What Google Ads for dentists does for a practice
- Checkups and cleanings, emergency appointments, children's dentistry, whitening and implant consultations each get their own ads and their own page.
- Emergency ads can run early and on weekends; checkups run in your opening hours.
- Your ads show to people in the neighborhoods you mark on the map.
- Searches that became booked appointments become exact-match keywords.
The searches that waste a dentist's money
- "dental assistant jobs" and "dentist salary": people after work, not an appointment.
- "dentistry degree" and "dental hygienist course": students.
- "how to fix a chipped tooth at home": DIY.
- Treatments you don't offer: type "braces" or "dentures" once and those searches stop seeing your ad.
- Other practices' names: someone who already knows where they're booked.
Toothaches, checkups and implant consultations
A good dental inquiry is someone in pain who needs to be seen today, a family booking checkups, or an adult weighing up implants. The emergency page leads with your number; the implant page offers a consultation, because nobody books implants straight from an ad. Late in the year, many patients book to use their dental benefits before they reset.
You read the ads, you own the ads
A dental practice is responsible for its own advertising, even when someone else writes it (in Australia, Ahpra's advertising guidelines say so). So Google Ads for dentists here writes each new campaign out for you to read and edit, and nothing spends until you switch it on. If Google refuses an ad under its healthcare policy, the daily check tells you why in plain words. Cosmetic clinics and physiotherapists run on the same footing, and every other profession is on the full list.
