Why dental practices struggle to keep their marketing going

The diary is full of patients, the phones keep ringing and the website hasn't changed since the last refit.

The chair comes first

Between check-ups, emergencies and treatment plans, nobody at the practice has an hour a week to write. Posting happens when the practice manager finds a gap, which is rarely.

Private treatments need explaining

Implants, aligners, whitening and composite bonding are big decisions. Patients want to understand the steps, the recovery and what to ask before they get in touch, and a price list doesn't do that.

“Dentist near me” goes to the practice next door

Someone new to the area, or with toothache on a Saturday, picks from the practices Google shows. A Google Business profile with no recent posts is easy to scroll past.

Health content needs care

A post about treatment can't overpromise results or read like advice for one patient. Getting the wording right takes a clinician's time, which is the scarcest thing you have.

Your week with Maggie

Your new hygienist starts next month, and the posts are already written.

It's Monday at a three-surgery practice on a busy high street. You're taking on new private patients, a hygienist joins in a month, and the website's latest news is about reopening after a refurbishment two years ago.

You paste the practice's website into cmo.so. Maggie reads it and writes your brand profile: your general and cosmetic treatments, the families, nervous patients and local workers you see, your Saturday clinic, your dentists' interests and the calm, reassuring way you explain things. You correct one thing: you no longer offer evening appointments on Fridays. You also switch on Content Policy Guard for medical rules and add your own rule: never promise a result.

By Tuesday the drafts are waiting, each with a picture in your practice's look: a blog post on what happens at a first visit for nervous patients, a Google Business post introducing the new hygienist with a Book button, a guide to the questions to ask before choosing implants, and a LinkedIn post for local employers about lunchtime appointments. Content Policy Guard flags one line that reads like a guaranteed outcome and suggests a rewrite. Your principal dentist reads each draft and approves three.

The posts go out at the times you set for each channel, and each comes back with its link. Next month, Search Console in cmo.so shows which treatment guides people find, and AI visibility shows how Google's AI answers describe your practice.

What you get with Maggie

A marketing assistant who explains treatments the way you would

Each of those problems has an answer, and your practice still decides what goes out in its name.

Treatment guides on your blog

Clear posts on what happens at a check-up, how whitening or implants work in general terms, caring for children's teeth and what to do with a dental emergency, written for Google and for AI answers. Published to your WordPress, Wix, Webflow or Shopify site, or any site through the cmo.so API.

Blog on autopilot

Found by new patients nearby

Regular Google Business posts keep your practice visible to people searching for a dentist near them, with offers such as a new-patient examination, events like an open evening, and a Book button.

Google Business

Checked against medical rules

Turn on Content Policy Guard and posts are checked against medical rules, or your practice's own. A risky post is held as a draft with a suggested rewrite. These are AI suggestions, not legal or compliance advice.

Content Policy Guard

Your practice, not a template

Enter your website and Maggie builds your brand profile: your treatments, patients, team, what sets you apart from practices nearby, competitors and voice. Every post and picture starts from it.

Brand profile

One topic, every channel

One idea becomes a post for each channel: Facebook and Instagram for local families and cosmetic patients (in beta), LinkedIn for local employers and referring colleagues.

Every channel

Approved by a clinician

By default nothing goes out until someone approves it. Add your dentists and practice manager in Me → Team, so a clinician checks treatment posts and the manager handles the rest.

How it works

From your practice's website to a month of posts in four steps

  1. Enter your website

    Maggie reads it and drafts your practice's brand profile in minutes.

  2. Check your profile

    Correct your treatments and opening hours, add your own rules and choose the channels you want.

  3. Review the drafts

    Your first week of posts arrives with pictures. A clinician approves, edits or skips each one.

  4. Let them go out

    Approved posts go out at each channel's times and every one comes back with its link.

Your other options

Why not just…

The usual ways dental practices try to attract new patients, and where each one runs out.

…rely on word of mouth and the practice sign?

Recommendations matter, but people still look you up before they call, and newcomers to the area don't know anyone to ask. Regular posts give them something current to find.

