BDSc (Qld), DClinDent (Special Needs Dentistry), General Dentist

Dr David Fu is a male General Dentist who speaks Mandarin (as well as English).

Hi, I’m Dr David Fu and have recently graduated from my Doctor of Clinical Dentistry (DClinDent) in Special Needs Dentistry at the School of Dentistry, University of Queensland, Australia. I graduated from my Bachelor of Dental Science (UQ) in 2010 and have worked at various public and private clinics in Queensland since, and have been principal dentist at several Queensland Health dental clinics.

I specialise in treating adult patients with medical complexity, mental health conditions and intellectual and/or physical disabilities. I am known to be a passionate advocate for patients with special needs and have experience in dental treatment under general anaesthetic, conscious sedation, as well as treating patients in a hospital setting. There is currently a gap in Australia for patients with special needs that were being treated by the paedodontic field when they were children. I hope to contribute to the community and provide much needed care for these patients.

I thoroughly enjoy treating patients who require extra needs and am extremely accommodating for a wide range of patients. I have a particular interest in preventive and restorative dentistry as well as oral surgery. At Smile Perfection Dental Clinic, I am able to provide nitrous oxide sedation (“happy gas”) and am currently working with Dr. Helen Ng on providing dental care under GA. I also enjoy helping improve the dental experience for those with dental anxiety or phobia, as no one enjoys going to the dentist!
