level of artistic skill. His Portsmouth-based practice - which attracts patients from New England and beyond - offers custom-designed tooth whitening, veneers, bonding, restorative work, crowns and bridges, dental implants, dentures, and preventive care.
"I really like this area of dentistry, where you can make a difference in a person's life in a matter of hours," Dr. Liu says. "I see people who won't smile and who cover their mouths when they speak. After we design a plan for them and complete the work, their faces just light up when you hand them the mirror. You can see their whole attitude change immediately, and that's tremendously gratifying," he says.
Dr. Liu's exceptional talents in transforming people's smiles have also made him a regularly consulted specialist for the hit TV program "Extreme Makeover." And he lectures extensively at professional meetings throughout the United States on restorative and cosmetic dental procedures.
Dr. Liu received his Doctor of Dental Medicine from the University of Pennsylvania. He also completed three years of specialty training in prosthodontics - focusing on cosmetic dentistry and dental implants - at Harvard University's School of Dental Medicine. At Harvard, he was also appointed a Research Fellow in Restorative Dentistry and received a Master of Medical Science degree from Harvard Medical School. In addition to his practice, Dr. Liu is currently an associate clinical professor of prosthodontics at both Harvard and Tufts University Schools of Dental Medicine.
In addition to his education and research, Dr. Liu credits his artistic talents for the unique ability he has to create smile "makeovers" that are carefully designed for each patient. He's garnered awards for his watercolor paintings, pencil drawings, and sculptures. "I think the art is a nice complement to the science and mechanics of dentistry," says Dr. Liu. "To get the best-looking results, you really need a good eye for relating the shape of a person's teeth to his or her facial profile."
Thanks to major advances in technology and materials, prosthodontic dental specialists like Dr. Liu can do much more than help you maintain healthy teeth and gums. "I always enjoy watching patients' self-confidence grow and their outlooks transform as we create smiles they're proud to show the world," says Dr. Liu.
