Websites for dental clinics

A patient with toothache does not browse. They search once, on a phone, and ring the first practice that looks open and close by.

What a patient does before they ring

They search a treatment and a place. Root canal, braces, implants, and the name of their area. Then they look for three things in about ten seconds: are you open, how far away are you, and does this look like somewhere clean and modern. A good share of that search traffic in Bhubaneswar comes from outside the city, from Cuttack and Khordha, where people travel in for treatment.

A single page listing eight treatments answers none of that. A page for each treatment does, and it is also the only version that can appear when somebody searches that treatment by name.

Why one page per treatment matters here

Dentistry is searched by procedure, not by practice. Somebody in pain searches for the treatment, then for whoever is nearest. They type what hurts, or what they want fixed.

Each treatment page can carry what it costs, how long it takes, what the appointment is like, and what happens afterwards. That is the information people are actually looking for, and it is the reason they choose one practice over another before ever speaking to anyone.

What a treatment page should say

  • What it costs, or the range it falls in
  • How long the appointment takes
  • Whether it hurts, answered honestly
  • How many visits it needs
  • What happens afterwards, and for how long

Five lines that most practices leave off, and the five a patient reads before choosing.

The appointment request

Most practices lose enquiries in the evening, when the phone is not answered and the caller moves on. A short form that reaches you as an email, with the treatment and a preferred time, catches those.

It does not need to be a booking system. Most clinics want to ring back and confirm anyway.

What we do not do

We do not put stock photographs of other people’s teeth on your site. Patients recognise them, and a real photograph of your own reception does more work than any of them.

Your Google listing does half the work

For a clinic, the map result matters more than the website. Somebody searching in your area sees three practices in a box above everything else, with hours, distance and a star rating. Most of them never scroll past it.

Getting into that box is not a website job, but it depends on one: the listing has to point at a site that says the same name, the same address and the same hours, and Google checks. A practice with a good listing and a broken website loses the position it earned.

We set the listing up as part of every plan, and we keep the two in step. When your hours change for a festival, they change in both places.

What it costs and how long it takes

A clinic site with six treatment pages, directions and an appointment form is a Business plan: ₹30,000 to build and ₹18,000 a year. Two to three weeks once we have your photographs and the details of each treatment.

Prices do not include GST.

The part that takes longest is usually not the building. It is waiting for the practice to write down what each treatment costs and how long it takes, which is why we send you a short list of questions on the first day rather than at the end.

  • What these businesses tell us

    • People search a treatment, not a clinic name
    • Enquiries lost in the evening when nobody answers the phone
    • A patient cannot tell whether you are close, or open
    • Nervous patients need reassuring before they will ring
  • What the site needs

    One page per treatment, with prices

    Root canals, braces and implants each get a page of their own. It settles the price range, the number of visits and the days afterwards before anyone rings.

    An appointment request form

    Collects a name, a number and what the patient wants seen to, then lands in your inbox. You call back at a time that suits the chair.

    Opening hours and directions on every page

    Tells someone travelling in from Cuttack or Khordha how far they are coming and whether the door will be open when they arrive.

    A photograph set of your own rooms

    Your reception, your surgery and your team, shot once and used across the site. It shows a patient what they are walking into.

    A Google listing kept in step with the site

    We set it up and revisit it whenever your details change, so the map result and the website never disagree.

  • Questions people ask

    Do we need a page for every single treatment?

    Not every one. Start with the treatments you want more of, usually the higher value ones and the ones people search by name. Six to eight pages covers most practices.

    Can patients book online themselves?

    They can, but most practices we work with prefer a request rather than a booking, because the chair time depends on what the patient actually needs. We can do either.

    Will it show our prices?

    That is your call. Practices that publish a range get fewer time-wasting calls. Practices that do not tend to get more calls in total. We will tell you what we see, then do what you prefer. Dentists are also restricted in how they may advertise, so we keep treatment pages factual for that reason, not only for tone.

    Can we add a treatment page ourselves later?

    Yes. The treatment pages follow one pattern and you can add to them. Most practices start with the six they actually get asked about.
