Social Media Posts Ideas for Dentists

There are 214 million users on Facebook, and over 100 million users on Instagram in the USA at the time of this post.

If marketing and generating more patient appointments is important to you, then social media marketing is a MUST.

Whether you are an associate dentist, partner in a dental practice, or running your own successful practice – you can leverage social media in an easy and effective way to generate more attention to your brand.

One question we often get from our dentist clients is “What should I post on my Facebook or Instagram?”

Below are 5 Social Media Post ideas you can start using today.

 

1. Involvement in the Community

 

Are you a member for your local dental association? Maybe you sit on the board of a non-profit organization you’re passion about….

By posting photos of your involvement in the local community or dental community, you build a personal connection with your patients who see you in a “new light” more than just being their dentist.

 

2. Your Happy Patient Smiling

 

Every dentist has at least a handful of patients who are extremely satisfied with their work. With their permission, share their experience with the rest of the world.

 

 

3. Educational Posts & Interesting Facts

 

As a dentist, you have a wealth of knowledge to share with the rest of the world when it comes to their oral healthcare.

 

Utilize fun facts, statistics and graphics to capture the attention of patients, and educate them. Some example educational posts can be about:

• What makes your practice unique

• Best practices to maintain healthy oral care

• Steps of a certain procedure (ie. dental implants)

 

 

4. Natural Photo of You & Patient

 

By capturing a photo of you and a happy patient, it gives imagination to prospective patients of being your happy patient themselves.

The photo can be in the dental chair or even in the waiting room of your practice – whatever looks natural and authentic to you!

 

5. Before / After Smile Post

After referrals & great reviews, showing your before and after work can be one of the best ways to generate new patient appointments.

If you don’t have any before / after photos – START taking them now! It’s never too late.
