Dental SEO services that put your practice in the Google map pack, win the "dentist near me" searches, and turn local visibility into booked new patients. Founder-led, free audit included.
Dental SEO is the work that gets your practice into the three places patients look when they need a dentist: the Google map pack at the top of local searches, the "dentist near me" results that appear when someone searches from their phone, and the organic results below.
It is not the same as marketing a restaurant or a clothing store. Dental patients filter by insurance, by reviews, by location, and by specific treatments, and a real share of searches are urgent. The decision leans heavily on your Google Business Profile, your reviews, and whether you have a page that matches the exact treatment someone is searching for, like "Invisalign Vancouver", not just "dentist".
Because a single new patient is worth thousands of dollars to a practice over time, dental SEO pays for itself faster than almost any other local vertical. The leads it generates are people in your area who were already looking to book.
No silver bullets, no proprietary "secret sauce." Just the six areas that move new-patient numbers for a dental practice, executed consistently.
Primary category set to "Dentist" (plus cosmetic, emergency, and pediatric where they apply), services priced, photos of the actual practice, and Q&A that answers what patients ask before they call.
Patients read reviews before they book a stranger to work inside their mouth. We build a steady review flow from happy patients and handle responses without breaking PIPEDA privacy rules.
One page per treatment: Invisalign, implants, emergency, whitening, root canal. Each targets how patients actually search instead of one thin "Services" page that ranks for nothing.
Emergency and "near me" dental searches happen on a phone, often in pain, ready to book the first practice that answers. We optimise for that exact moment.
Ranking is half the job. We make the click-to-book path obvious: online booking, click-to-call, new-patient offers, and insurance details where patients look for them.
Dentist and MedicalBusiness schema, service-area markup, fast mobile pages, and the technical signals Google uses to verify a real, local practice.
Patients do not search for "dentist." They search for the thing they need. One thin services page cannot rank for all of it. We build a dedicated, optimised page for each high-value treatment so each one can rank on its own.
Same four phases for every practice. The work inside each phase is custom; the sequence is not.
We pull your Google Business Profile, current rankings, review profile, and your three closest competitors. You see exactly where your practice sits before we touch anything.

Dental SEO is the work that gets your practice found when someone nearby searches for a dentist. It covers your Google Business Profile and map pack ranking, the "dentist near me" and emergency searches that happen on phones, patient reviews, and pages built around the treatments you want more of. Done right, it brings in new patients who were already looking for care in your area.
You see Google Business Profile improvements (more profile views, calls, and direction requests) within 4–6 weeks. Map pack ranking changes take 8–12 weeks. Competitive treatment terms like "Invisalign Vancouver" or "dental implants Surrey" take 3–6 months to move meaningfully. We track new-patient calls the whole way through so you can see the return before the rankings finish climbing.
Dental search is its own world. Patients filter by location, by insurance, by reviews, and by specific treatments, and many searches are urgent. A generic marketing approach misses how high the value of a single new patient is and how much trust signals like reviews and a complete Google Business Profile drive the decision. We build the strategy around how patients actually choose a dentist.
Most practices invest $1,500–$4,000 per month depending on how competitive your city is and how many treatments and locations you want to rank for. Because a single new patient is worth thousands over their lifetime with your practice, the math works quickly once the new-patient calls start. We build engagements around clear deliverables so the spend maps directly to outputs.
Yes. In Canada, dental practices have to handle patient information under PIPEDA, and review responses are a place practices get this wrong. We set up a review-request system that invites genuine feedback from happy patients and we respond in a way that never confirms treatment details or identifies anyone. You get review velocity without the privacy risk.
No. We work with practices across Vancouver, Surrey, Burnaby, Langley, Richmond, the North Shore, and the Fraser Valley. The dental SEO method is the same anywhere in BC; only the local competition and neighbourhood targeting change.
Usually yes. Most practices we audit rank for their own name and maybe one or two terms, but leave the high-value treatment searches and half the map pack on the table. We find the gaps between what you rank for and what patients are actually searching, then close them one page at a time.
Yes. Your Google Business Profile stays in your ownership, citations are in your name, and every page lives on your website. If you ever leave us, all of it stays with you. That is non-negotiable for us.
A 30-minute call where we pull up your Google Business Profile, your map pack position, and your three closest competitors' profiles side by side. No pitch, no slides. You leave with a list of fixes whether you hire us or not.
