Your ads can be “working” and your diary can still be empty. That’s the painful gap we tackle as we get practical about paid advertising for dentists and dental practice owners heading into 2026. I’m joined by co-host Dr Dan Shaffer and marketing specialist Rahil as we unpack what’s genuinely changed on Meta, why the algorithm now pushes towards creative that feels bespoke to the viewer, and why “creative is key” is no longer a catchy line but the deciding factor in performance.

We compare Facebook and Instagram ads with Google Ads (PPC) in a way that makes sense for real-world patient acquisition. Google often brings higher intent leads because people are actively searching for implants, Invisalign, emergency appointments, and cosmetic treatments. Meta can generate more eyeballs and cheaper leads, but those enquiries can be harder to contact or less ready to book. Our north star stays the same throughout: bums on seats, not vanity metrics.

We also get specific on execution: when to use a conversion-focused landing page, when a Meta lead form helps, and why sending traffic to a generic homepage usually breaks the journey. We talk testing culture (static vs video, captions, colours, variations), boosting winning organic posts, and how AI is reshaping marketing through longer search queries, Google AI Overviews, and zero-click searches. If you’re trying to set a smarter dental marketing budget and build a funnel that converts, this one will sharpen your thinking.
