Get to Know Dr. Raval Better
What do you do outside of the office?
I love spending time with my two girls. I make them breakfast, get them ready for school, and get them to bed every day. I also enjoy spending time with my wife and attending family events. We have a lot of family here in Seattle, so there is always a family function somewhere on the weekend.
Who is your hero? Why?
My dad. He has inspired me my entire life as both a dentist and a man. He is so humble and always has incredible life advice for me.
What was the best day of your life and why?
When my daughter, Arya, was born. I had unfortunately suffered cancer at a very young age of 27. It was a very challenging time and it never really sunk in. The day my daughter was born, my life changed forever, and I have never looked back. Nothing is impossible if you put your mind to it!
What flavor ice cream would you be?
Vanilla. It is so smooth and goes with everything. It always tastes good, melts on your tongue, and ideally is from Häagen-Dazs.

Z-Systems Ceramic Implants
Exclusively in Seattle from Dr. Neal Raval BDS, MSD
The Only FDA Approved 100 % Metal Free Implants, Superior to Titanium Implants in Many Areas:
More natural.
Bones and gums integrate better with zirconium oxide ceramics.
Healthier.
Z-SYSTEMS implants are metal-free, biocompatible, conduct neither heat nor electrical energy, and cause no irritation to the immune system.
More sustainable.
Less plaque accretion than on titanium. This reduces the risk of perimplantitis as well as cardiovascular diseases and strokes.
Stronger.
Ceramic is much stronger than titanium.
More aesthetic.
Thanks to the white material, no gray shadows are visible even with thin or receding gums.
More visible.
Ceramic implants are opaque to X-rays, and easier to recognize in critical situations.
What Is A Dental Implant?
The implant body or post is the portion of the implant that is inserted into the jawbone. The implant body integrates with the jawbone and becomes the anchor for the new tooth.
The implant abutment is the portion of the dental implant inside the crown. Sometimes the abutment is created with the implant body as one piece. Other times, it is separate and attached to the implant with a screw. The abutment shapes the gum tissue and supports the crown.
The dental implant crown is the portion of the dental implant you see, but if done correctly, no one can tell it is not a natural tooth. The crown is bonded or cemented to the implant abutment and is commonly made of a ceramic or zirconia material because of its naturally white color and strength.
