Mr Timothy C. Liu

Born in Silver Spring, Maryland, Dr. Liu earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Neurobiology and Physiology from University of Maryland College Park and his Doctorate of Dental Surgery from University of Maryland School of Dentistry in Baltimore. After dental school, Dr. Liu continued his studies by completing an Advanced Education in General Practice Residency (GPR) at WellSpan York Hospital in York, Pennsylvania. He is approved by the American Dental Association's Commission on Dental Accreditation. Now he is excited to be back in the DMV and experience its traffic again firsthand, and we are excited to have him leading the team! Since 2016, Dr. Liu has been working with the Center for Health Literacy to integrate a successful community-based approach into a healthcare system that can improve state oral health knowledge and availability. He co-founded a non-profit organization, Schools for Smiles, to build on a community service that taught oral hygiene, nutrition, and health to Pre-K through 3rd graders. Garnering interest from university clubs, pre-professional programs, and the Maryland school of public health, Schools for Smiles is still helping kids today. Engaging in community service has allowed Dr. Liu to practice the values and beliefs that he holds close to his heart as a Christian, such as serving others through relational love and humility. During a medical mission trip to the Dominican Republic, he had the fulfilling opportunity of reaching out to underserved neighborhoods by helping locals receive medical and dental care that is normally inaccessible. Seeing everyone on the team volunteer their time to see patient after patient in the beaming sun, without ever losing their smiles, continually motivates him to keep serving others with a joyful heart. Dr. Liu is active in organized dentistry, and is a member of the following associations: · American Dental Association · Northern Virginia Dental Society · Academy of General Dentistry · Horowitz Center for Health Literacy In his free time, you can find him filming videos and taking pictures. He enjoys playing tennis and pickleball when the weather is nice. When the weather is bad, he is a Lego builder extraordinaire!
