Do Facebook ads work for dentists?

Yes, when the offer is clear, the creative builds trust, and the lead path is simple. The biggest failure mode is vague “general dentistry” ads that don’t give patients a reason to act.

How much should a dental practice spend on Facebook ads?

It depends on your market and service line. Most practices start with a small, testable budget, then scale only after cost per lead and lead quality prove the numbers work.

Should I use lead forms or a landing page?

Lead forms are faster and can work well for urgent needs. Landing pages tend to win for high-trust consults (implants, invisalign) because you can educate and handle objections before the form.

How fast will we see results?

You’ll usually see signal within weeks as creative tests run. Consistent wins come from iteration: tightening the offer, improving follow-up, and rotating proof-based creative over time.

Can you run Facebook and Instagram ads together?

Yes. We run Meta campaigns across Facebook and Instagram, then optimize placements based on conversion performance, not just cheap clicks.

Do you handle creative and landing pages too?

Yes. Creative, landing page alignment, and tracking are part of the system, because ads don’t work when the click experience is weak.

How do you track calls and booked consults from Meta ads?

We track calls and forms, then tie those conversions back to campaigns so you can see what produced real inquiries, not just impressions or traffic.

Do you guarantee a specific number of leads?

No. We focus on controllable levers: offer clarity, creative quality, landing page conversion, tracking, and continuous optimization.

lead forms vs landing pages

most wasted spend happens after the click. we choose the lead path based on your service line, your front desk bandwidth, and how much trust patients need before they book.

best for: emergency, specials, fast response teams

option

landing pages
