Top 58 Dental Marketing Ideas

BY: DR MIKE HAMILTON // INCEPTION DENTAL WEBSITES, OWNER

This list of dental marketing ideas comes from years of building a large practice of my own.  I'm a chiropractor, but I found that the strategies I used to build a huge practice were the same things a dental office could do to explode their practice.

I also found that my profession was much more difficult than marketing dental services. The same programs I used are actually much more fruitful in the dental field.

I hope this information is as helpful for you as it was for me.