…pay a dental marketing agency?

SEO and content agencies often cost around £1,000 a month, and you still check every word. Maggie writes and publishes every week from £15 a month, and your clinicians approve each post.

…ask a nurse or receptionist to post?

They know your patients well, but their time belongs to the surgery and the phones. Posting stops on the first busy week, and starts again only when someone remembers.

…write it with ChatGPT?

You still brief it, check it, find a picture and post it yourself, and it doesn't know your treatments, your team or your rules. Maggie remembers your practice and puts posts out on schedule.

Questions dental practices ask

Marketing automation for dental practices: your questions

Still unsure?

What is marketing automation for dental practices?

It's software that does the repeating work of marketing a dental practice: planning topics, writing blog and social posts that answer patients' questions, making pictures and publishing them on schedule.

With cmo.so, Maggie does all of it from your practice's website, and nothing goes out until someone at your practice approves it.

How do dental practices get more patients online?

Dental practices get more patients online by being easy to find and easy to trust: an active Google Business profile, clear treatment pages on their own website and regular posts that answer the questions people search for.

Maggie writes those posts every week for the treatments you want to grow, and Search Console in cmo.so shows which ones bring people to your site.

Is it safe to use AI to write dental content?

It is safe when a qualified person reviews every post before it is published. cmo.so keeps approvals on by default, and Content Policy Guard can hold a post that may break medical rules as a draft with a suggested rewrite.

Content Policy Guard gives AI suggestions, not legal or compliance advice. It does not make a post meet your professional rules on its own; a clinician should still review each post, and your practice stays responsible for what it publishes.

How much does marketing automation cost for a dental practice?

There's a free plan with no card needed. Paid plans are per website and billed monthly: Air at £15 a month covers two posts a day, which suits a single practice, and Pro at £45 a month suits a growing practice posting on several channels.

Founding members get lower prices for good on every plan until 1 January 2027. You can cancel any time.

Which channels should dental practices start with?

Most practices start with Google Business, because that's where people searching for a dentist nearby decide, plus their own blog for treatment guides and patient questions.

Facebook and Instagram are in beta and suit local families and cosmetic treatments, and LinkedIn reaches local employers and colleagues who refer patients. Each channel has its own posting times and queue.

Does cmo.so need access to our patient records?

It doesn't, and it can't connect to them. Maggie works from your public website and the brand profile you check, and never connects to patient record or booking systems.

cmo.so never sells or rents your data, and social channels connect through each platform's official sign-in, so cmo.so never sees your passwords.

Can it write about cosmetic treatments without overpromising?

It can, and you stay in control of the wording. Maggie explains treatments in general terms, and you can add house rules such as no before-and-after claims or never promising a result, which Content Policy Guard checks posts against.

A clinician should still read each post before approving it, because only a person can judge how it will read to a patient.

Can it help us fill appointments with the new hygienist or dentist?

It can help patients find out about them. Maggie writes posts introducing new team members, what a hygiene appointment involves and why regular visits matter, with a Google Business Book button that goes to your booking page.

She doesn't take bookings or connect to your booking system, so patients still book through your usual route.

We offer NHS and private treatment. How does that work?

Your brand profile records what you offer and to whom, and Maggie writes posts that match, such as general care for everyone and separate guides for private treatments.

If you're not taking new NHS patients, add that to your profile and she'll avoid suggesting it.

Can it help nervous patients feel ready to visit?

It can write calm, practical posts about what happens at an appointment, how your team supports anxious patients and what to tell the receptionist when booking.

You review every post, and Maggie learns from your edits, so the tone gets closer to the way your team speaks to patients.

Which websites does it work with?

cmo.so publishes to WordPress (including WooCommerce), Shopify, Wix and Webflow, and to any other website through the cmo.so API.

Each post is reported back with its link once it is live.

We have several practices. Can cmo.so handle them all?

Several websites can sit in one account, each with its own brand profile, channels, schedule and approvals.

If your practices share one website, Maggie can write posts for each location's patients from the same brand profile, and your team approves them in Me → Team.
