Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a prevalent and chronic inflammatory condition that impacts the health of both the gums and the supporting structures of the teeth. This condition arises primarily due to the accumulation of dental plaque—a sticky film comprised of bacteria, food particles, and saliva—that adheres to the surfaces of the teeth. Failing to remove this plaque through diligent oral hygiene practices effectively can result in tartar or calculus. This hardened form becomes progressively more challenging to remove through routine brushing and flossing alone. It is paramount to identify the initial indicators of gum disease in order to uphold excellent oral health.

Peter Milanovic2024-07-28Dr. Liu is an expert periodontist. My gums were in terrible condition and I was told by numerous other professionals that they were unrecoverable. After treatment with Dr. Liu for 1 year my gums are in great condition. Looking at photos of my gums from 1 year ago to now, I am in shock. I highly recommend Dr. Liu for anyone with gingivitis or gum disease. This can't obviously be cured but you can stay on top of it so it doesn't get any worse. Big thank you to the Gum & Dental Implant Centre!!George Williamson2024-07-27Grateful for the excellent services provided by Dr Leo and his team - much appreciated!!Charlie2024-07-26Happy to receive treatment from a world class periodontist!Malcolm Bedford2024-05-31I have been seeing Dr Leo for at least 18 months. I had a very bad gum infection, lost three teeth and needed a grafted bone implant before I could go ahead with porcelain teeth implants to replace the three teeth I lost. My experience with Dr Leo was that I felt safe and confident in his care. He is very professional as well as caring. Dr Leo’s facility is spotlessly clean and he is thorough. I wouldn’t go anywhere else and trust his judgement and advice completely. Lynette BedfordLorraine2024-04-30I was referred to Dr Leo Liu for my implant. No need to be nervous because Dr Leo is a real gentleman. He is kind and caring and incredibly professional in his work. He carefully explains each step of the procedures. Infection control is spot on. The implant went well without the slightest pain. Dr Leo’s offsider, and receptionist Kelvin, is also very very caring and knowledgeable in every step of the treatment. Dr Leo’s chairside assistants helped me to feel relaxed. Th Wollongong community is blessed in having Dr Leo and his team practice here.
