Dental marketing agency

Get more patient enquiries from your dental marketing.

Dental marketing works when three things line up: a website built to turn visitors into bookings, ads that reach people already looking for a dentist, and tracking that shows which enquiries came from where. We run all three for dental and orthodontic practices in South Africa, including a 16-practice group.

Our business has grown exponentially since Launch took over our ppc management and web design. We've seen a remarkable increase in leads, helping us grow consistently. If you're looking for a sign on which marketing team to use, this is it.

Cannot recommend Launch enough. The team is super knowledgeable, really helpful and incredibly quick to respond. If you're searching for a ppc agency that actually delivers what it promises, stop your search — you've found the one.

Excellent service from Launch. Their ppc management team goes the extra mile and you can tell they genuinely care about your business growing. In only two months our enquiries grew exponentially. Grateful and very impressed with the results.

Launch is a consummate professional outfit that goes above and beyond for clients. We've been exceptionally happy with the service and results, and highly recommend them for brand strategy, SEO, web design, content creation and lead generation.

We've worked with Launch for a year and the results have been outstanding. Their team is knowledgeable, responsive and proactive, consistently driving high-quality leads. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top ppc agency to grow with.

Working with Launch on our ppc management has been phenomenal. Reports are always on time and they promptly optimise our ads. Their expertise translates into real value for our business. Five stars all the way for this ppc agency.

After using two other digital agencies, we realised what poor service we'd had previously. Launch are on top of their game — great client service, expert ppc management and always hands-on. We wish we'd made the switch years ago.

I would highly recommend this ppc agency. I tried two other companies and none compared to the standards and professionalism of Launch. They've taken my company from working here and there to being fully booked weeks in advance.

I used Launch for my web design project. As a business owner I know nothing about how to make a website work, but the team was patient explaining the road map and process. They learned my thinking and made it happen.

Great service from Launch. I am generally a very difficult person, but the team spent months ensuring our web design was perfect. Very involved, very happy to make changes. Would highly recommend their web design services to anyone.

Most dental practices are paying for clicks, not patients.

You are spending money every month and the diary still has gaps. The problem is almost never the budget. It is that the ads are sending people to a website that does not ask them to book, and nobody is checking which clicks actually turn into a patient sitting in your chair.

  • Enquiries come in, but hardly any of them book an appointment
  • You are paying for people searching for dental jobs, courses and NHS advice
  • The website looks fine but takes ages to load on a phone
  • Nobody can tell you what a new implant or Invisalign patient costs you to win

What actually gets a dental practice more patient enquiries.

A practice fills its diary when the website, the ads and the tracking all pull in the same direction. Miss one of the three and the other two carry the cost. Here is how we handle each part.

1

A website that turns visitors into bookings

We build fast, mobile-first practice websites with a clear treatment page for every service you want to sell, and a booking or enquiry option on every screen. They are structured so Google and AI search tools can both read them, which is how you get found when someone asks an AI assistant for a dentist near them.

2

Ads that reach patients, not job hunters

We run Google Ads and Meta Ads around the treatments that actually pay: implants, Invisalign, veneers, hygiene plans and new patient exams. Careful keyword and negative keyword work stops your budget going on students, job seekers and people who will never travel to you.

3

Tracking that shows which treatments pay

Calls, forms and online bookings are all tracked back to the campaign that produced them. So instead of guessing, you can see that implant enquiries cost you a certain amount each and decide, with real numbers, where next month’s budget should go.

Client story

How we help a 16-practice dental group fill their diaries.

The Dental Management Partners run 16 dental practices across the south of England. They moved every brand across to us almost three years ago. We handle their websites, their Google Ads and their reporting, practice by practice, so each one is measured on the enquiries it actually generates rather than on group-level averages.

It’s quite often the case that you start with a new supplier and the first six months goes really well, but then that quality can drop off. I can honestly say with Launch Digital that Chris, Teags and his whole team have treated us the same way they did at the start as they do now, three years in.

Three steps to a fuller diary.

1

Free practice review

We look at your website, your ads and what people in your area are actually searching for. You get a straight answer on where the enquiries are leaking out, whether you work with us or not.

2

Fix the foundations

We sort the website and the tracking first, then build the campaigns around your highest-value treatments. Doing it in that order stops you paying for clicks a broken page cannot convert.

3

Grow the enquiries

We monitor daily and optimise weekly, moving budget towards the treatments and locations that bring in patients. You get plain-English monthly reporting on enquiries and cost per enquiry.

FAQ

Dental marketing questions we get asked most.

How much does dental marketing cost?

There are two costs: your ad budget, which goes to Google or Meta, and our management fee. Most practices we work with start with an ad budget of R5,000 to R15,000 a month, but the right number depends on your area and the treatments you want to fill. We will give you a clear recommendation on the review call, with no obligation.

How long before we see more patient enquiries?

Most practices see a clear improvement in enquiries within the first 30 days, with full momentum by 90 days. That is why our money-back guarantee runs on a 90-day clock. If the website needs rebuilding first, add a few weeks before the ads go live.

Do you work with practices that already have a website?

Yes. Plenty of practices come to us with a website they are happy with. We will tell you honestly whether it will convert the traffic we send it. If it will, we run the ads against it. If it will not, we will show you exactly which pages are losing you enquiries and what it would cost to fix them.

Can you help us attract implant and Invisalign patients?

Yes, and those are usually where the money is. High-value treatments need their own campaigns, their own landing pages and their own tracking, because someone researching implants behaves very differently from someone booking a check-up. We separate them so you can see what each one costs to win.

Will our ads follow HPCSA advertising rules?

We write ad copy and landing page claims with HPCSA advertising guidance in mind, so we avoid the language that gets practices into trouble: guaranteed outcomes, misleading before-and-after claims and unqualified use of protected titles. Final sign-off on clinical claims stays with you and your clinicians, as it should.

Do you work with more than one practice in the same area?

No. We will not run ads for two practices competing for the same patients, because bidding our own clients against each other helps nobody. When you sign up, your area is yours for as long as you work with us.

Filling your diary is not hard. You need the right agency.

The right website, the right ads and honest reporting on what each patient costs to win. Book the free review and find out where your enquiries are going.
