The Challenge

Dr. Patricia Okonkwo built Bright Smile Dental on painless procedures and exceptional care. But at 48 reviews and 3.4 stars, the clinic didn’t appear in the top 5 for “dentist near me” in Austin — and was spending $1,200/month on Google Ads just to stay visible.

Our Strategy
1

Front Desk NFC Plate

Placed at checkout — post-appointment is the highest-trust moment in dental. One tap, straight to Google review.

2

Treatment Room Secondary Plate

Captures patients right after procedure results — whitening reveal, Invisalign completion. Peak satisfaction.

3

10–15 Reviews/Week Cadence

Consistent velocity throughout. Google rewards steady authentic flow, not sudden spikes.

“We used to spend $1,200/month on ads just to stay visible. Now we rank #1 organically for ‘dentist Austin’ and new patient calls doubled. The plate paid for itself in the first week.”
