Is your dental practice ready for how patients choose a dentist in 2026?
Patients donβt just Google βdentist near meβ anymore. They watch short videos, read reviews, check your Google Business Profile, and ask AI tools like ChatGPT for recommendations, all before they book.
Hereβs whatβs driving new patient growth for U.S. dental practices this year:
β
AI-powered dental marketing: smarter ad targeting, personalized patient communication, faster content
β
Video marketing: treatment explainers, smile transformations, and behind-the-scenes clips that build trust before the first visit
β
Local SEO + AI search visibility (AEO/GEO): show up on Google Maps and in AI-generated answers
The practices that adapt now will own their local market next year.
