"I just called to say a big thank you. I just received my first patient from 1stDDS.com, a $25,000 case and I started it today. I can’t believe it! I don’t know what you are doing, but it’s working. Again, thank you. 1stDDS.com does work! Now I'm getting three to four new patients a month!"

How Prospective Dental Patients Find You

There are two types of prospective dental patients on the Internet. The first type of patient is searching for information. She wants to know more about a specific dental question before selecting a dentist. The second type is searching for a specific type of dentist locally for immediate services. Your lDA marketing strategy covers both types of dental consumers.

Let’s start with the first type, new patients searching information on a specific dental topic. These people are searching for information on "Cosmetic Dentistry", "Dental Implants", "Dental Braces" and over 1,000 other dental phrases.

To reach these high-value prospective patients, we created 15 specialized "Dental Information Centers" on the Internet. Each month we get more than 100,000 visitors and up to 25,000 requests for a doctor. This segment of your new patient lead generation program is called 1stDDS.com.

"In reviewing my production for last year (2006), I determined that my web marketing campaign with Internet Dental Alliance brought in 226 referrals! So far YTD for 2007, I have had 22 referrals and $12,790 in production and have received a large cosmetic case that already completed cosmetic imaging and the patient has a treatment plan for $16,000 in cosmetic reconstruction."
