How much does dental marketing cost?+
Pricing starts as low as $799/month and scales up from there based on your goals, practice size, and how many services and locations are involved. We build the plan around what will actually move new-patient volume for you, not a flat package everyone gets.
How do I get my practice recommended by ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, and other AI search tools?+
We run AEO (AI Engine Optimization) alongside traditional SEO, structuring your website, Google Business Profile, and content so AI systems can cite your practice by name when someone asks for a dentist in your area. This is a separate discipline from ranking on a results page, and most agencies aren't doing it yet.
How long does dental SEO take to show ROI?+
Most practices see meaningful movement in local rankings within 60 to 90 days, with new-patient volume compounding from month three onward. Unlike paid ads, SEO keeps producing after the initial ramp-up instead of stopping the moment you pause spend.
Can an AI receptionist actually stop me from losing new patients to voicemail?+
Yes. Our AI voice system answers calls 24/7, books appointments, and handles routine questions so after-hours and overflow calls stop going to voicemail, which is where most missed new-patient calls die.
Do you manage my Google Business Profile and map pack ranking?+
Yes, and for most practices it's the highest-leverage channel we touch. Map pack visibility drives clicks and calls directly, while organic ranking mainly feeds into it as a supporting signal, not the other way around.
Do you work with multi-location practices and DSOs?+
Yes. We run coordinated local SEO, ads, AEO, and reputation systems across every location from one dashboard, with location-specific reporting so you see performance clinic by clinic instead of one blended number.
Do you run Google Ads too, or just SEO?+
Both, plus AEO, website, GBP, and reputation management. We build these as one coordinated system because a practice ranking well organically but losing the map pack, or running ads with no reputation backing them, still loses patients to competitors.
Do you help with online reviews and reputation management?+
Yes. We run active review generation and response systems, because review volume and recency directly influence both map pack ranking and whether a prospective patient calls at all.
Do you tailor marketing claims to my regulatory college or dental board's guidelines?+
Always. Every claim, before/after photo, and offer we publish is checked against the advertising guidelines of your specific regulatory college or dental board, wherever you practice.
What's included in the free audit?+
A real look at your current Google Business Profile and map pack ranking, a website conversion review, and whether your practice currently shows up in AI search results at all, with a breakdown of what it would take to close the gap.
Do you require long-term contracts?+
No. We earn renewal every month by producing results, not by locking you into a contract.
How is Ascendia different from a generic marketing agency?+
We only work with dental practices. That means our team, benchmarks, and playbooks are built around dental patient behavior specifically, not adapted from a template built for another industry.
