Why Social Media Marketing for Dentists Matters

Patients are using social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram as search engines to find goods and services. If you’re not keeping your social media accounts up to date with fresh content or actively engaging in community groups, patients may wonder whether you’re still open. Beyond that, having a presence on social media makes you discoverable to your local community, who may have otherwise not realized you were even around. 

  • Brand Awareness
    Social media platforms provide an excellent opportunity to build and increase brand awareness. By establishing a strong presence on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, you can showcase your expertise, share informative content, and engage with potential patients. This helps to create a positive perception of your dental practice and increase visibility among patients.
  • Patient Education 
    Social media provides an effective platform for dentists to educate patients about oral health, preventive care, dental procedures, and treatment options. By sharing informative and engaging content such as articles, videos, infographics, and patient testimonials, you can position yourself as a trusted authority in your field. This helps to establish credibility, build patient trust, and encourage regular visits.
  • Patient Engagement and Feedback 
    Social media allows dentists to interact directly with their patients and receive real-time feedback. Patients can ask questions, leave reviews, share their experiences, and provide valuable insights, which you can use to enhance the patient experience. Social media gives you the platform to respond promptly, address concerns, provide guidance, and demonstrate your commitment to patient care. This engagement helps foster strong patient relationships and promotes positive word-of-mouth referrals.
  • Increased Website Traffic 
    Social media marketing can drive traffic to a dentist’s website, where patients can find more detailed information about services, contact details, and appointment booking options. By sharing links to blog posts, promotions, and other valuable content, you can direct potential patients to your website, increasing the chances of conversion.
  • Competitive Advantage
    Social media marketing is increasingly becoming an essential part of the marketing mix for dental practices. By actively participating in social media, you can gain a competitive edge over your peers who are not utilizing these platforms effectively. It allows you to showcase your unique selling points, highlight your expertise, and differentiate yourself from other dental practices in your area.
  • Targeted Advertising
    Social media platforms offer advanced targeting options that allow dentists to reach their ideal patient demographic through PPC ads. You can define specific criteria such as age, location, interests, and behaviors to deliver their marketing messages to the right audience. This helps to maximize the return on investment (ROI) by focusing marketing efforts on those most likely to become patients.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What should dentists post on social media?

When it comes to social media content, the most engaging posts are ones that are unique to your practice and that come directly from your office! Think team lunches, birthdays, anniversaries, and community events. Keep in mind you want your content to be social and not interrupt users with “business” messages. We encourage our clients to appoint someone in their office to be “in charge” of social media. If this is not possible, we can always help you get your content out there- just send it our way!

Q: When should dentists post on social media?

Don’t sweat a social media posting “schedule.” A good rule of thumb is to post engaging content a couple of times per week. As for the time of day to post, think about when your desired audience would likely be most active. Usually, this is early in the morning, around the lunch hour, or later in the evening. There’s no rigid timeframe you have to adhere to as long as you avoid an overload of content or gaps where your social media gets forgotten for weeks or months!

Q: Where should dentists post on social media?

When deciding which social media platform to use, you need to consider your audience or ideal patient. For most General and Restorative Dentistry clients, Facebook is the go-to platform to reach families and older patients. The Instagram demographic skews younger, so it is great for Pediatric, Orthodontic, or Cosmetic Dentistry clients. Since Facebook owns Instagram, it is easy to cross-post content on both platforms! If you are into sharing super fun and engaging dental video content, TikTok may be right up your alley- this platform has the youngest audience of them all.
