Patients don't just pick the closest dentist anymore; they pick the one with the best stories. In the healthcare world, online reviews are the new "word of mouth."

The "Trust Factor" in Dentistry

Searching for a dentist is an emotional journey as much as a medical one. Patients are often nervous and look for reviews that mention "painless," "friendly," or "explained everything."

HIPAA and Review Responses

A common fear among dentists is violating patient privacy when replying to reviews. The rule is simple: Never confirm medical details. Even if the patient mentions a root canal, your reply should stay general. Learn more on our Dentist Reputation Management page.

Encouraging Feedback Post-Visit

The best time to ask for a review is right after a successful appointment.

  1. SMS Requests: High open rates.
  2. QR Codes: Place them at the reception desk.
  3. Follow-up Emails: Send a "How did we do?" note the next day.

Automating the Professional Voice

Medical reviews require a high level of professionalism. ReviewAI helps dental offices maintain a calm, empathetic, and expert tone across all platforms.
