That requires a complete Google Business Profile, accurate listings across directories, a steady flow of recent patient reviews, and helpful content. These fundamentals attract high-intent local searchers who are ready to book.'},{q:"How do dentists get more Google reviews?",a:"Ask every satisfied patient at the right moment — typically right after a positive visit — using a simple, low-friction request. Automating that ask and managing responses in one dashboard steadily increases review volume, which improves your local ranking and reassures new patients comparing practices."},{q:"Is social media worth it for dental practices?",a:"Yes, when used to build familiarity and trust rather than chase virality. Consistent posts — team introductions, patient education, before-and-after smiles, and community involvement — keep your practice top-of-mind and make new patients comfortable before they ever call."},{q:"How much should a dental practice spend on marketing?",a:"Spending varies, but the highest-return move is fixing the fundamentals before scaling ads.
