As 2024 comes to a close, we’re reflecting on a year filled with meaningful milestones for our clients and our team. From clients achieving incredible success in their practices to exciting growth and accomplishments here at My Dental Agency, the year has reminded us why we love what we do.
As 2025 approaches, it’s a good time to take a step back and think about how your dental practice can stay ahead of the curve. Patients’ needs and expectations keep changing, and practices that adapt to meet them will come out on top. So, what should you focus on to ensure you’re not just keeping up, but connecting with your patients and standing out? Here are seven simple strategies that can help you create an experience that keeps patients coming back.
Running a dental practice is more than just providing exceptional care—it’s about ensuring patients find you, trust you, and keep coming back. But how much should you invest in marketing to make this happen? Many practices struggle with this question, often spending too little or without clear direction.

With so many options available, choosing the right marketing agency for your dental practice might seem overwhelming. How do you ensure the agency you select aligns with your goals and can drive the results you’re looking for?
Modern dental practices need every advantage they can get in this digital age. Standing out among the competition is more important than ever to stay competitive and achieve sustainable growth. Therefore, understanding what patients want from your practice is key. One way to do that is through A/B testing—a tried-and-true marketing strategy to optimize ads and other content and increase online visibility.
Many elite dental practices have reservation fees to preserve the quality of their patient base and services. When implemented correctly, a reservation fee acts as a filter, ensuring that patients who schedule appointments are genuinely committed to receiving quality dental care. However, as with any strategy, its success hinges on proper execution.
Optimizing your dental practice’s online content for organic search, also known as search engine optimization (SEO), will enhance its visibility by boosting its ranking in the results. Additionally, effective SEO can be a significant factor in long-term growth for any dental practice dedicated to maintaining a strong online presence. However, for those who are not well-versed in the science of organic rankings, SEO can be intimidating. While SEO can get complicated, the basic concepts are pretty straightforward. Allow me to break it down for you and demonstrate how SEO can help your practice.
Marketing agencies don’t just work with business owners, or in our case, dentists. In fact, most of the time, our main point of contact for a practice is an office manager, a marketing specialist, or a senior team member with coordinating marketing for the practice as one of their many responsibilities. Karinna, who is the marketing liaison for her practice and an MDA Clinical Advisory Board member was kind enough to record a quick video with advice for others in her position.
Word of mouth is still alive and kicking in the digital age. A friend’s recommendation carries a lot of weight if someone is looking for a dentist they can trust. When it comes to word-of-mouth referrals, digital marketing is influential on both sides of the equation: the patient making the referral and the potential new patient they are referring. In essence, a consistent and strong digital presence boosts referrals.
