Dental Marketing - The Australian Way

Friday, June 17, 2011

As an Australian dentist, it's fascinating to look across the pond at my dental peers in the USA and observe the way they are able to market their dental practices. It seems to me that dentists in some parts of the US are able to do almost anything they please to promote their practice on the internet! They are using stock images liberally throughout their websites to illustrate dental services like cosmetic dentistry and teeth whitening. They can use before and after images of their work. They even seem able to use patient testimonials on their websites. They actively encourage their patients to post positive reviews about their practice on other sites around the internet. Their headlines can be, and are, bold and punchy, filled with promises, claims, guarantees and exclamation marks! In many ways it's dental marketing heaven!
