Dental Marketing That Fills Your Appointment Book
Your dental practice needs a steady stream of new patients to grow. We combine dental SEO, Google Business Profile optimization, and reputation management to make sure patients in your area find you first when they search for a dentist.
Most dental marketing agencies hand off a report and hope for the best. We are developers who implement changes directly -- no middlemen, no delays, faster results for your practice.
Why Dental Practices Need Digital Marketing in 2026
The days of relying on insurance provider lists and word of mouth to fill your dental chairs are over. Today, 72% of patients start their search for a new dentist online. If your practice does not show up on the first page of Google or in the Google Maps 3-pack, you are invisible to the majority of potential patients in your area.
Competition between dental practices is fierce. The average US city has 6.7 dentists per 10,000 residents, and every one of them is competing for the same patients searching "dentist near me." The practices that invest in SEO and online reputation are the ones that consistently fill their schedules.
Online reputation is no longer optional for dentists. 88% of patients trust online reviews as much as personal recommendations, and the average patient reads 7 reviews before choosing a dentist. A strong digital presence with consistent reviews, an optimized Google profile, and a fast website is the foundation of modern patient acquisition.

FAQ
Dental Marketing Questions Answered
Common questions from dentists and dental practice owners about marketing, answered honestly.
Dental marketing costs typically range from $1,500 to $5,000 per month depending on competition in your area, the number of services you want to rank for, and whether you need content creation and reputation management. Single-location dental practices usually start around $1,500-$2,500/month for SEO and GBP optimization. Multi-location practices or those in competitive metro areas may need $3,000-$5,000/month.
Most dental practices see measurable improvements in Google Maps visibility within 2-3 months and significant organic ranking improvements within 4-6 months. The timeline depends on your current website health, local competition, and how many dental keywords you are targeting. Google Business Profile optimizations tend to show results faster than organic SEO.
Ranking on Google Maps requires a fully optimized Google Business Profile with accurate categories, complete service lists, consistent NAP citations across the web, a steady stream of patient reviews, and geo-targeted content on your website. We handle all of this as part of our dental marketing service.
Patient reviews are one of the top ranking factors for local dental searches. 88% of consumers trust online reviews as much as personal recommendations. Google uses review quantity, quality, recency, and your responses as ranking signals. A consistent review generation strategy is essential for any dental practice serious about showing up in local search.
Dental practices should publish service-specific pages for every procedure offered, educational blog content answering common patient questions, location-specific pages for each service area, and before-and-after case studies. This content targets long-tail dental keywords and builds topical authority that Google rewards with higher rankings.
Both have a place in dental marketing. PPC (Google Ads) delivers immediate visibility but costs $25+ per click for dental keywords and stops the moment you stop paying. SEO builds long-term organic visibility that generates free patient leads month after month. Most dental practices benefit from PPC for immediate patient acquisition while SEO builds sustainable traffic over time.
Multi-location dental practices need separate Google Business Profiles for each location, location-specific landing pages, unique content for each service area, and a citation strategy that keeps NAP data consistent across all locations. We build individual strategies for each location while maintaining brand consistency across the practice.
We track dental marketing ROI through new patient phone calls, appointment form submissions, Google Maps actions (calls, directions, website clicks), keyword rankings for target dental terms, organic traffic growth, and cost per patient acquisition. Monthly reports show exactly how many new patient leads your marketing investment generated.
