Born in Portland, Maine, Dr. Jeffrey A. Neal moved to Virginia at the age of 1 and was raised in the rural town of Nokesville, Virginia. He excelled during his high school years and graduated as valedictorian of his class. Dr. Neal was voted “most likely to succeed,” which he strives to achieve in everything he does. He went on to earn his Bachelor of Science in chemistry from the College of William and Mary in 1993.

His passion for learning did not stop there, and he went on to study dentistry at the Medical College of Virginia (MCV) School of Dentistry. During his time there, he was able to go to Israel to study and teach dentistry. He regards this as one of the most rewarding and humbling experiences of his life. Dr. Neal graduated in 1997 with the honor of receiving the Society of Dentistry for Children Award. While studying at MCV, he fell in love with the life and color of Richmond, Virginia, and decided to open his practice in the West-End suburb of Short Pump.

At present, Dr. Neal offers a wide range of general dental services, and unlike most general dental offices, he personally provides orthodontics, treatments for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, and sleep apnea treatment.

Devoted to continued learning, Dr. Neal strives to be the best he can be with all of the current technology. Almost every year, Dr. Neal completes over 200 hours of continuing education courses to provide superior treatment for his patients. He finished three postgraduate residency programs in TMJ disorders, orthodontics, and dental sleep medicine. Dr. Neal feels that to be a great general dentist, you MUST be well rounded and up to date on the latest scientific research and treatment modalities.

He chose the name “Who Does Your Teeth” for his practice because he believes in valuing his patients on a personal level, ensuring it does matter “Who Does Your Teeth.” Whether he sees his patients in the office or out running errands, they can be sure he will stop and ask about family members by name. He always finds it easy to remember the littlest details because his patients’ lives are important to him, and he always wants to ensure his patient “family” is doing well.

Dr. Neal is a member of the American Dental Association®, the Virginia Dental Association and the Richmond Dental Society. He is also part of a larger worldwide dental society called the International Association of Orthodontics™. There he works with colleagues on a global level to advance the science of orthodontics.
