New Dental Practice Marketing
Launching a new dental practice
is what started everything for us.
Our very first client was an associate launching their first practice 20+ years ago. We helped them build from zero — and today they're the East Midlands' largest Invisalign provider. We know exactly what a new practice needs to grow fast.

Our origin story
We've been launching
dental practices from scratch since day one.
Our first ever client was an associate dentist launching his first practice — and taking a chance on a little-known treatment called Invisalign. We helped him build his brand, generate patients, and grow from nothing. Today he's the East Midlands' largest Invisalign provider, and he's still with us 20+ years later. That's what we do for new practices.
What a new practice needs
Everything from the ground up.
In the right order.
New practices need a different approach to established ones. Speed matters — you need patients in chairs quickly. But you also need to build the foundations that will sustain growth over years, not just months.
Your website is your most important marketing asset. We build or advise on dental websites designed to turn visitors into booked patients from day one.
The fastest way to generate patients immediately. We launch Google Ads campaigns on day one so enquiries start coming in before organic visibility has had time to build.
Correctly configured GBP from the start — photos, services, opening hours, and the review generation strategy that builds local trust fast.
On-page SEO, local citations, and the technical foundations that build organic visibility over time — so you're not dependent on paid ads forever.
Building your local brand on Facebook and Instagram from launch — content strategy, ads, and the community presence that makes your practice the obvious choice in your area.
Systematic review collection from your first patients — building the social proof that new practices need to compete with established ones.
Launch timeline
What happens
and when.
Website live, Google Business Profile set up and verified, social media profiles created, tracking installed. Everything in place before you open the doors.
Search campaigns targeting your priority treatments and "dentist [your area]" searches. First enquiries typically arrive within 48 hours of launch.
Campaigns optimised based on real data, social media presence built, first reviews collected, SEO foundations strengthened. Patient volume grows consistently month on month.
Once core patient flow is established, we build campaigns around your priority treatments — Invisalign, implants, cosmetic — growing case value alongside patient volume.
The practices we've launched from scratch that follow this roadmap consistently become the leading practices in their area within 2–3 years. We've seen it happen 100s of times.
Common questions
New practice marketing — your questions answered.
Before. Ideally 4–6 weeks before your opening date. This gives time to get your website live, GBP set up and verified, and Google Ads campaigns in the learning phase — so you have patient enquiries waiting on day one, not week three.
With the right marketing in place, most new practices we work with are generating consistent enquiry volume within 30 days of opening. Building to a full appointment book typically takes 6–12 months depending on location, competition, and budget.
We typically recommend a minimum combined ad budget of £1,000–£2,000/month for a new practice, alongside our management fee. This is enough to generate meaningful patient volume while building organic visibility in parallel.
If building a private or mixed practice is the long-term goal, start as you mean to go on. It's much harder to shift patient perception later than to position your practice correctly from the start. We'll help you define and attract the right patient mix for your vision.
