What we know about dental

The marketing problems dental practices share

Most dental websites rank for the practice name and not much else. The pages exist but they're not pulling search traffic for "dentist near me," "Invisalign [city]," or "dental implants [neighbourhood]", the terms people use when they're actually ready to book.

On the paid side, dental Google Ads are expensive. Average cost per click for competitive dental terms in Toronto runs $8-$22. Without a landing page built for the specific service and a tight negative keyword list, most of that budget goes to clicks that don't convert.

We fix both of these. We've run dental SEO and Google Ads campaigns long enough to know the keyword patterns, the conversion benchmarks, and the landing page structures that work in the Ontario market.

What good dental marketing looks like

Specific to your practice and your market

A practice in Etobicoke and one in North York are competing in different local markets. The keywords, the ad targeting, and the content approach should reflect that.

01
Local keyword strategy

We map the actual search terms people use in your area, not generic national averages. Neighbourhood-level targeting for services where purchase intent is highest.

02
Service page depth

Dedicated pages for implants, Invisalign, whitening, veneers, and emergency dentistry, each written for the patient's question and optimised for search. One page can't rank for all of them.

03
Ads that don't waste budget

Tight keyword lists, service-specific landing pages, and negative keyword management. We measure cost per booked appointment, not cost per click.

How we work

Three steps. Always in order.

01
Research how patients search

We map how people in your area look for dental care: by treatment, by urgency, and by neighbourhood. Someone searching for an emergency dentist, someone comparing Invisalign providers, and a family choosing a practice all search differently. The plan is built from that data, not from a template.

02
A page for every treatment and area

We build a structured library of pages, one for each treatment you offer and each area you serve, written to rank for the specific searches your future patients make. Each page carries the detail and schema markup that Google and AI tools need to recommend you.

03
Campaigns tuned to patient value

An implant patient and a checkup patient are worth very different amounts, and the campaigns should reflect that. We weight budget toward your high-value treatments, cut the clicks that never become appointments, and follow up every enquiry automatically so no patient goes unanswered.

Common questions

Questions we hear most

How do dental practices get found on Google?

Through dedicated pages for each treatment and each area you serve, combined with a fully optimised Google Business Profile. Patients search by need: emergency dentist, Invisalign, dental implants, kids' dentist. A practice with one services page cannot rank properly for any of them. A practice with a detailed page for each, written around how people in its area search, captures them all. Reviews matter more in dentistry than in almost any other local category, because patients are choosing someone to trust with discomfort.

Can dentists advertise on Google and Meta?

Yes, and dentistry has an easier time than most health categories: the platforms treat routine dental services as standard local advertising, so the constraint is competition rather than compliance. The searches are expensive because every practice wants them. Campaigns pay for themselves when they are weighted toward high-value treatments, matched to dedicated landing pages, and trimmed weekly to remove the clicks that never become appointments. A generic campaign pointed at a homepage burns budget in this category faster than almost anywhere.

What does a new patient cost from advertising?

It depends on the treatment, your area, and how well your booking flow converts, so we give honest ranges rather than promises. The arithmetic that matters is patient lifetime value against cost per booked appointment: an implant case justifies a far higher acquisition cost than a cleaning. Across our healthcare clients we track cost per booking monthly and manage toward it; for one Toronto clinic that figure fell from $95 to $18. We would rather show you the method than promise you a number.

How long does SEO take for a dental practice?

For most practices starting from a thin site, meaningful movement in local rankings begins within three to six months, and Google Maps often moves faster. SEO compounds: a practice that has been building treatment pages, reviews, and local signals for a year is dramatically harder to displace than one that started last month. That's the argument for starting now. While paid campaigns bring appointments this month, the organic foundation quietly becomes your cheapest and most durable source of new patients.

Can AI tools like ChatGPT recommend my practice?

Yes. When someone asks an AI assistant for a good dentist nearby, the tools answer from how clearly and consistently your practice is described across the web: your site, your reviews, your directory listings. A practice with clean treatment pages, strong schema markup, and consistent information is significantly more likely to be named. We build that citation potential into every site and campaign we run, because AI recommendations are becoming a real referral channel in healthcare.
