Is it allowed to ask patients for reviews?

Yes, as long as you ask everyone (not only happy patients) and offer nothing in return. We set this up in a compliant way for your country.

How do I reply to a negative review without breaching confidentiality?

Never confirm someone is a patient. Reply generally, invite them to contact the practice directly. We provide templates.

Should each dentist in the practice have a profile?

It depends on your setup and country. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it splits your reviews. We look at your situation in the audit.

How quickly can a dental practice see results?

Profile fixes often show within weeks. Competitive cities take a few months of steady reviews and content.

Do you write medical content?

We write clear, patient-friendly pages and you approve every medical statement before it goes live.

Local SEO for Dentists

What matters most for Dentists

Reviews that build trust

Patients read reviews about pain, gentleness and waiting times. A steady flow of recent reviews matters more than a perfect score.

Treatment-specific pages

Implants, Invisalign, emergency care — each deserves its own page so you appear for high-value searches.

Languages spoken, clearly stated

Expat and international patients search for “English-speaking dentist”. Say it in your profile, on your site and in replies.

Emergency and Saturday hours

Urgent searches convert fast. Accurate special hours put you in front of people in pain, right now.

Common mistakes we see

✕ 01One generic “services” page instead of pages per treatment.
✕ 02Not mentioning languages spoken — losing every expat patient.
✕ 03Asking for reviews only once, years ago.
✕ 04Replying to negative reviews with patient details (a privacy risk).
